أمريكا فيريرا[2] ( /fəˈrɛərə/ ؛ مواليد 18 أبريل 1984 في لوس أنجلوس)، ممثلة أمريكية ، اشتهرت بدورها في مسلسل بيتي القبيحة وحصلت بهذا الدور على جائزة الإيمي 2007 كأفضل ممثلة في مسلسل كوميدي، وجائزة الغولدن غلوب 2007 كأفضل ممثلة تلفزيونية، وجائزة نقابة ممثلي الشاشة 2006 كأفضل ممثلة في مسلسل كوميدي. Born in Los Angeles to Honduran parents, Ferrera developed an interest in acting at a young age, performing in several stage productions at her school. She made her feature film debut in 2002 with the comedy-drama Real Women Have Curves, earning praise for her performance. Ferrera has won an Emmy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award, among others.

Ferrera achieved modest success early in her career with roles in films such as the Disney original film Gotta Kick It Up! (2002) and the comedy-drama The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (2005); the latter earned her the Imagen Award for Best Actress and her first nomination for the ALMA Award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture. She undertook television roles including the eponymous role on the ABC comedy-drama Ugly Betty (2006–2010). She was praised for playing the protagonist of the series, Betty Suarez, and won several Best Actress awards in 2007 at the Golden Globe Awards, the Screen Actors Guild Awards, and the Primetime Emmy Awards, the first for a Latina woman in the category.

Ferrera's other notable film roles include the drama The Dry Land (2010), the romantic comedy Our Family Wedding (2010), and the crime drama End of Watch (2012). She provided the voice of Astrid Hofferson in the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, including the three films and the television series Dreamworks Dragons. She co-produced and starred as Amy Sosa in the NBC workplace comedy series Superstore (2015–2021). In 2023, she co-starred in the fantasty comedy Barbie.

Time named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2007.

As a continuation of their work prior to the 2020 presidential campaign, Ferrera and Longoria recently held a textbanking event with VoteRiders to educate voters about Georgia's strict Voter ID laws ahead of the Georgia Senate runoff.[7][8]
