Fat is the New Beautiful: Ugly Betty goes to Brazil

by: Admin

About 3 months ago, we reported that Brazil's second largest network "RedeTV" were planning to develop its own Portuguese-language version of Ugly Betty. It seems the adaptation is getting near to its materialization as producers are currently looking a fat actress who will fit(or overfit) to a T with the Betty role. They believe that people today can relate more with a fat character on screen than the traditional ugly look as obesity or over-nourished is a current worldwide epidemic. Brazil will call their version "Betty, a Feia" and premiere target date will be on March 2009. Despite of your look and size, you can show your beauty to everyone around you with a positive outlook about yourself. As Mika said in his video(below), "Big Girls, You are Beautiful!".
