Actress says fans' low expectations work in her favour
Saturday, 25 October 2008
America Ferrera says people are surprised by how good she looks when they meet her in real life.
The actress dons a frumpy costume, including wig and braces, to play Betty Suarez in the hit American show Ugly Betty.
So when viewers see her in her own clothes and with a metal-free mouth, they're impressed.
‘I can just walk out in jeans and a T-shirt and people are like: “Man, you look good!”’ she says.
‘I’m lucky in that respect.'
Despite the contrast, America, 24, says that getting ready for filming is a speedy process.
‘It doesn’t take as long as people might think for me to transform into Betty, unfortunately,’ she tells Celebs On Sunday. ‘It’s like 30 minutes now!’
