I Hate Ugly Betty!!!!!!!
Have you ever seen the show Ugly Betty? I like the show and every character…except Betty. I hate her. I hope she dies soon or gets a brain make over. She’s stupid. Ok, so the point of the show is that she has a great heart, but a good heart doesn’t equal retarded. I know looks aren’t everything, and its not about how you dress. However, in this one episode Betty was just retarded. Daniel, sent her to go do a review on a Hotel. When she goes down to dinner in the hotel’s posh restaurant she wears her prom dress!!!!!!!! How stupid!!!!! OMG…is she mentally challenged who in their right minds would wear a bright neon pink, I think it was, huge poofy ball gown to eat dinner anywhere? That soooo dumb, just because she’s this super nice sweet moral character she has to do absolutely dumb crap like that? Oh and then in the Holiday episode from like last week or whenever, this guy at her job is cute and he likes her, way hotter than her now boyfriend, who also cheated on her with the skank down the street. So she’s like no Henry I can’t go out with you cuz I have this boyfriend (who sucks!!!!! he’s whiny and dumb, and oh so annoying, and like insane!!!!) Henry on the other hand is cute, super smart, kind, and thoughtful, he bought Betty a christmas gift, but when she got it she saw Henry being kissed by this skank model at the sametime. So then Betty runs away before she can say thanks and before Henry can explain. Which I don’t think he should need to cuz it was way to obvious that the skank model was the one who initiated and Henry was so clearly pushing her off of him…Ugh stupid Betty!!!!!!! She’s so stupid stupid stupid. Oh and so later that night, Henry calls to talk to Betty at home to let her know what happened, and her dumb retarded sister decides not to let him talk to Betty, nor does she let Betty know he called…Bitch!!!!! I would be so pissed if my sister did that, hello let me make my own decisions!!!!!! The only interesting parts of Betty’s family are her dad, and her nephew Justin, that kid has some good one-liners. So now the only part of the show worth watching to me is the little romance between Daniel Meade and Salma Hayek’s characters. Which is also a little out there cuz Salma like dumped her fiance’ for a guy she’s known for like a week, just b/c he suddenly promises to stop being a man slut. That and the whole underlying story of Daniel’s dad, Bradford and the recently deceased prior editor of Mode magazine, also Vannessa Williams’ character is fun to watch and see how the relationship with her daughter pans out, I also like Vannessa’s assistant. Oh and how is Amanda, Daniel’s former, shall we say “fun-buddy”, gonna put her feelings behind her enough to come to his aid as his new assistant; since Betty is becoming Salma’s assistant? I mean Amanda is like in LOVE w/ Daniel, but I have to give the girl props…she’s handles her emotions well, and she also handles rejection from Daniel well, and is brave enough to put herself and her heart out there for him. So yeah, I somewhat like/hate the show Ugly Betty, but the hate is toward the title character, and I keep watching the show cuz hey! I hate not finishing a story, and its a way to have something playing on T.V. in the background while I wait for Grey’s Anatomy.
if you hate her so much why do you watch the show?
Hmmm…I kinda addressed why I still watch in the post, but I’ll say it again I really enjoy Vannessa William’s character, Wilhemina, and her assistant. I also really like the guy who plays Daniel, and Betty’s fruity nephew Justin….haha.
ok, so i’ve been watching ugly betty alot too because it is addictive, but i haven’t warmed to her character at all. she is definitely a loser, who gets none of my sympathy because she is stupid and does stupid things all the time. she can’t stand up for herself. Oh and her boyfriend? nuff said, that guy is gross. and her clothes? where is hse living. it must actually cost her more money to wear that vintage crap than it is to just wear something a little more flattering. ugh, ugly ugly betty.
The only thin that might explain her would be its A NIGHTMARE OF A SUPERMODEL THAT WAS IN A COMA.
B.S. I just saw Ugly Betty tonight and one of the lead actresses was in a fat suit which is the modern-day equivalent to blackface. She went from a size 18 down to a size 6? That’s 20 pounds loss. On what planet, Mars? Why do these hyporcrite bitches like her and Star Jones honestly expect us to believe them? I have lost all interest in her and her stupid show. I’m telling everyone I know to boycott it!
i hate it too!!! it is sooo stupid and the girl that plays betty is really ugly!!!!!!
I hate ugly Betty too. Not because she is ugly, It is because she is stupid, I have met a bitch like her, stupid and very ugly. You think she is nice? NO! she seem so but deep inside she only think for her self her self-respect, she thinks she is nice so she must act like that, she feel ashame if she is not be nice so she does all that things just to feel not gulty. I wish she die.
OMG I’ve finally found someone who agrees with me on this show. The supporting actors are pretty good but betty is a total dumbass. First, remember where the Christmas issue got leaked……she admitted to the whole thing….WHY? Lying, is wrong especially when it’s not your fault, just to save some assistants that show you NO respect no matter how many times you’ve been there for them. She got that makeover and ended up looking like an absolute fool. Then the show tried to make it like it was a working class/ highclass thing. If someone was walking down any street like that, i’d think they were a prostitute. She gets given that Gucci bag by the wardrobe lady and trades it to the pharmacy girl, have you heard of eBay bitch or an auction? She could have gotten his meds for like a year, stupid cow. She makes me so mad, totally oblivious, ignorant, classless and on occassion even the supporting actors are idiots. Why would her dad let her cheating ex in the house. If my boyfriend cheated on me with some ho down the street my dad would break his nose if he came up to our door, hers invites him over for dinner. Are you that calous toward your daughter’s feelings? Ridiculously stupid. I hate that show, her family and the assistants. Everyone else is cool. Damn, doesn’t she know how to run a brush through her hair, for fuck’s sake!
