America Ferrera thinks The Hills, 90210 and Gossip Girl teaches girls to be, well, mean girls. Us Weekly reports that Ferrera isn't happy with the way female relationships are depicted on popular TV shows. The star of ABC's Ugly Betty — which constantly debates the themes of beauty on the inside vs. the outside — told the October issue of Seventeen, "If you're watching The Hills or 90210, all the backstabbing shapes the way we act – you go to school, and you think your job is to find a sworn enemy and be jealous of each other."In that case, what does Ferrera think about Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants co-star Blake Lively's hit show Gossip Girl? She admits, "I mean, I love Blake; she's a wonderful friend of mine, but shows like Gossip Girl kind of condition us to be mean." (Interesting since Ugly Betty, while sweet in the end, has some of the cattiest 'tudes on TV).With all the talk of catty women, Ferrera admits that working with Lively, Amber Tamblyn and Alexis Bl... read more

Ugly Betty's Beauteous Evening

Sunday's ALMA Awards were far from Ugly for actress America Ferrera. Not only did her show Ugly Betty take victory for best Latino-led ensemble cast, but Ferrera went home with the night's big win as Entertainer of the Year. The 24-year-old actress earned the honor not only for her frumpy-but-fiesty role as Betty Suarez on the ABC series, but also for her offscreen work encouraging youth to become politically active. Ferrera wasn't the only one to go home with a statue in hand after the Eva Longoria-hosted ceremony. Other Latino performers, including Two and a Half Men's Charlie Sheen and Scrubs' Judy Reyes, went home with TV comedy awards, as well as Lost's Jorge Garcia and Eli Stone's Julie Gonzalo for supporting roles. — Gina DiNunno read more

America Ferrera Wants to Strangle Blake Lively?

During an interview to promote their new film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, the conversation with stars America Ferrera and Blake Lively took an uncomfortable turn as the topic moved to one of the most buzzed shows out there — Blake’s own Gossip Girl. But what is priceless about this clip is not Blake going on and on about the show while America sits in awkward silence, it's the face the Ugly Betty star makes in the final seconds. Not very Sisterhood-y if you ask us. read more

Jeers: Lindsay Lohan Gets Ugly

America Ferrera and Lindsay Lohan by Karen Neal/ABC

Jeers to Ugly Betty for Lindsay Lohan's tune-in-two-minutes-late-and-you'll-miss-it cameo. The tabloid target tried to rehabilitate her image with a role in a high-school flashback as a mean girl who uses Betty (America Ferrera) as a "human shield" in a game of dodgeball, but she made no impact. (Naomi Campbell also struck out with a self-mocking appearance as herself in a softball scene.) Word is LiLo will return to the ABC comedy for a multi-episode arc next season, but after this anticlimactic sneak preview, I'd sooner look forward to Herbie: Fully Loaded 2. • Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
