    America Ferrera can’t believe super-slim actresses like Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba are labelled “curvy”.

    The “Ugly Betty” star insists she is more deserving of praise for her genuinely shapely figure than the two slender screen beauties.

    She said, “There’s just way too much attention placed on the way we look. I think it’s hilarious when people call Jessica Alba or Eva Longoria curvy. Come on - they’re not curvy. I’m curvy!”

    “I’ve been really lucky. Playing Betty has prepared me to be exactly who I am and not to change. What is normal now? Is it normal to be size zero? Starving yourself is not beautiful.”

    The 23-year-old actress loves the fact that playing the dowdy-looking Betty means she doesn’t have to constantly worry about her appearance.

    She added, “If I’ve gained a pound or lost a pound, or have food in my teeth, it all works for the show!”

    Ferrera admits she does occasionally obsess over her appearance, but loves food to go on a diet to lose weight.

    She told Britain’s Star magazine, “There are times when I go to the gym and really try, and there are times when I just don’t. Even if I wanted to be anorexic, I just don’t have what it takes. After four hours of being anorexic, I’d be like, ‘It has been four whole hours. Feed me!’ ”

    “Ugly Betty” Finds Beauty At Golden Globes

    America Ferrera won Golden Globes Awards

    Sending big stars home empty-handed, the Golden Globes gave a boost to some television newcomers on Monday, particularly America Ferrera of ABC’s “Ugly Betty” and Alec Baldwin of NBC’s “30 Rock.”

    Teary-eyed but smiling widely, Ferrera won the award for best comic actress on TV just a few minutes after the show itself was named best comedy.

    It was a true underdog’s tale. Ferrera competed against four women who had all been nominated for Golden Globes in the past, including two desperate housewives. ABC had such little faith in “Ugly Betty” initially that it was scheduled for the TV graveyard of Friday nights, until the network sensed a buzz and premiered it on Thursday, where it has flourished.

    Ferrera said she hears every day from girls inspired by her character, Betty Suarez, saying it “truly brings a new face to television.”
