America Ferrera would!!

The only problem is that there really isn't a plan to do one right now… though we're sure if the fans are loud enough, something might happen!

Here's what she had to say:

America Ferrera showed off her killer curves yesterday outside the Garrick Theatre in London where she’s starring in a production of Chicago.

Ferrera is making her stage debut as Roxie Hart.

The 27-year-old Latin hottie looked fierce in her skin-tight red, Nicole Miller cocktail dress with matching stilettos.

Red is definitely her color!

Ugly Betty, you can sing?!

We don't know anyone who doesn't love America Ferrera, but now there is two more reasons to adore this Emmy-winning actress. America is off to London next month where she will taking over the role of Roxie Hart in the West End production of Chicago. For eight weeks, she'll show off some high kicks and killer notes that we didn't even know she had in her, but we're excited to see all the same!

But don't fret

People en Español isn't the only one turning 15!

Also celebrating their quinceañera is Latina magazine and they're going it big.

For the 15th anniversary issue out September 13th, the mag rounded up 15 of their favorite Latinas to grace the cover (from left to right): Shakira, Selena Gomez, Salma Hayek, Zoe Saldana, Eva Longoria, Gloria Estefan, Michelle Rodriguez, Jessica Alba, Daisy Fuentes, America Ferrera, Rosario Dawson, Ana de la Reguera, Natalie Morales, Rosie Perez and La La Anthony.

Fun fact: this iissue took 9 months of planning, 7 photo shoots, more than 100 red designer dresses and upwards of $10 million in jewelry to create the triple gatefold cover.

Wowsa.

We've been so obsessed with the idea of watching 2 hours of Jakey Poo wearing a police uniform that we forgot that America Ferrera was in this movie too!

Not that we don't love her, of course, but a man in uniform just gets our hearts racing.

America was spotted on the set of the cop drama End of Watch getting her police action on. She looks totally legit! We're a little scared of her in that uniform, not gonna lie!

This role looks like a total 180 from Ugly Betty. We're excited to see this whole new side of America!

Wow! Simply put, she is STUNNING!

America Ferrera married her longtime boyfriend Ryan Piers Williams last night. According to her rep, the event was "an intimate setting amongst close friends and family," filled with love and joy for the happy couple. America dazzled in a dress by Amsale's Christos label and Fred Leighton earrings.

Gorgeous!

We wish nothing but a lifetime of love and happiness for them both! Congrats!

This should be an eye-opening documentary!

Ugly Betty star America Ferrera traveled to India to make a film for PBS about the prostitution epidemic in the country.

Based on the book Half the Sky by Nicholas D. Kristof, the actress visited the red-light district in Calcutta where she met with officials at local schools and charities who provide education and protection for women and children at risk.

Kristof, who accompanied Ferrera on the journey, praised the actress for her work on the documentary, saying:

"America (met) with a terrific 10-year-old girl who has studied English with the help of New Light and wants to be a doctor. Most of the girls in the area get little or no education and follow their mothers into prostitution. America was terrific to work with on the (TV network) Pbs version of Half the Sky."

It's so sad to hear about women and children who are forced to sell their bodies to survive, but we're glad Mz. Ferrera has taken on such an important role and raising awareness through her work.
