丑女贝蒂的女主角亚美莉卡·费雷拉(America Ferrera) ，于近期（2008年8月期刊）登上了《黑皮书》杂志的首页，当天她身穿黑白相间的运动鞋，配上蓝色的运动衫和牛仔裤，混合在拥护的人群中四处闲逛，以下是相关描述：

America Ferrera blends into the crowd as she strolls up the Bowery on the Lower East Side. Just outside the Patricia Field boutique, a former restaurant supply store converted into a temple of candy-colored fashion raunch, Ferrera stops dead in her tracks as the flame-haired proprietor who styled the "Ugly Betty" pilot and created costumes for "Sex and the City," the series and the movie, strides toward the curvaceous young actress. Styled, meet unstyled. Stylist, meet star. Emmy winners, talk amongst yourselves.

Ferrera lets out a yelp of recognition: “Is that you? Pat!” The two embrace. Pat Field is returning to style “Ugly Betty” now that the show will be shooting in New York for its third season. Such a move means that the costumes are about to get that much more on point (if slightly funhouse electric), while cast and crew work closer to the show’s source material, the well-heeled snakepits of glossy fashion magazines. As star and stylist pleasantly schmooze, a pair of tourists descends upon Field, asking for her autograph, oblivious to the other pop culture phenomenon in their midst. Meanwhile, Ferrera quietly checks her BlackBerry. Such oversights don’t faze Ferrera a bit. Why should they? Put makeup and couture on her and it’s no longer a Cinderella story, a gimmick or send-up of her “Ugly Betty” character.

With her cocoa-brown eyes and angular features, she is genuinely beautiful. And over the next few months, that sultry and increasingly confident countenance will be everywhere. Ferrera’s hot factor has propelled four films made over the last five years into release, including The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (another of the films, Towards Darkness, a kidnap drama, she produced). And on television, a fashion-fabulous vortex has been set up for Ferrera to tap into at will. Pat Field has a few thoughts on the direction Ferrera’s character should take. “Betty’s style has to evolve in a way that makes sense,” explains the den mother of all that’s edgy. “Otherwise, it’s no more than a fashion show on TV. She can’t work for a fashion magazine and not have it influence her. Betty is the only one who is an individual in Mode’s world. If she was in fashion downtown, she would be worshipped.” How far the petite 24-year-old girl-next-door has come.

The last time Ferrera lived in New York, two years ago, she appeared as Charlie Brown’s little sister, Sally, in an off-Broadway play called Dog Sees God. “I was living on Third Street and Avenue A. Although for the longest time, I thought that Times Square was where all the action was!” She chuckles at her cheerful dorky naïveté, a quality that, of course, helped her nail the lead in her hit series when Salma Hayek pitched it to her.

Did it bother her at all that Hayek thought her perfect to play the title character in a series called “Ugly Betty?” “Maybe I have self-confidence I have no right to have!” Ferrera says laughing, brandishing a Cali-Valley accent over a brunch of toast and eggs at a nearby restaurant. Ferrera eats carefully, like a princess: the toast is delicately nibbled and the whites of the eggs are eaten in full before the yolks are disposed of, in tiny precision-cut squares. “Salma pitched this character and this world to me, and it sounded fabulous, this show about a girl who is smart and does everything from the heart.

The Columbian version of this show was made before The Devil Wears Prada was ever written. Betty’s ugly in this world. Aren’t we all ugly compared to the expectations we put on ourselves? We eat up those images and only feel worse. It’s fun to explore fashion through Betty and wear these silly expressions of who she is. Fashion is fun expression!”
