Ugly Betty

Gwyneth Paltrow wishes to leave her Brad Pitt-dating 20s in the past, the Emmys don't show a lot of love for True Blood and four other favorites, and Robert Pattinson is just one Eclipse star snapped looking sexy.

Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member Joliz from the Assisted Living group:

Hey ladies and gents! I had the awesome privilege to tour the set of Ugly Betty a few months ago and have been obsessing over some of the things I saw, in particular a very Super Mario-esque toadstool in Betty's apartment, as seen here:

As a geeky girl, I love what I interpret as a subtle nod to video games and since I've recently re-done a room in my apartment with layers of varying greens and neutral browns I would love this unexpected pop of red color. I've been looking on Etsy and have come up unsuccessful and the girl who gave the tour wasn't sure where it came from (though she did note the set design department shopped a lot at Ikea, CB2, west elm, etc.). I did sit on it and it was quite comfy though frankly I'd use it as a footstool more than likely (or a decorative touch). If anyone could help me I'd be over the moon!

Last night, we sadly said goodbye to Ugly Betty and the wacky friends, family, and coworkers in her world. A lot has changed for Betty in four seasons (as evidenced when we got a quick flash of Betty's former self with her choppy bangs and orange poncho), and this week she embarks on a brand-new adventure in London. The series finale doesn't have any epic twists, but it still manages to tug on the heartstrings while squeezing in a few last-minute laughs. Here's why I loved it:

• All of the characters get a new beginning. Wilhelmina gets Connor back (not to mention the magazine all to herself), Mark gets more responsibility, Amanda gets a dad, and Betty's whole family gets a fresh start. I especially loved that Betty's dad is excited to live alone after sharing the house with many a Suarez over the years.
• Betty and Daniel come close, but no cigar. Many of you were split about whether Daniel and Betty should finally get together, and it looks like the writers were, too. Daniel all but admits to his mother that he still has feelings for Betty, but he never 'fesses up, and there's no big kiss. Instead, he follows Betty to London and offers to take her to dinner. Is it a date? Is it a friendly meeting? It could go either way, which I thought was a satisfying way to open up the possibility without jumping the shark.
