Eiza Gonzalez is an up-and-coming Hollywood actress who came into the spotlight after being spotted with Liam Hemsworth in Las Vegas shortly after news broke of him and Miley Cyrus calling off their engagement. Gonzalez who left her native country of Mexico to realize her Hollywood dreams, was a rising star, making her debut acting debut in 2007 with "Lola, Erase Una Vez" ("Lola, Once Upon A Time"). She was handpicked by "Rebelde" producer Pedro Damián out of hundreds of girls who auditioned for the lead role. Off the bat she was the main character in a telenovela and had the task of recording to musical albums that would also double as a soundtrack to the show. Eiza's last telenovela in Mexico ended earlier this year and it was titled "Amores Verdaderos." The soap was the top rated program nightly in all of Mexico, where she played the bratty and stubborn "Nikki Brizz," who suffered from anorexia and bulimia. With Liam distancing himself from her and saying he's single we can prove to you that she does not need him and is way better off without him. It takes a lot of courage to leave a comfortable position and venture into new territories and these are the 10 Reasons Why We Love Eiza Gonzalez:

1. Double Threat: Eiza has experience singing and acting as most of her telenovelas have needed her to do both. "Lola" proved she could do both and that is why Nickelodeon Latin America also casted her in "Sueña Conmigo" ("Dream of Me") where she had a singer alter ego. She later went on to release her solo album and recorded a hit track that was played during her scenes on "Amores Verdaderos." 2. Risk Taker: Eiza is 23 years old and she had found success in Mexico making telenovelas where she could have landed herself another lead role after her last performance proved to be a hit. Many actresses dream of landing the primetime telenovela and Eiza did. Most actresses would have just continued on the same path, but Gonzalez has taken a risk to venture into new territories. Not many people will leave everything behind to follow an unknown path. 3. Goal Oriented: She has a sole goal and it is to shine in Hollywood. Yes, many laughed at her and thought she was just going to be another Paty Manterola or Kate del Castillo, that left telenovelas and have not been able to break out.

4. Hit Right Off The Bat: Eiza was able to create buzz around her departure from Mexico. Not only that, but only a couple of days after her establishing herself in Los Angeles, she had already grabbed all the headlines from every magazine and internet site. Her meet-up with Hemsworth caused worldwide sensation and put Eiza on the map. 5. Well Connected: Eiza is no ordinary starlet, she has some good connections in the business, or a really good agent. During the whole Liam scandal, she was able to score her first Hollywood leading role. How did that happen so fast? She is set to play the starring role in "All Hail The Squash Blossom Queen" early next year. She was then spotted with socialite and Kim Kardashian's BFF Brittny Gastineau during a girls night out. Now this girl, knows her way around the social scene! She has also landed a role in the "From Dusk Till Dawn" television adaptation, working with acclaimed director Robert Rodriguez.

6. Stylish: Eiza loves fashion and why wouldn't she? Her mother is runs a model management agency and is one of the judges of "Mexico's Next Top Model." Gonzalez grew up with her mother, the fashionista and knows what's hot. Good fashion always gives you the in into the Hollywood scene. 7. Fresh Face: The actress and singer has a fresh face in Hollywood and we're not talking about her unbelievable transformation and nose jobs. She is just someone we don't see much of in Hollywood and being Latina, we can only root for her. 8. Inspirational: Eiza loves Twitter and often posts very deep thoughts. Yesterday she reminded us that Karma still exists, tweeting, "KARMA KARMA KARMA remember it DOES exist." Last week she said, "Lately I've been loosing sleep dreaming about the things that we could be." So cryptic, yet so inspiring.

9. Fun: We don't know Eiza personally but she looks like she is so much fun. In a Tweet on Nov. 14 she wrote, "Pura pinshi pari." The girl was at a party and clearly loving every minute of it. 10. Unpredictable: Following Eiza's career is like walking through a dark-lit room, you never know what you're going to come across with. A few days ago the actress left Twitter and claimed to be abandoning it for "a while". She soon had a change of heart and came back to tell us about her new project she was excited about. During Liam-gate she stormed off a press conference in Mexico because she didn't want to talk about it. It's this erratic behavior that keeps us so captivated and following her every move and the main reason why we love Eiza Gonzalez. Sound-off with your thoughts below on why YOU love Eiza!
