Salma Hayek, one of the most beautiful actresses today, is lending two of her best assets to promote her new TV show, “Ugly Betty”. In a four-episode story arc for November sweeps, Hayek appears as a beautiful mystery woman who mysteriously loses her shirt in an elevator.

“Ugly Betty” is an adaptation from a smash Spanish-language telenovela which aired in 2001 and became an international phenomenon. The show is about a plain Jane named Betty from Queens (America Ferrera) who wears super-sized braces, horn-rimmed glasses and really bad outfits, but somehow charms her way to a job at a high fashion magazine.

The Oscar-nominated Mexican actress Hayek started her acting career in Spanish-language telenovelas. Now she is Executive Producer for “Ugly Betty”, one of ABC’s few breakout hits of the season.

“It’s a lot of fun to go back and do it,” said the 38-year old actress Hayek. “I’m making fun of myself, and very rarely do you get an opportunity to do that. By the time we finished shooting that, we were all rolling on the floor, laughing. It’s causing — I already know this for a fact — a lot of excitement in the Latin community.”

I can’t speak for the Latin community, but her picture is sure generating a lot of excitement here at Sexy-Starlets.com!
