Sadly, Paula Abdul is not coming to Ugly Betty.

But the mob might be!

The ABC series has sent out the following casting notice for a recurring character named "Bobby." It certainly sounds like he could have appeared in The Sopranos, doesn't it?

Bobby: A thirtysomething sexy, masculine Caucasian male from Queens, Bobby works for the family business. He’s a good guy at heart, but he can also be dangerous and violent. Producers will consider only local New York actors.
