Rodriguez now says her complicated love life is off limits and mislabeling her is a sign of lazy reporting. Showbiz Spy reported the she said, “If I wanted to tell people what I do with my vagina, I’d have made a sex video a long time ago. Largely, people don’t know the whole story about anything. But still they need to put a name on it so they can label it and put it on the side and not dedicate any time to figuring it out. It’s laziness.”
