Just as last year, Becki attended the 19th Annual GLAAD Media Awards yesterday. She looked absolutely gorgeous in a short yellow dress, and she was accompanied by co-stars Michael Urie and Christopher Gorham. I’ve added 64 photos from the event. Moreover, “Ugly Betty” won the Outstanding Comedy Series award. Congratulations to the cast and crew!

The 37-year-old, who’s no stranger to acting out (albeit not on camera) has yet to film her part for the episode. While the show’s brain trust is mum on her role, she presumably will follow the high-heeled footsteps of former guest stars Victoria Beckham and Gene Simmons and play herself—or at least a version of herself that’s appropriate for family-hour television.
Campbell was originally tapped to appear as a guest star last year but, for reasons unknown, that casting coup never materialized. She was again due to appear earlier this year, but the writers’ strike derailed those plans.

And now she wants more.
No, not another ode to Mr. Simmons, but Newton says she’d like to release an album “someday.”
And she wouldn’t mind some help from an old college buddy from the University of Pennsylvania…
“You know who I love the most—John Legend,” Newton said last night at the Sunglass Hut and Gen Art opening of photographer Jeremy Kost’s Blinded by the Light exhibit at the Century City mall in L.A. “I used to see him playing the piano and singing on campus.”
When a friend suggested she duet with Legend, Newton beamed. “That’s a great idea! I should just call him up.”

“Ugly Betty” finally returned to television Thursday with the all-new episode “Twent Four Candles”! Eventhough Becki wasn’t featured in the episode more than about 2 minutes all-in-all, it was a very good episode. Click on the previews or link below to see the captures I added to the gallery.

Just a quick reminder – don’t forget to tune in to ABC tonight at 8PM for the all-new episode of “Ugly Betty”; called “Twenty-Four Candles”! Personally, I can’t wait to get me some more Amanda! I know many of you feel the same way. 😉 Read the synopsis for tonight’s episode below, and don’t forget to visit Becki-Newton.net tomorrow for screen captures from the show!
Betty’s plans to spend a romantic 24th birthday with Henry are sidelined when his Baby Mama Charlie drops in unexpectedly. Will Gio be able to salvage Betty’s big day? Meanwhile, Wilhelmina does her devious best to spoil blossoming relationship with Daniel by hinting there’s some dark secrets in her sister’s past.
An ABC rep has confirmed to E! News that Naomi Campbell will be bringing her arresting screen presence and her own rather infamous brand of drama to the fashion-forward hit, signing on to guest star in the show’s second-season finale May 22.
Becki Newton belted out “Gene Simmons Is My Daddy” on Ugly Betty when her character Amanda finds out the Kiss rocker is her father.
“Rock and roll! I love saying that… totally feels right.”
