LATEST: UGLY BETTY star AMERICA FERRERA is worried about moving her hit show from Los Angeles to the east coast - because she fears filming will upset New Yorkers.
The city's mayor Michael Bloomberg welcomed the series' relocation after producers announced the show would be moving east last week (06May08) to make the most of new tax incentives on offer in New York.
According to city officials, the move will create more than 200 jobs in the Big Apple.
But Ferrera isn't convinced New Yorkers are so eager so see the show leave its L.A. roots.
She says, "I'm excited. I'm a little nervous too. New Yorkers are really cool. I'm just a little nervous about hoe they're going to accept the show. We'll be on the street blocking the way."
Crewmembers on the L.A. set protested the decision last week (08May08), when its 300-strong staff banded together to take out an ad in trade paper Variety to highlight the resulting job losses prompted by the move.
