Vanessa Williams chemistry with Michael Urie helped him land regular role on “Ugly Betty”

Let’s face it, one of the most hilarious parts of Ugly Betty was the chemistry between the characters played by Vanessa Williams and Michael Urie. They were magic together diva fashion magazine editor Wilhelmina Slater and her equally diva-like assistant Marc St. James. I never knew this story that Urie shared last week on The Drew Barrymore Show about how Urie was instanty elevated to cast regular and went on to be in every episode of the series because of the chemistry he and Williams created. The actor also talked to Drew about his new Netflix gay holiday rom-com to Single All the Way in which he works with Jennifer Coolidge.
