All “American” Girl

by Dorothy

America Ferrera is no Ugly Betty on the October 2007 cover of Glamour magazine.

All “American” Girl

America Ferrera opens up to Glamour magazine in a very interesting interview. In it she discusses the changing role of Latin women in Hollywood. She discusses her first experience in being followed by the paparazzi. To bad the guy thought he was following Salma Hayek! Proving that America is truly a regular girl and not a diva she also speaks about trying to sell her furniture on Craigslist and trying not to sweat on the red carpet.

Some other bloggers have also commented on this Glamour cover and they have a lot to say! Perez Hilton has given this cover a best Photoshop Award, Jezebel is “up in arms” and Guanabee “dissects” the article to show its hiding meanings. Definitely worth giving a read.

In Now magazine America also discusses feelings of insecurities growing up because she thought she was too fat. Allegedly she used to “look in the mirror and weep, thinking I was too fat.” She goes on to say she feels beautiful today “far from the ugly duckling I appear on screen”
