Elle Hosted A Screening Party For Ugly Betty’s Finale

by Tom on May 28th, 2008

Elle Magazine’s Robbie MyersYou might have watched the Ugly Betty season finale, episode 2.18 (Jump) from the comfort of your living room, or maybe you held a viewing party with friends. Well, according to Women’s Wear Daily, fashion Magazine Elle hosted a viewing party at the Tribeca Grand in New York City. (It would seem that the cast and crew are already settling into their new home).

Ugly Betty creator Silvio Horta was there, along with Becki Newton and other crew members. Of course, Elle editor in Chief Roberta Miles and creative director Joe Zee were there.

It would seem that both Myers and Zee were self-critical of their performances. Zee had a hard time watching himself on screen (I can relate). “It’s so hard for me to sit in that room! I hate watching myself,” he said while standing outside at the bar during a commercial break.

I found it interesting that both Myers and Zee, editors that they are, reworked their lone zingers. Myers changed her original line “Bite me!” to “Bite this!” because the former seemed too crude. Zee’s line, one of the funniest of the night, was his own creation: [To Wilhelmina] “I’m not going to be distracted by how fat you look in white.”

Maybe we’ll see more Elle/Mode collaboration in the future?
