  • Ugly Betty Stars Make Beautiful Music | Party Central: The Latest Buzz from Your Favorite Stars | 3/6/2008
    Could Season 3 bring a musical episode of Ugly Betty? It's inevitable, say the cast of the ABC show. On Wednesday night at the Alzheimer's Association's 16th-annual "A Night at Sardi's" fund-raiser, almost the entire Ugly Betty ensamble — along with stars from Heroes, Boston Legal and even Brothers & Sisters' Steven Weber in a glittering snakeskin suit — performed selections from the Broadway musical Bye Bye Birdie. Betty's Tony Plana, Ana Ortiz, Becky Newton, Mark Indelicato, Vanessa Williams, David Blue and Chris Gorham proved that they can belt out a tune like the best of Broadway, which is no surprise as most of them hail from New York and are, as Ortiz puts it, "theater geeks."

  • Ugly Betty Star: Lindsay Lohan Still Might Visit | Today's News: Our Take | 3/5/2008
    It's no news that Lindsay Lohan was supposed to join Ugly Betty for a guest-starring turn, but what most disappoints Tony Plana about the cameo that may never happen is that he won't get to interact with the starlet.
