America Ferrera is coming to a theater near you with all her amijitas Blake Lively, Alexis Bledel, Amber Tamlyn in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.

One question though…where was Dania Ramirez and Selena Gomez? Oh well, for next year’s issue. Anyway, congrats mujeres.

I’ve said it before and I’m going to say it again. The ’08 is going to be the year of America Ferrera. She might share the honors with Dania Ramirez, but man, America has the star game on lock.
I see her as my generation’s J.Lo with even more curves. Don’t know how far she is into her search for a Skeletor husband. If I think of someone, I’ll send her a suggestion.
I can see her coming out with her own fragrance, in a red sensuous bottle with a name like The Beautiful. Ooh, ooh, and a clothing line…a clothing line tied in with the Traveling Pants franchise. This girl has got so much game. Sigh.
I think I’ve figured out what happened.
The memos from the respective stylists of Sara Ramirez and America Ferrera ended up being the victim of the old switcheroo stuff, which explains why America looked like an old lady and Sara looked as if she were going to her prom.
Does this chica look good or what? Whereas America…
Something’s just not right with this outfit. The Monique L’lullier dress is just fine really, but I think I have a problem with the color. It’s just doesn’t say America. England maybe. Dress makes America look like an old lady. What’s worse than her choice of color? Her choice of hair style. That do makes it look as if she’s being seen in an aging mirror that ages her about 20 years.
Ooh, E.Lo’s looking great. The hair and jewelry I mean. That dress looks like it’s just hanging. The fabric reminds me of those rectanble tablecloths my grandmother puts on her dining room table on Palm Sunday. That sleepy vixen pose and gaze looks good and the dress makes the best of her back rack… at least.
It’s official. “Ugly Betty” estrella America Ferrera is in Hillary’s corner.
According to UK’s The Independent, this is a milestone for the presidential nominee formerly known as Hillary Rodham Clinton. Ferrera joining her camp:
“generat[es] instant appeal among Hispanic voters – a key swing vote in the 2008 US presidential race.”
America had this to say:
“This election is too important to stand on the sidelines, especially for my generation. I look forward to rallying young people to use their voices and get involved. I believe that Hillary Clinton can turn this country around. I am confident she will be a champion for young women and men across the country.”
Wonder what Latino Obama plans on pulling in his corner? The Independent made this remark:
“In Nevada, Mr Obama has been saying he transcends the bitterness that often exists between blacks and Spanish voters. “My history is excellent with Latino supporters back in Illinois, because they knew my record,” he said, “Nationally, people don’t know that record quite as well. So it’s very important for me to communicate that.”

Javier Bardem won a Golden Globe as Best Supporting Actor for his role as Anton the psychopath in the film No Country for Old Men. Javier released a statement:
“It is a great honor to have been recognized with this award in a time when there are so many outstanding performances in this category.”
Due to the writer’s strike, the winners were announced via a live press conference. I had to resort to mentally picturing the fashions for the night. So, I will tell you what everyone wore. Best Actress in a Comedy or musical nominee America Ferrera wore a green toga-like Elie Tahari gown with Shemera eyelashes and a sweeping hairdo. Shakira, best song nominee? A fitting gown that showed off her belly dance-flattened abs.
