A Sad Day- Adios Betty Suarez.



Well, the day I was dreading has come and tonight will be the final episode of Ugly Betty.It is still a popular show, but ABC and the powers that be have said the rating have slipped, so Betty is getting the axe. Nooooooooooooo! This has been my favorite show in I don't know how long. It will be like losing family. The show I feel was always very well done, well written and the parts couldn't have been cast better. And their hasn't been this kind of fashion on tv since the Carrington's and the Colby's of Dynasty. And it has been great to watch Betty bloom and grow.




And all the characters could have a good and a bad side. But the thing I'll miss the most is the ultra stunning, beautiful and gorgeous Vanessa Williams who played Wilhelmenia Slater. Did she sink her teeth into this part or what? And how can one forget all the shenanigans her and Mark got into not to mention all the botox shots he used to give her.



Then there is Mark and Amanda and all there dramas. I really did buy there gay boy and best girl pal relationship.


The show got to me plenty also over the years like when Hilda's boyfriend and Justin's father was shot and she received the news. Or the time Daniel surprised his mother Claire with a special dinner just for the two of them. But last week took the prize when Justin finally came out to his family at his mothers wedding, by asking his boyfriend Austin to slow dance. Everyone teared up, including myself. The Boy -Toy though I was nuts. It was just so damn cute and touching and lets face it, we all wish we could have come out like that. Plus Justin also got his first kiss.


And the twist keep coming. Claire had another child? Willie was at one time ugly? But the biggest twist was when Alexis turned out to be Daniel's brother who had had a sex change. Over time, they got along great.And the part was played brilliant by Rebecca Romijn.


Then there was Hilda and all the hot men she had. I really loved her character. A smart mouth,sassy and has balls!



And how can you forget all the guest stars who came on and actually made sense to be there. Lanie Kazan, Victoria Beckham, Christian Siriarno. Not to mention all the drag queens you graced the episode where Wilhelmina found out she was being impersonated by one! Ahhhhhhhh good times. I thank ABC for the entertainment this show brought, the style, the talent. Another great show bites the dust and goes to the little place where they go in the sky. Now I will prepare to watch the final episode and then go salk in a corner somewhere. Thanks for the memories Ugly Betty.

OH HELL NO THEY DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



It has been recently brought to my attention that my favorite show, and one of the only things I really watch, Ugly Betty, has indeed been cancelled!!! While I think ABC does have some of the best shows on, I demand to know who these buffoons are you don't know what talent they have right under their nose, plus bringing all that style of fashion, beautiful sets,stunning cinematography, great and entertaining story lines, and a great cast of characters! Not to mention they are taking my diva Vanessa Williams away from me!!! OH HELL NO! I WILL HAVE TO CUT AND SMACK SOME SENSELESS FOOL! I will miss this show so much. Now, if you will excuse me, I feel like I'm losing good friends,so I'm now retiring to the boudior with some cock-a-tails to get good and tight. Tootles. And Wonder Man, I don't hold the news against you.

OH MY GOD. I'm so excited that Ugly Betty comes back on October 16, now on Friday's at 9PM. It's only the best show on tv and I can't wait for another season of the delicious Vanessa Williams as Wilhelmina Slater and a whole season of her stunning wardrobe and fierce style! Ahhhhhhh, all is right with the world again.

Ugly Betty



Did you see Ugly Betty last week! I just love this show. This week they introduced yet another favorite actress of the Mistress's. The Tony and Emmy winner Christine Branaski. I love this woman.



And the week before was the very handsome and hot Cheyenne Jackson who was on the show playing a gay single dad who may start dating the character of the zany Mark.



If you know the Mistress really well you'll know the real reason I watch this show. Vanessa Williams. Talented. Stunning. Enough said.





Ugly Betty for those who don't watch is roughly the story of Betty Suarez who lives in Queens, New York and is sorely lacking fashion sense and aesthetic polish. Betty got hired to a fashion magazine titled Mode, where she is a top assistant to the top brass owner ,Daniel Meade, played by yet another hottie, Eric Mabius. The show follows her story as she balances her work, home life, and romantic life surrounded by a cast of characters and problems du jour. It also has a wonderful cast of talent and all the characters seem to interact very well together where on some shows they don't. Every character has a purpose and you can't help but like them all. The show is very well written. Visually stunning with vivid colors, beautiful sets, and some of the best dressed characters on television. And this season the story lines have gotten really good and touching. I swear the last three shows I got a little teary eyed. Like the episode where Daniel surprised his mother with a special dinner for just the two of them. And Judith Light looks better than ever as Claire Meade.



Rounding out the family was the convincing Rebecca Romijn who played Alexis/Alex Meade. Y'all see Rebecca played a transsexual woman. She is Daniel's sister now but used to be his brother. As beautiful as Rebecca is I bought her as being a man once.



And how can you not love the modern day Lucy and Ethel of the show. Mark and Amanda are always in the center of a crisis and are both self absorbed,snobby and bullies ,but you still have to like them.



And finally Betty's sister, the beautiful and sassy mouthed Hilda Suarez played by fellow Philadelphian Ana Ortiz and Betty's cute as a button nephew Justin played by Mark Indelicato, who is one of the first young characters on the television who may appear to be gay.Love the show tune jigs he does!





How cute was the show where he befriend a obviously closeted straight kid and they formed a friendship. Or how about the heart wrenching scene where Hilda lost her ex husband when he got shot at the corner store. No, this is one hell of a show with all the emotions wrapped in one. All the characters on here can be good or evil at times, but isn't that like in real life? The Boy-Toy refused to watch the show when it started and after seeing it he is now hooked, but not like me. Everyone knows the world shuts down for the Mistress when this show is on!

I Love Me an Aussie



The Mistress lovvvvvves herself some of Ugly Betty and she is relieved to know it got picked up for a fourth season. One of the reasons is the stunning Vanessa Williams,whom I worship daily. But the other reason is the above picture. Grant Bowler. He is just so damn handsome. I love me a hot Australian. Grant Bowler is an actor known for many television roles in Australia and New Zealand. He currently lives in Australia. Outrageous Fortune is his big claim to fame and has even given up roles to stay on the show. But this season he joined the cast of Ugly Betty where he plays the recurring regular Connor Owens, who romances the villainous Wilhelmina Slater. Now, I don't know about y'all but he gets me all hot, ok!



On the set of Ugly Betty. Is it me or could he put a eye out with that thing?


Here he is with the beautiful Vanessa Williams!
