How "Ugly Betty" Stays Beautiful

Posted Jan 9th 2007 2:17PM by TMZ Staff

America Ferrera is a knockout compared to the woman she plays on TV, but she still has her insecurities.

Ferrera is combatting her "Ugly" image through lipomassage, a French body treatment also known as endermologie, which smoothes and contours the body by reducing unsightly cellulite -- with the help of a massive massage machine. No incisions, no scars.

The machine simply isolates certain problem areas with a sucking mechanism, while rollers lift, stretch and mobilize the tissues.

Other stars known to undergo endermologie treatments include Sharon Stone (has it done before shooting any nude scenes) and Paris Hilton. The treatment is extremely popular in Hollywood, especially around Red Carpet Season, and is said to be the best alternative to the more dangerous liposuction.

2. I would like to see her completely nude before I render my opinion (so if her publicist is reading this: Go 'head and forward some pic's ; ) ... as far as looks go - She's a BEEAUT!!!

3. Listen I dont speak one word of Spanish and I am addicted to "Le Fea mas bella' which is the Mexican version of Ugly Betty. Betty doesnt hold a candle to any of le fea. Just kook into dreamy Don Fernandos eyes and your hooked. Ugly Betty is really disappointing and I understand that!!!!

4. I think "Ugly Betty" is the most refreshing show since "Arrested Developement."
I'd rather watch America and the show, instead of all the Paris's, Britannys,
and all the others who will have fleeting fame, as their looks and talent
disappears. Whoops!, I didn't mean Paris's talent, cause I'm not sure what it is.
Most people can relate to "Ugly Betty", she is truly beautiful.

5. What you do call America Ferrera and Angelica Vale if they were a wrestling tag team as their "Ugly Betty" alter egos since Angelica plays the Mexican version of Ugly Betty on Univision? Donald Trump presents the "Betty Queens" Whoever created these characters needs to see a head shrink. ARGH!

8. The public may like her, but all hollywood is concerned with is their own standards. She knows how to play the game.

9. It is obvious that “Ugly Betty” is a pretty girl?
The things that I suspect go to make her Ugly is her glasses and her teeth braces.
This is not a good example for our young people, as many have to wear glasses and teeth braces. And I don’t think that makes them Ugly.
If they don’t want to put children off wearing glasses and teeth braces, use a real Ugly girl.
