'On My Block' Cast Competes in a Compliment Battle

I hope to be as amazing as you are one day,

and maybe you can teach me over coffee.

[group cheering]

That was like a compliment and a date.

The answer is yes.

I will take this ring off,

husband who?

[group laughing]

Hey, I'm Diego Tinoco.

Hi, I'm Sierra Capri.

I'm Jason Genao.

Julio Macias.

What up, I'm Jessica Marie Garcia.

And I'm Brett Gray.

And we're the cast of On My Block.

And we're here with Teen Vogue,

and we're gonna do a compliment battle.

[group laughing]

[upbeat happy music]

[upbeat happy music]

Jason

for me?

Jason, I just have to say,

you have to win all the awards possible

for this role as Ruby,

or listen, I will riot!

All right? I will the four seasons down.

Okay?

[mouth exhale sounds]

Yo Diego.

Diego can hit me with a car

and I'll say thank you.

[group cheering]

And he might,

he's not the best driver.

[group chattering]

He has hit me with a car,

and I have said thank you.

Listen,

I'm convinced that you're gonna be a generational talent.

You'll have an iconic movie wrapped by the time you're 30.

[group cheering]

[Jessica] I just got chills cause that's real.

If I'm in a bad mood

and I see your pictures,

I'm automatically fine.

[group awe]

Wow!

That's sweet.

Mhmm, cause you fine.

Cause you fine.

Bro, Jason looks so good even when he's not trying.

Jason you could just look at the camera

and it looks like you're-

It's those puppy dog eyes.

Aw, thank you!

[group chattering]

And the bone structure,

it's the jaw for me.

It's the golden eyes.

It's the butterscotch eyes for me.

[Brett] Yeah.

Wow.

[group laughing]

What y'all doing after this?

You can be mean when you look this clean.

[group cheering]

And that was replying to something you said,

so you must have said something.

I said, I think the tweet was,

I'm a classic man.

Oh perfect.

Sierra,

Your facial expressions

were just as entertaining as your lines this season.

Oh, thank you!

You a star baby.

Oh, elitecapri?

See this person knows that I like elite.

This might be,

no this might be Sierra's-

I was about to say, this might be mom.

[group laughing]

Might be mom.

Thanks mom!

Love you!

Jessica Marie Garcia.

Wow,

thank you for the way you've shown

so many of us how to love ourselves.

Even when the people around us take us for granted.

What a character.

And then the emoji, with like, the hearts.

Oh my gosh!

I'm too hormonal for this.

[group chattering]

Who's taking you for granted girl?

Julio,

You are gonna win all the awards with that range.

And you can apparently pull off every hairstyle.

That is very true.

Facts.

[group chattering]

You're perfect.

Your name should become a compliment.

Yes!

Facts! Facts!

If anyone calls you Brett Gray,

You know that they love you.

[group chattering]

Your highlight is brighter than my future.

Looking like a glazed donut goddess.

[group laughing]

Someone's shooting their shot.

I'll be your crispy creme.

Teen Vouge, Teen Vouge.

For you.

Brett.

Yes.

You are a living legend in the making.

And he is just getting started y'all.

I know who this is.

That's scary and exciting.

[group chattering]

[Diego] You know exactly who this is.

That was Rob Murat.

[group cheering]

Yeah, he plays the coach.

We write music together sometimes.

So Julio Macias.

You are so beautiful no matter the role.

There is no better actor.

And I don't think any of us could disagree with you.

Yeah.

Thank you spicy avocado.

Jason Genao.

[Jason] Mhmm.

Bro,

I really like your personality.

Not just in On My Block,

but in real life.

[group awe]

Thank you so much.

[indistinct]

So great hanging out with you that time.

Sierra,

you are officially one of my favorite celebrities now.

[group agreeing]

Your range is amazing

and has sent me on an emotional rollercoaster,

dead eyes 100%.

I love Ruby so much.

[Brett] Come through.

Thank you, thank you.

I mean he can be funny,

and sad,

and scary,

and a little-

That makes me feel so good that y'all like my performance.

I love it.

For Jessica.

Which makes me happy.

And this is so true.

Honestly, your character has made has made me realize

that I have to love myself even more

if people don't like you.

[Brett] Wow.

[Sierra] Self-love.

Jasmine is all about self-love.

100%.

Ready?

Mhmm.

Brett!

[Brett] Oh my gosh!

There was a lot of exclamation points.

Okay.

[group laughing]

The audacity

Is this a compliment, or like a...

to be this good.

Oh!

Fire, fire, fire emoji.

Wow.

Wow, thank you so much.

I really blame it on my co-stars.

They bring it out of me,

and they um...

Which one?

specifically everyone except Jason.

He usually gives me the least in the scenes to work with.

He usually is like asleep while my coverage is happening.

He's like, look at this tennis ball,

I gotta go to bed.

[group laughing]

Okay...

Okay.

Okay, this is for Julio.

[clearing throat]

Your ability to act all the different characters that you do

is amazing.

Yeah, it is.

Thank you.

[group agreeing]

Diego Tinoco.

I am such a fan of yours Diego.

You truly do brighten my day.

Thank you for representing the Dominican community

in the acting community.

[group agreeing]

There's not a lot of Dominican's out here,

we doing it.

And this man can cook!

Yes! I got Jess to love [indistinct].

And she said she hated it.

And I did too.

Because before it was like a caramelized boogie,

and like now

[group laughing]

there was like consistency

and it was delicious.

Jess Marie Garcia.

I love you so much.

I love your energy.

Please keep up with the inspiration.

This means a lot to me too,

because I feel like a lot of people,

especially as you grow older,

and as a teenager too,

they tell you to like,

like kind of stiffen your energy.

And like, you're too much, you're too much.

And it's like, No!

Too much is great.

Be you,

like love that.

Like I can't tell you all the things

that I was made fun of as a kid

are how I'm here today.

So don't lose that.

@TheSierraCapri is a babe.

[group agreeing]

Babe of all babes.

Did you hear me?

Whew.

I didn't hear, what did you say?

What was that?

What did you say?

[group chattering]

Say that again.

Whew.

[group laughing]

Is that all you or is that on the thing?

It's on the thing.

May your day be amazing like you, heart.

Have a good day at work.

You are special and I love you.

[Sierra] Aww.

I've never seen a famous Netflix actor

who doesn't care if he's known on social media or not.

Big respect from me to you Diego Tinoco.

Is that true?!

Wait a second.

[group banter]

Brett.

[Sierra laughing]

I just wanted to say that

you have a beautiful smile.

Aww.

That's exactly what it says.

Thank you so much.

I actually paid a lot of money for this smile.

[group laughing]

I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Thank you guys so much for watching.

Your compliments mean the world to all of us.
