America Ferrera Ties the Knot!
Independence Day? Not for this America!
Putting an end to her fairly long engagement, former Ugly Betty beauty America Ferrera has tied the knot with her longtime beau, filmmaker Ryan Piers Williams.
E! News has confirmed that the duo, who first met as students at the University of Southern California, became husband and wife on Monday night in an intimate ceremony with close friends and family in attendance.
No exact location for the ceremony was revealed, though the 27-year-old Emmy winner walked down the aisle in a dress by bride favorite Amsale's Christos label, and—as every starlet must—a pair of Fred Leighton earrings.
The low-key couple quietly revealed their engagement last summer, when America showed up on a red carpet at the Edinburgh Film Festival wearing an engagement ring. Congrats, you two!
Style Showdown: America in Black or Stacy and Maria in White?
It's black, it's white... Alice + Olivia's Tessa dress ($396) that is. But does it look better in dark or light?
Maria Menounos tried to edge up her white version with Camilla Skovgaard bandage sandals at an Omega VIP dinner at the Ritz Carlton. A for effort, but she should've continued the look with a smoky eye and fiercer accessories.
Weeks later at a Lia Sophia Lanaya II collection preview, Stacy Kiebler kept in line with the Grecian feel of the dress by accessorizing with glowing skin, a gold belt and a Lia Sophia gold bracelet. The nude peep-toes only enhanced her already ridiculously long legs. The result? Pure goddess.
But our fave was America Ferrera at the Illusionist premiere in Scotland. The dark color was incredibly flattering, the belt showed off her figure, her slick straight hair didn't overpower the one-shoulder design and snakeskin Giuseppe Zanotti peep-toes added the just the right amount of spice.
Who do you think looked best? Sound off below!
America Ferrera's Getting Hitched!
She said adios to Ugly Betty, now America Ferrera is saying hola to real-life love—and that's a beautiful thing.
The Emmy winner is set to tie the knot with longtime beau Ryan Piers Williams, her rep confirmed to E! News.
There's no word yet on a wedding date for the super low-key couple, who met while both were students at the University of Southern California (he cast her in his student film, the rest, as they say…)
But while she's keeping mum on her big news, the 26-year-old bride-to-be couldn't hide her engagement ring, proudly showing off the diamond at the Edinburgh Film Festival last night, where she was premiering The Illusionist. Congrats!

Adios, Betty! America Ferrera's Ugly Goodbye
America Ferrera was sad last night. Ugly Betty had its final wrap party.
Ferrera and company gathered at Room Service in New York City to say goodbye to the series, which ends later this month after four seasons.
Ferrera was joined by Eric Mabius, Judith Light, Ana Ortiz, Mark Indelicato and Michael Urie, among others, according to a fellow partygoer. (Vanessa Williams was expected to show up after her performance in Broadway's Sondheim on Sondheim, but our spy left before she arrived.)
So what went down? Read on to find out…
Gerard Butler: "I Wouldn't Mind Being That Guy"
In How to Train Your Dragon, the otherwise slimmed-down Gerard Butler plays a giant, hollering Viking with a filthy knotted beard, a character he describes as "like him on steroids."
The would-be dragon slayer tells E!'s Daily 10 that his thick-skinned warrior/father Stoic is one of the things that that led him to the animated flick: "I wouldn't mind being that guy."
Click on the clip to find out who Butler says he'd like to have train his dragon (oo-la-la!), and hear from costars Jay Baruchel and America Ferrera.

Review: How to Train Your Dragon Swift, Smart and Only Slightly Dangerous
Review in a Hurry: I know, I know. Another story about dragons. But not so fast. Swift action, a smart script, stunning animation and capable set of voice actors come together for a movie that soars. The story has enough heart and thrills that it doesn't need the amazing effects—but 3-D IMAX elevates this family flick to a whole new level. So much so, these mythical beasts seem as real as your cat.

Morning Piss: Who Can We Hate on Grey's Now?
Now that all that diva dust over Katherine Heigl's leaving Grey's Anatomy seems to be settling (somewhat), gotta say I'm pretty damn bummed.
Who the hell are we going to hate on now?
The outspoken star played sensitive yet headstrong doctor Izzie Stevens for six exquisitely painful seasons, and that character almost made me like the actress too—but not quite. I'm not one to tell a gal to pipe down—hey, if she's got an opinion, let's hear it—but Kathy has developed quite the snotty rep in recent years.
Between dissing the Emmys, scheming her way in and out of roles and bitchin' about anything and everything, K.H. can be downright grating!
But recently Katherine's onscreen ego has become just as much of a downer as the star, so I can't say I'm too disappointed to see her get the silver screen boot. Though who will replace her as the star we all absolutely can't stand?
Review: Our Family Wedding Feels Borrowed and Blue
Review in a Hurry: The in-laws freak out when a young interracial couple—she's Latino, he's black—announce their plans to marry. This culture-clash comedy stumbles down the aisle with gags that are old, borrowed, and blue (yes, including ones about the little blue pill)—but precious few that are new.
