Elyfer Torres, who?

The Mexican actress, Elyfer Torres, has completely shed the character that launched her to fame from Betty in NY.

She was seen in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, where she was on holiday, before the Telemundo melodrama came to an end. In the photos posted by the actress, you can see her figure in all its glory.

A good example of this is the photo she posted on August 10th, where she can be seen wearing a bikini.

Elyfer Torres faced a great challenge in her career

"When people ask me what’s different about this version, I tend to say that everything is different. Twenty years have passed and our way of seeing the world has changed. Our minds are more open, aside from the fact that we have smartphones and social media now, and bullying is lived in a completely different way", the actress said according to the Mexican newspaper Milenio.

Elyfer wanted to give the character her special touch

She also revealed that she wasn’t interested in watching previous versions of the show so as to not be influenced in any way.

"I didn’t want to watch any other versions so as to not contaminate the character and to avoid subconsciously repeating any of her behaviors. Without judging all others, I think this Betty is more organic—we’re not looking for an "ugly costume", we’re going for a more natural look".

Elyfer Torres had to sacrifice her beauty in order to become Betty

In order to play the role, Torres claimed that she had to let her moustache and her sideburns grow out.

"I let my eyebrows grow and I didn’t use any hair treatment for a while, which led it to look natural, messy, and frizzy so that, when people saw me on TV, they would be able to tell that I’m a real person and not just an actress that’s playing the role of an unsightly girl".

She already left that character behind, assuring us that her experience with it was great. "This project has made me grow as a person because when I was in Mexico, I lived with my parents and, when I moved to Miami, I had to live by myself and so I became more of an adult. I also grew up a lot as an actress", she said in an interview with People Magazine.