Oh God, Am I the only one who thinks Ugly Betty is ugly in real life as well as on the tv show too?
Even without her makeup, she’s hideous.
O.O
I realise my response is literally years late but I just had to comment. I know I should be very careful not to judge so I’ll try and go on fruit (what I can see) alone — I don’t see how this post glorifies God in any way whatsoever. The language used, both by you and some of your posters, is not my business but I do think that if you are going to be so open about your Christianity that the sub-heading of your blog is a biblical verse, you need to set a better example both for Christians and non-Christians.
Firstly, Ugly Betty is just a TV show so I don’t see the big issue. BUT, if we’re going to go there — why would you encourage someone to go on a date with someone when they already have a boyfriend. Even though Betty’s boyfriend at the time (Walter, I think?) treated her badly, she was still with him. The right thing to do would be to break up with him first and THEN see what happens with Henry.
As for wearing a poofy prom dress to dinner … why is that stupid? And according to what standards?
It’s not my intention to be self-righteous. No-one is perfect. But this post was a classic example of the superficial Christianity that pervades the West. We’re all guilty of it at times (myself included) but we need to start realising how dangerous it is.
What is it that separates us from the world? What makes us different? Why would anyone want to be a Christian? Is it just about a free place in heaven?
There are many worldly, immoral choices that Betty makes. But staying faithful to your boyfriend and wearing something that makes you happy are not two of them.
Hi,
Thanks for your comment. Reading it I felt I had to respond. I guess first I have to say that I never anywhere in my post say Betty should cheat on her boyfriend. However, I did not think it was right for Betty to subject herself to being mistreated. And you can get to know people while you are in a relationship with another person, but you set boundaries on how close you get to the new person, plus I thought if Betty did become friends with Henry it would have helped her see that it was time to move out of (as in break up with) the relationship with her boyfriend and then have the choice to either stay single or pursue something better. Like you said it is just a show, and my blog is just a blog. Betty is just a fictional character, and I don’t see anything wrong in making fun of her choice to wear a prom dress to a restaurant, because she’s not real. Betty wore that dress because she’s clueless as to what styles to choose for different social situations. Yes, her character is ignorant when it comes to dress and fashion, that’s done on purpose to be funny. But I found it annoying at times how far the writers would go to make Betty look out of place. I understand Betty is an outrageously out of place character and she makes so many outrageously silly and at times stupid choices when it comes to her style of dress, which is part of the shows humor, and my blog was intended to be humorous & slightly tongue in cheek as well.
I love being open about my Christianity, and I think being open about it means that people are offered a chance to see all of me and maybe find God themselves. My blog is not how I live my life, and my faith and service to God is not superficial in anyway, ever. I disagree that my blog is a classic example of any form of superficial Christianity. I understand your opinion on some of the language used, and I am not advertising the use of swear words, however, while I have no control over the commenters choice of language, I do feel my post was tame. Personally I think words are words, But I can not lie, in my opinion there are situations, people, and things in life where stronger language is accurate. The one swear I used was towards Betty’s sister, who is not a real person. The actress who plays her is very talented, and I laud her for her work on this show and other projects. I myself am an actress, I’ve worked on plays and films where my character swears. I think its a personal choice, but not an indication of a person’s level of spirituality. I think on stage, in flim/tv, or in a blog using certain language is appropriate, because they are fictional worlds, and a way to express things that we may not be able to in everyday life, and give us a way to explore every side of life both positive and negative. Also I, as a human, have both sides, positive and negative. I think it would be a disservice to those reading my blog to try and whitewash or censor things that go on in my head, hide the struggle of being Christian today, or try to fit what someone thinks a Christian should think and say. So maybe you’re really saying that I am not deeply Christian in that case:
I think it comes down to a person’s personal relationship with God that makes them different from the world. I am a wonderful example of a Christian to everyone I know. Now usually I don’t say that, because I view myself as humble in my faith, but since you said I need to be a better example I am going to defend myself. I am selfless, kind, and honest. If someone is hungry, I feed them, if a child needs help, I help them. If a friend needs guidance and I give it, and tell them the source of my guidance, which is God. I’m 24 years old and a virgin waiting for her husband. Some people have told me I wait on God too much, that I should go out looking for a husband or fortune or what the world thinks I should have at this point in my life including other Christians. I disagree. I have asked God for the steps I need to take and allow him to reveal each one in their time. He knows I am not perfect and I have my share of mistakes, but this blog and the posts within are not them. If you look at my other posts you can make your own conclusion. Maybe I am a more liberal Christian, some people say I am too revolutionary in my ideas on God and with my faith. But I feel that God is ingrained in every aspect of my life and my thoughts on God are unique & possibly very different from your own, so I fail to see how my post constitutes superficial faith, when our ideas may be completely different. I also think at times people misread what being a Christian is. We can be so focused on doctrine or even scripture, while both, though inspired by God, were written by men. I think being honest with myself, others, and especially God is what sets me apart. I believe allowing faith to guide you and letting Jesus guide my life choices is what makes me a Christian. Feeling his presence in my life spiritually and physically is what gets me through my day, it is constant, deep, no where near superficial. Faith and the road to salvation is different for every person, just as there are different routes to a destination, there are different roads to heaven, and I believe I have found my own. My blog is a partially uncensored view of my thoughts, thoughts that God has a full view of, and I have no problem sharing a little of that view with others. Also I think maybe just maybe, you took my post too much to heart. When I write here I am not intending to be too serious, heavy or life-changing. I just like to write what I may be thinking at any point in time, which could be anything. I’m almost scared to know what you think of my Bruce Webber post, lol.
Thank You,
Starshine
