Tennis fans will recognize Brooklyn Decker as tennis champ Andy Roddick’s gorgeous wife — she’s in his box all the time!

The 22-year-old Sports Illustrated swimsuit model is making a cameo on the hit ABC show Ugly Betty next week (October 30 @ 8PM ET/PT).

Here’s a synopsis of the ep: Betty (America Ferrera)is overwhelmed with her editorial work, so Wilhemina assigns Marc (Michael Urie) to be Betty’s temporary assistant. Betty’s story idea to cover the worst jobs in New York goes south when she has to dress up as a hot dog and do a Bollywood dance number. Meanwhile, Marc frets that he’ll never be taken seriously by his idol at Vogue magazine, Hilda gets Archie’s campaign in trouble, Daniel (Eric Mabius) hires a gorgeous but inept assistant (Decker), and Natalie introduces Daniel to the Community — a group whose charismatic leader (Dylan Baker) zeroes in on Daniel.

FYI: Brooklyn is wearing the fierce pair of Brian Atwood “Wicked” shoe in purple suede (as worn by Katy Perry and Jessica Stroup).

America Ferrera dresses up as a hot dog and costar Michael Urie dons a bread bun costume while shooting an episode of Ugly Betty in Midtown Manhattan on Tuesday (August 25).

This seems to be an Indian-themed episode as Betty (Ferrera) and Marc (Urie) are both wearing bindis.

That costume looks to be quite constricting for America. She wasn’t even able to feed herself! America had a production assistant feed her a banana. Hah!

This could be the makeover that Betty Suarez gets this season — braces off and all!

“She looks a lot classier,” one source told EW about Betty’s new look. “But she’s still far from perfect.”

Exec producer Silvio Horta added, “There’s going to be a progression in her look overall. It’ll still be Betty, but you’ll see some growth in that direction.”

Former Sopranos star Jamie-Lynn Sigler has joined the cast of Ugly Betty, reports EW.

The 28-year-old actress will play Natalie, the sexy, spiritual, funny new assistant to Mode magazine exec Daniel Meade (Eric Mabius). Natalie replaces Betty (America Ferrera), who was promoted to features editor in last May’s season finale.

Jamie-Lynn will debut during the two-hour season 4 premiere of Ugly Betty @ 8PM ET/PT on Friday, Oct. 9 on ABC.

America Ferrera visits her Ugly Betty costar Michael Urie at his off-Broadway play The Temperamentals held at the TBG Theatre on Saturday (July 18) in New York City.

“Temperamental” was code for “homosexual” in the early 1950’s, part of a created language of secret words that gay men used to communicate. The Temperamentals tells the story of two men - the communist Harry Hay and the Viennese refugee and designer Rudi Gernreich (Urie) - as they fall in love while building the first gay rights organization.

JustJared.com had the pleasure of watching The Tempermentals the same day and is happy to report that Michael gives a great performance — and not just because he strips down to his skivvies! The entire cast is excellent and apparently their off-set chemistry is just as good. After the show, I spotted Michael and his castmates lunching together at Hell’s Kitchen restaurant!

The show plays until August 23rd. For ticket info, visit TheTempermentals.com.
