"Ruthie" on Ugly Betty

Thought she looked familiar then my wife said that that is Becki Newton
(Amanda) playing the Betty lookalike

I think it's her also. That's why the did the closeup and held it there a
second, hilarious.

It was! Though I didn't catch it on first watch, rewatching it
with the knowledge was great.

I honestly wonder how this show got on the air, I can imagine what the
pitched sounded like.

Maybe something like: "We want to adapt a foreign show that's been
phenomenally successful wherever it's been adapted," ?

Salma Hayek worked on a US version of it for 2 years, that's how.

at the new mag Salma Hayek runs. LOL pretty cool casting as Becki
(Amanda) is quite hot. BTW Salma and
Vanessa Williams looked awesome in the episode also.

Frank Swarbrick...

I thought it was her, but I couldn't be sure.

Interesting if you check the credits no actress is listed for that
character.
