Ugly Betty Ep 406 - Prom Queen

[@Poeley]

What I loved about Hilda was when she found out her son was gay she didn't even think twice about throwing him a coming out party (even if he didn't want it at the time) and she never had any issue with her son being into things out of the norm for a young boy, in her eyes her son was perfect and thats how a mother should treat her child gay,straight,bi or trans just be happy to have them and happy if they are happy

[@vanessaives5546]

I actually thought it was cool his own grandfather was okay with it! The older generation are mostly perceived as closed minded and it was cool to know he has always accepted Justin whilst when it came to Justin's father he didn't even want him around Justin since he knew Santos, though he showed some changes before death, had his own view of what his son should be like!

[@hismajesty9951]

My mom doesn’t treat me the way you said.

[@Mangrove417]

We know you're gay and its ok!!!!!!🤣😂😂

[@joshiejuke]

Justin handled this situation gracefully and beautifully! Well done!!!

[@Octobris]

When Justin said "I'm not gay" and Marc responded with "then he's not"... I love how Justin's journey to self-disvovery was respected even though it was tough for Marc and Hilda seeing him in denial.

[@elizabethhirst9419]

You got to love how Mark respects Betty's family.

[@AR-nt3cw]

I love marc in this scene he sees Justin take his earlier advice and run with it. Not only that but turn the joke on them. Then the way he looks and Hilda at the end and says 'then he's not'. Just shows his support and is not trying to force it but let Justin come out on his own terms is really sweet. Also love the look between him and Betty.

[@dania4510001]

I bet the writers on Glee got the inspiration from Justin to have a boy win the prom queen crown

[@kittea24]

Eat your heart out Kate Middleton

[@aissatasall4156]

Laura G I read this and legit cried, oh Kurt

[@beccagregory3586]

That scene killed me

[@val-vt4xw]

best mom goes to hilda. she is amazing

[@chopin65]

Courage is not standing against hate, it is crowning sacrifice and love.

[@TRahjey]

David Henson can I steal this please? These words of yours did something to me that the universe cannot comprehend right now. I need to help it comprehend. So plz?

[@IAmThatHero1]

Suck it, Glee Prom Queen episode! Now this is how you do a "gay kid gets voted prom queen as a cruel joke, only to accept it and rise above it" story line

[@ryeencoke]

I wish I had been so brave in high school.

[@agenttheater5]

I would've added something like him telling the elected king in front of everyone not expect them to date or anything because he's not his type, and then add that he's just relieved it wasn't the jock who was doing the announcements who got elected.

[@chillingincedarrapids5892]

That would have been grand

[@OpheliaFantasy]

It would've been funny but the nice thing about it is that he didn't even need to throw shade to make his point. That takes a lot of heart.

[@kmmk5022]

@@OpheliaFantasypersonally I think that it could do with some shade for comedic effect

[@user-mg1qj2dp9b]

I hate that they did that to Justin. It is so awful. But I love how Justin reacted.

[@robbyflockman2024]

******************** best reaction

[@viljaspoetry]

This scene made me cry, it's so amazing! I love Justin

[@magick333]

they truly are an amazing family.

[@ella9120]

Ikr there the best! Hold as a great mom. I wish I was part of that family tbh 😂

[@mygirljoey]

I agree, I wanted to start a family because how much this family as fiction as it is loved and supported each other.

[@jadebrier3050]

Idk but Justin's got style baby

[@Sallie13]

Well done justine. He was soooooooooooooooooooooò brave. They just idots.

[@Sallie13]

So brave

[@dharj]

OMG, Justin is my hero. I love him!

[@Livingallalone]

How I miss "ugly Betty"

[@MajorAlenko]

I watched Glee and straight away remembered, well didn't Ugly betty do this exact thing? and I'm pretty sure ugly betty handled it ALOT better than Glee did...

[@madomurielle2012]

AdmiralAlenko

[@nyhotlatino]

I just saw the actor who played Jed from Legacies on stage as one of the Bullies the one wearing the Crown and the olther is from a Disney movie Teen Beach.

[@rmk2762]

Damn this was classy!!

[@elizabethhirst9419]

This is still one of my favorite shows!

[@Crooksie135]

I cried my eyes out so bad... this changed my perception on life. if only i was that strong and brave and sassy ;) Thank You Ugly Betty, you changed my life x

[@ungoodpirate]

@IAmThatHero1 I am Glee fan and do not even watch Ugly Betty, but this version is much, much better. I keep watching Justin scenes on here and find him kind of all sorts of awesome.

[@massimogaron]

Very beautiful scene from the show

[@johniii8147]

Aunty Mark was very proud

[@shannarattan8963]

Best mum in ugly betty goes to hilda she is the best love this scene

[@gleicya.1818]

He should've said " the crown looks better in me anyway, bitches

[@H.so.]

i definitely shed a tear during this episode.

[@robsysory]

glee totally copied this!

[@quentincarey]

It wasn’t a copy! Stuff like this happened all the time back around this time. This was 2009 ,Glee was 2011. People weren’t as accepting back then. Many other shows did this too. It’s to Bring awareness.

[@pharell792]

Quentin Carey they got inspired by ugly Betty though you can see it

[@Hashwas]

Power to the gays. xxx

[@amosmaka6030]

Justin handled the situation without Violence, without fear and quite beautifully. 👌.

[@ravenmathews6925]

What is this mysterious liquid coming from my eyes??

