Sofia Vergara

Sofía Vergara is a Colombian model and actress, she was discovered by a photographer while walking a Colombian beach. Soon, she was presented with attractive offers in modeling and TV work, and followed that course. Having been raised rather conservatively and devoutly religious, this was a bit overwhelming at first. In an article in the January 2002 Maxim magazine, Vergara was described as “apprehensive about doing her first TV commercial—until her Catholic schoolteachers gave her permission to take the job”

Vergara is 1.70 m (5 ft 7 in) tall, and she has naturally blonde/sunbleached hair (for films and TV, she is frequently required to dye it brunette to make her look more “Latina”). Vergara was long under an exclusive TV contract with Univision, and after it expired, she accepted a role with ABC in the United States. With ABC, she appeared on the sitcoms Hot Properties and The Knights of Prosperity.

Vergara currently plays Alicia Oviedo in the Colombian version of Desperate Housewives, Amas de Casa Desesperadas. She also currently appears on the ABC drama Dirty Sexy Money as Jeremy Darling’s new love interest. She also made a guest appearance in the Mexican soap opera Fuego En La Sangre.
