The 2008 NCLR AMLA Awards, or American Latino Media Arts Awards, were held last night in LA with Eva Longoria hosting. The show will be broadcast on September 12 at 8pm on ABC. The ALMA Awards honor Latino performers and were started in 1995 by the National Council of La Raza, which aims to promote opportunities for Latinos in the US.
Last night's big winner was the popular show Ugly Betty, with star America Ferrera named Entertainer of The Year:
U.S. TV hit UGLY BETTY was the big winner at this year's (08) ALMA awards - scooping four of the ceremony's most prestigious gongs.
The ALMA Awards, which took place on Sunday (17Aug08) at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Los Angeles, celebrates the artistic achievements of Latinos in the entertainment industry.
America Ferrera, who plays the title role in Ugly Betty, won the award for Outstanding Actress in a TV Series, while her on-set sister, Ana Ortiz, scooped the gong for Outstanding Actress in a Supporting Role.
The popular ABC show also landed the Outstanding TV Series award, as well as a nod for the series' scriptwriter, Silvio Horta.
The Outstanding Actor Award was split, with judges failing to decide between Battlestar Galactica's Edward James Olmos and Michael Peña for Walkout, with both receiving the honour.
In the movie category, Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett's Babel was voted the Outstanding Motion Picture, with the film's supporting star, Adriana Gonzalez, taking home the Outstanding Actress award.
Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture went to Jesse Garcia for his role in 2006's moving family drama Quinceañera. The event attracted a host of hot Latino stars, including Eva Longoria Parker, Jessica Alba, and Disney sensation Selena Gomez.

Here are photos of the arrivals and press room. Jessica Alba looks amazing, but that dress is a little too prom queen and I would like to see her in something more elegant. She probably doesn't have much time to pick out a dress with a two month old at home. Also shown are America Ferrera, Ashley Tisdale, Paula Abdul looking ridiculous, Selena Gomez, Eva Longoria and Tony Parker, Ryan Secrest and Amaury Nolasco, Shakira, Charlie Sheen, Karina Smirnoff, Mario, Zac Efron and Rosalyn Sanchez.