[@quinenufor8117]

It's tears 2017

[@buleflamingo3975]

i almost cried.

[@TRahjey]

OMG! Love this moment!!!!!!

[@christinaj9365]

I'm Crying Again For The Third Time.... I Sometimes Things It My Fault My Mom Don't Do Her Dreams Like Go Into The Air force Or Even Get Into College...

[@MrAsianAxolotl]

Omg that's so cute *A*♡

[@Hari-om6yx]

It was really funny but I might fall in love with the kid. He's brave and dam cunning with the situation( he knows what to do when he's in trouble)

[@noelohashirodriguez]

The brave ones are those who stand up to fight and challenge, to desmistify negative beliefs, fed by the fear that persists to be diffused from the hearts of those who suffer pressure to keep on affecting those who are different. And we stand up, by staying who we really are. And we stand up, protected by the wild tiger soul.

[@jaimylopez2868]

Everbody love ur Mom tell ur Mom u love her

Mothers Day 2023

[@Hollyberry95]

Crying!

[@john4ever01]

@the1shadylady He did come out in a episode where he danced with his bf, if his family didnt get that as a hint then WOW

[@noone2975]

I disagree; i think the glee one was really good. Both were amazing tho.

[@antoniotizzano6801]

La dolcezza di Justin...... Ha distrutto i bulli

[@EuroMIX2]

@FashionistoIRE The Glee episode is equally crushing because Kurt is lead to believe that some progress has been made towards acceptance and people simply don't care, but his hopes are ruined when he realises that, true to life, when people can't voice their opinions openly they do it in sneakier and much more subtle ways. How does having your life threatened make you a victimised troll exactly?

[@agenttheater5]

Good point - I guess I liked this scene because of the 'tacky baby's breath' part where the guys see their unoriginal prank fail before them but the 'Glee' episode does go a little deeper into the situation, people finding another less vocal way to voice their biased opinions.

[@n4nikita28]

Reminds me of glee prom:)

[@seanluve]

Justin was the cutest 🤗 Any mum be proud if he was real ✌🏼💓 Not gay though 😐

[@specialpatrolgroup92]

Yeah, because american TV high schoolers are always receptive and respectful of other people's heartfelt emotions :/

[@EuroMIX2]

@FashionistoIRE Furthermore, I'm a gay man; not a teen but I am young. Kurt's storyline is one of the few things in the world that has helped me barely hold back from committing suicide myself. His resilience, hope and drive is what helps give me strength, so please think first before you try to speak for every gay youth out there as if you know what they are all thinking and feeling because you obviously don't.

[@sassy741321]

@RyeEncoke YEA HE DID i love him soooooooooo much

[@vixlet.22]

If this happened in real life I would’ve popped the announcer in the nose. Goooooo honey goooooooo!

[@EuroMIX2]

@onedaylikethis It's not like the creators of Ugly Betty own the rights to the "gay guy is voted as prom queen as a cruel joke" though. I'm sure lots of shows use similar ideas, but that's no reason to claim that they are ripping each other off.

[@hardcandy9880]

When I saw this episode I was like "wait? He's not? Isnt it common knowledge he is?" Then I learned about how sexual orientation and gender experession arr different. That just because someone is effeminate or likes things usually associated with the opposite sex, does not necessarily mean they are gay.

[@ch2010ize]

Did you just like not finish the show?

[@EuroMIX2]

@FashionistoIRE I already told you that you were correct. You are obviously right. I need to stop foolishly responding to people like my opinion actually matters. It's difficult you'll understand because a small part of my mind keeps playing up and telling me to say something when I know that I shouldn't. I'm getting there. Soon... I know what I have to do.

[@IAmThatHero1]

Suck it, Glee Prom Queen episode! This is how youdo a "gay kid gets voted prom queen as a cruel joke, only to rise above it" story line.

[@AnaLopez-el8xf]

I love Justin did he's mom 15year ago

[@louisianaboy86]

@LolaMonrain He came out Later, like at the end of the show...

[@stieffanoirodikromo3766]

wow , shocking video

[@asbaran]

I didn't get to watch this season so I'm confused. Is Justin in denial about his sexuality does he honestly identify as straight?

[@1019awesomegirl]

@robsysory A lot of "original ideas" are copied nowadays.

[@EuroMIX2]

@FashionistoIRE Comparing the two scenes though, Ugly Betty's was more preachy. It seems like they neutered the "gay queen" thing by making it more about his mother while Kurt's scene really hammered home how horrible subtler forms of homophobia can be and even the strongest of people can break down. I actually like how Glee handled the concept more.

[@mihaelakinna2344]

❤️😊

[@jasonivancontreras9340]

Ella puede ser mi reina cuando quiera ahhhhy mamacita!

[@EuroMIX2]

@FashionistoIRE Forget it, you are probably right. I'm wrong about everything anyway. I give up trying to have an opinion because my very existence is wrong. You are right, a character that is one of the only things that gives me any slither of hope must be wrong, "weak", whatever. If Glee were so good then it could have saved me from what I'm about to do, but it can't. Goodbye.

[@nawiwatkishimoto7533]

lovely :)

[@megaswenson]

And naturally, they make the Bad Guys a white as they possibly dare - which considering it's Queens, they only dare cast whitISH guys as the villains. So, I guess we have to give them credit for not making the student body look like an all-blond one in North Dakota.
