Number one: Rosario Dawson can sing, as evidenced in the musical Rent, where she impressed people with her voice and performance. She was discovered by Larry Clark, when he asked her to act in the film Kids. Right after, Rosario took acting in the Film Institute and Lee Strasberg Theater.

Number two: Rosario Dawson can indeed, act. She may not be the best actress in the world, but her good looks, sexy physique, and her competence (as opposed to being outstanding) in portrayals guarantee that she gets her fair share of good movies. In the film Sin City, even the hardened skeptics finally said (even grudgingly) that she has what it takes to survive in the business.
