America Ferrera: Behind the Scenes Sure, you've already seen the interview and photo shoot with Ugly Betty star America Ferrera from BlackBook's August 2008 issue.

The drink of choice was margaritas, the aptly named Juan Coronado was the man with the music, and we have no one but Partida tequila to blame for some people taking Outkast’s “Hey Ya!” a tad too seriously.
