Michelle Rodriguez has opened up about how her strict Jehovah's Witness upbringing initially clashed with her career in Hollywood, saying the industry felt like the "devil's world" to her as a young woman. The "Fast & Furious" star, who has worked in entertainment for more than 25 years, reflected on the tension between her religious background and the values and lifestyle often associated with the entertainment business.

Rodriguez described how the strict moral framework she was raised in made adapting to Hollywood culture difficult early in her career, as she navigated a world that seemed at odds with the beliefs instilled in her as a child. Despite the initial clash, she went on to build a lasting career, becoming known for roles in major franchises including the "Fast & Furious" film series.
