Javier Bardem's confession when speaking English: "I'm less shy"

Shyness in people is a trait that can be a problem for many when it comes to establishing relationships, or simply interacting with other people. Social networks were a great ally for these individuals who found it difficult to engage in conversations in person, and the anonymity of social networks was, and is, a help since hiding behind a screen can always give some peace of mind.

Javier Bardem revealed he feels less shy speaking English than Spanish due to a language barrier acting as a shield. In a candid chat with Diego Luna, Bardem shared how speaking English makes it easier to take risks, unlike his native Spanish, highlighting unique actor perspectives.

If we translate this situation to the world of acting, it may seem paradoxical that an actor confesses his shyness, but it may be even more surprising that this actor is one of the best in our country and whose work in the mecca of cinema was rewarded with an Academy Award and with great roles in many internationally successful films Bardem and his ease with English.

It was in an interview with the US media outlet Variety that Javier Bardem confessed a little secret that not everyone knew. "I'm not saying that people notice it, but for me I'm less

shy in English than in Spanish," he said in one of the moments of the chat with Mexican actor Diego Luna, which despite the fact that the two are native Spanish speakers, the whole interview was conducted in English.

Bardem continued: "Because in Spanish I feel like I can't hide in any way from myself and also not in any fun way. But in English I can. It's the language barrier, that's not me, I don't know how to explain it," he joked in the video. He also indicated that for him, it is "easier to take risks in English", something that does not happen to Diego Luna.

"I don't feel that way because I'm too aware in English of my limitations. My limitations are what define me and I'm very happy with them. In English, I rarely meet people who are going through the same struggle, so it makes me feel like I've been left out," said the Mexican.
