oh I also like this answer. It is related to the other one you posted too:

“Q. Do you like the character Gio? Do you think he had a positive or negative influence on Betty?
— Sal
A. I love the character of Gio. Freddy Rodriguez brought more to the table than we could have ever expected. His chemistry with America was remarkable and palpable — Gio’s personality, his energy and character, had Betty questioning many of her ideals, and that was important to us in writing the show.”

CONGRATULATIONS S TU LEY!!! (Sarah) you won!!! That was a very good question about the wardrobe. And Horta did answer many of the Getty Girls and Detty questions.

Both winning questions were very good. Congrats to both of you, Cali and Sarah. Way to go, girls!!

It makes me happy to know a great actor like Freddy Rodriguez and his chemistry with Ferrera forced the writers to re-write his character. We are his fans for a reason. He does appeal to audiences, doesn´t he?

Even though Betty’s style is evolving, she is certainly not turning into a MODE girl. It’s an adapted style, but not exactly polished or glamorous. It’s definitely Betty-fied.

Gee… I wonder what Sarah could’ve asked the Mode Girl question?

Thanks for publicizing that Q&A with Horta! I think it was pretty awesome that he answered some questions from fans.
