Psst is Ugly Betty being turned into a film?

By Andrea Petrou on April 15th, 2010

We were really upset when we found out that Ugly Betty was going to be axed a few months ago.

However it seems there’s a small silver lining to this cloud, with news that the fashion girl could be set for film stardom. Yes that’s right, an Ugly Betty film could be coming to a big screen near us in the not so distant future.

Stars America Ferrera and Ana Ortiz are rumoured to be excited about the prospect of a film, and have been in talks with top execs.

And Ana strongly hinted at the possibility. “I will say this: It’s open. There may be a movie!” the actress told Latina.com.

‘It’s something that we’ve been talking about and it’s something that America Ferrera would really love to do.

We’d really love you to do it too America. Pleaaaase say yes.

The Screen Actors Guild Awards: Liveblogging the red carpet

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on January 25th, 2009

SAG awards.jpg

It looks like the television stars were told to arrive at the Screen Actor’s Guild awards early, so we’re still waiting for a lot of the big movie nominees to step out of their limos. So here’s what a lot of TV’s loveliest ladies are wearing and a few movie stars too!

Jennifer Morrison (nominee, ensemble drama cast for House) – Ann Valerie Hash
Katrina Bowden (nominee, ensemble comedy cast for 30 Rock) – Christian Siriano – what up Project Runway!
Melissa Leo (nominee, female lead actor for Frozen River) – vintage/Bulgari/Judith Leiber
Holly Hunter (nominee, female actor drama for Saving Grace) – Reem Acra
Jane Krakowski - (nominee, ensemble comedy cast for 30 Rock) – Roberto Cavalli – which she knows because she was texting “her people” as she arrived and the cameras caught her!
Emily Blunt (presenter) – beautiful slinky silver number which the E! hosts failed to ask her to identify, we’re working on it! But she did mention that it was like full body Spanx.
America Ferrera (female actor comedy for Ugly Betty) – Vera Wang

ShinyStyle Golden Globes Gallery: Pretty in pastels

By Kimberley Foster on January 12th, 2009

Dark hues may have been the choice for many starlets, but the Golden Globes were also awash with pastels too. Anyone might have thought it was spring by the way some celebs wore their pretty pale colours. Nudes, soft pinks, pale yellows and blues dominated as the likes of Angelina Jolie, Drew Barrymore and Salma Hayek took their turns in front of the cameras. [Photos: Jim Smeal/BEI/Rex Features]

Glamour 2008 Woman of the Year Awards

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on November 11th, 2008

Glamour is a very black and white thing… or at least it is to the ladies who showed up at Glamour magazine’s 2008 Women of the Year Awards in New York last night. Most seemed to favour the timeless chic of monochrome and really let the fabrics, cut and intricate detailing do all the talking (check out Natalie Portman‘s frock to see exactly what I’m talking about.)

However, not everyone was in black or white mood – America Ferrera, for one, managed to step away from the black and into a bright Oscar de la Renta watercolour fantasy decorated with black paillettes. My personal favourite though would have to be Kate Bosworth, who always adheres to the mantra “less is more” and always comes away better off for it!

AJ Michalka, America Ferrera, and Cameron Diaz at the Kids’ Choice Awards

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on March 31st, 2008

Kids Choice collage 1.jpgClick image to enlarge.

Funny how the Kids’ Choice Awards produce so much grown up fashion! The age discrepancy amongst some of the honorees is a little ironic, but heck! It’s Hollywood. Above is Amanda Michalka, aka A.J. from Aly & A.J., and more exitingly the upcoming movie adaptation of The Lovely Bones, in BCBG Max Azria. For a relative unknown I thought she was one of the more fashion-forward on the red carpet.

The Ugly Betty cast walks the red carpet at the SAG awards

By Andrea Thatcher on January 27th, 2008

Ugly%20Betty%20cast.jpg

The fashionophiles of Ugly Betty took a step away from the Mode offices to walk the red carpet at the SAG awards tonight. While Tina Fey may have beat out America Ferrera and Vanessa Williams for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series, I think these ladies took home the style honors. For more on who wore what, keep reading.

America Ferrera shines in Monique Lhuillier at Hispanics in Hollywood event

By Andrea Thatcher on October 11th, 2007

America%20Ferrera.jpg

I love Monique Lhuillier, the designer who created the red carpet frock above, and I’m beginning to love America Ferrera. I know I’m behind most of America (the country), but I haven’t been completely swayed by America’s newest namesake sweetheart. But her classy red carpet style is bringing me around. This classic navy lace sheath, worn for the 1st Annual Hispanic Women in Entertainment event, is just lovely and appropriate. You could call it a bit boring, but I like how seriously America takes her role as a Hispanic role model, she was named Hispanic Woman of the Year, and the way she is always the consumate professional. You really don’t see that too often in Hollywood, and still less on a fresh, young, fashionable face.

America Ferrera and Kimora Lee are curvy and colorful on the red carpet

By Andrea Thatcher on September 16th, 2007

These are two of my favorite dresses of the evening, and they’re not even displayed in a size zero, imagine that! America Ferrera of “Ugly Betty” shows off a strapless, bright blue number. And Kimora – whose “Life in the Fab Lane” is currently being documented on the Style Network and who is providing fashion commentary on E’s Fashion Police at 8 p.m. Monday, rocks a royal purple ensemble with a cutout back and scarf.
