Presenting: The New Ugly Betty!

Is it too late to rename the series Pretty Betty?

As filming for ABC’s Ugly Betty gets underway, the show has given its main character a serious makeover.

Played by America Ferrera, Betty Suarez has said goodbye to her braces and sayonara to her messy, curly hair.

In April, producer Silvio Horta warned fans about the impending new look. He said: “There’s going to be a progression in her look overall. It’ll still be Betty, but you’ll see some growth in that direction.”

That’s for sure. Compare the before-and-after shots below:
