米歇尔·罗德里格兹1978年7月12日生于美国德州的贝尔县。母亲是某合唱队的成员,父亲则是大学讲师,均来自波多黎各。8岁那年,他们举家搬到多米尼加,两年后又搬到波多黎各住了一年。由于父亲后来在纽约大学取得了一个职位,他们又举家搬到了纽约附近的新泽西。父母离异之后,罗德里格兹随管教甚严的母亲及外祖母生活。虽然母亲、外祖母以及父亲三人给了她许多混杂甚至相互矛盾的教育和影响,但罗德里格兹从小一副野小子的性格却浑然天成,从未有过改变与动摇。动荡的生活使得她经常换校读书,但似乎哪一所学校也不对她的胃口。因 Michelle Rodriguez was born in Bell County, Texas, USA on July 12, 1978.
