Yaya DaCosta Cast on Ugly Betty

Yaya DaCosta, the runner-up in Cycle 3 of America’s Next Top Model will be on next season of Ugly Betty! According to Entertainment Weekly‘s Michael Ausiello, Yaya will play Wilhelmina Slater’s daughter, Nico.

Nico first appeared on the scene in season two and was played by Jowharah Jones. There’s no stated reason for the recast, but Ausiello tells us Yaya will appear in several episodes this season and will get caught up in a new mystery!

This is great news for Yaya, as it will be wonderful exposure for her acting career. Plus, Ugly Betty is a really fun show!
