Betty Suarez (America Ferrera)
Beatriz Suarez, or most commonly known as Betty, is an aspiring individual to have a fortune in the magazine industry someday. Betty’s dream started coming into life when she was hired to be the assistant of one of the executives in a fashion magazine. With her not so pleasing physical appearance, Betty strived to survive in the industry where the face is the number one tool to succeed. She was discriminated by her coworkers because of her looks, but with her kind heart, Betty found new friends who found the beauty of her heart. Also, with the great ideas that Betty shares, the fashion magazine found her very useful.
Betty is portrayed by actress America Ferrera, whose career blossomed after portraying the said role. America Ferrera was born on April 18,1984 in Honduras. Ferrera also portrayed a role in RealWomen Have Curves and in the movies Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2. She also landed a small role in the project The Dry Land and the Lords of Dogtown back in 2005. Aside from film, Ferrera also shared her voice in the animated film How to Train a Dragon where she gave life to the character of Astrid the Viking.
