Hey, Betty!

Filed under: Mika

Mika has re-recorded his hit song Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) for the new worldwide advertising campaign for the upcoming season of Ugly Betty.

"Betty is a real fashion icon and we should celebrate anyone like her - genuine individuals who stay true to their own identity," says the singer. "That's what Big Girl is all about so it was the perfect fit to change the song for her. It was a huge honour to be asked to do it. I love the show."

      Just in case Mika didn't figure it out yet….. She has no identity, because Ugly Betty is a FUCKING CHARACTER on TV. Moron.

      world-wide? a German series that has been running for 3 years is almost finished. why would we want to see it again but copied from ours?

      I'd be more impressed if Betty was a size 12, 14… or more. But, she's a size 6 to 8. Ugh.

      a bit of a sellout on my darling Mika's behalf. But hey, whatever. It's still pretty catchy.

      "…we should celebrate anyone like her - genuine individuals who stay true to their own identity…"

      Hmmm… Mika could learn from his own words…

      Dear Michele: Ugly Betty is the American version of "Yo soy Betty, la fea" a very successful Colombian 'novela' the story of which is so compelling, it has been produced in several countries with adaptations that ring true to each place it has been re-created in: Mexico, Spain, the U.S., Germany, and counting. Do not be confused, this story is NOT German, it's a COLOMBIAN original.

      I liked the orignal song better. I love Mika .

      Dude, I loved that song, and this sickens me. I'm sorry, but this new version makes me ill on so many levels. I'm really disappointed by Mika right now.

      i love MIKA and i think the (big girls) song is awesome! however, betty (america) is not big. why play the song? you should give it to someone who actually IS big. doesn't make any sense to me. i mean…really…

      Who cares about a "guy" named Mika…..(hate men with baby names, or is he a chick???)

      I love America Ferrara.

      I *really* tried to like this show…but I just don't like it. I *can't* like it. There's 100 shows on television better than this. Mildly entertaining at best.

    52. Abby36 says – reply to this


      52

      Shells, thank you for educating some of these people (Michelle for example.) The original Ugly Betty came from Colombian more than 4 years ago and ever since it's been very popular all over the world. I love the "new" Ugly Betty and this song I hope they start using it as the promo for the new season.

      OMG MIKA IS ONE OF THE FUGLIEST PEOPLE EVER! HE IS SO GROSS TO LOOK AT. I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT HIS GROSS FACE. SICK!

      Hey Perez - can you find out if he's going to play San Diego's Street Scene festival. He was on the list and now he's not. I don't know if I should go or what…

      'Big Girl you are beautiful' How sweet that a closetted gay like Mika is pretending to like women. Perez Hilton's refusal to call Mika out on his cowardice makes Perez look like an asshole for the manner he treats similar people - ike Wentworth Miller and Jodie Foster
