Happy Birthday, Becki Newton!

July 3, 2009 by Tom  

Celebrities on location for "Ugly Betty" in City Hall Park Tomorrow is Becki Newton’s birthday – born on the fourth of July!  The Ugly Betty star turns 31.

She gets a fireworks show every year on her birthday, that’s got to be awesome.  To have the figure she does, she probably doesn’t pig out on BBQ every year, though.  :)

Newton was born in New Haven, Connecticut, and raised in Guilford, Connecticut.  She graduated with a BA in European History from the University of Pennsylvania.  (I had forgotten this – I would imagine it would make her recent trip to the UK more meaningful).

On Ugly Betty, Newton has played Amanda Tanen (Sommers), Fey Sommers, and Ruthie (in 1.12 – Sophia’s Choice), a role she absolutely shined in.

She also was in the great movie August Rush.

Becki graced the July cover of Lucky Magazine (beautifully).  She told them at the time of the shoot, “I get excited around summer clothes—it’s the one season when you can put together a whole outfit without spending tons of money.”

Happy Birthday Becki!  I hope your hubby Chris Chris Diamantopoulos gives you the Queen for a Day treatment, then you get to enjoy some fireworks!

    I can’t believe Becki is only 31. man! We’re almost the same age. Geez… *glares* she looks so freaking hot. And not only she’s talented, her personality is wonderful too. Nothing like Amanda. She’s super smart, funny and kind (or so it seems from the podcasts and interviews). Way to go Becki.

    @Bia. I’ll be waiting for the fanvid. How on earth would you manage to make one so quickly?! *envy stare*

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECKI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
