Not-so Ugly Betties

Lordy, it's been a while since my last random posting of exploitative hot-man pics, hasn't it? Sorry about that.

Anyway, it was quite the smorgasbord watching the latest Ugly Betty. On top of resident hottie Eric Mabius (not literally, sadly), there were a couple of delicious, exotic flavours for those who prefer their bread a little less white.

First, Cristian de la Fuente playing Alexis' new love interest:

(although, naturally, being Brazilian he's totally duplicitous and working in the employ of evil Jim Robinson from Neighbours. Gotta love the show that's working to style positive images of Mexican-Americans but can't help falling back on the 'evil, swarthy Brazilian' stereotype when it suits).

But for real black coffee, not just cafe au lait, meet Amanda's new love interest, played by Mykel Shannon-Jenkins:

Can't see Amanda going back...

Surprise surprise, Silvo Horta, the producer of UB, like pretty much all the producers of the best shows on TV at the moment, is himself a big 'mo. Mmm, casting couch.

I gotte get me that job...

yeah i'm enjoying watching a latino family for a change, but it bothers me that it's so monolingual.... surely in real life there'd be a whole of spanish goin on. it's a pity schmoes are afraid of subtitles... reading is such hard work!!
