On the Ugly Betty Tv Show Amanda (Becki Newton) is the attractive receptionist at MODE magazine and is in allegiance with both Wilhelmina Slater and her assistant Marc when it comes to taking down the two major thorns in Wilhelmina’s side: Betty Suarez and her boss Daniel Meade (whom she is attracted to). Amanda’s true goal is to take out Betty, by any and all means, so she can get her job and hopefully be the one who Daniel picks.
