Hollywood actresses meet Obama at White House

Latino actresses Eva Longoria, Rosario Dawson and America Ferrera have met US President Barack Obama to discuss immigration reform.

Musician Emilio Estefan and his TV star niece Lili were also among the stars who Thursday visited the White House, where Obama stressed his commitment to overhaul the immigration policy, reports contactmusic.com.

After the conference, Longoria revealed that Obama had voiced his support for the Dream Act that would help young immigrants become legal and get an affordable education.

"Obviously we were all disappointed that it didn't pass. They're wonderful students. It's really undebatable that they should be here and continue their education. We need an educated workforce and these kids would be that," said Longoria.

Ferrera 'not thinking about wedding plans'

America Ferrera has insisted that she is not currently thinking about planning her wedding.

The Ugly Betty star got engaged to director Ryan Piers Williams in June.

The couple then visited US troops in Iraq and are now promoting The Dry Land. The film stars the actress and was written and directed by Williams.

Ferrera told People: "If there is a scale between 0 and 10, I'm at like negative 10. I haven't gone there and [am] not thinking about [wedding planning]. We got engaged and then left for Iraq the next day.

"We both talk about it (the wedding). It's so crazy because right now the only thing I'm sure of is that there will be a cake and music!"
