Casting About: Rita Moreno Gets Ugly, and More
Oscar, Emmy, Grammy and Tony winner (what, couldn't score a
Cleo?)
Rita Moreno will guest-star on a May episode of
Ugly Betty, playing (along with
Six Feet Under's
Justina Machado) long-lost Suarez family members. In the same ep,
Rebecca Gayheart (
Vanished) plays a woman Alex dated before his (her?) faked death. I see a chance here to put Aniston-Cox to
shame.
