SOFIA VERGARA

I like comedy. I would love to do comedy for a long time.

I always tried to do the best for my kid.

If a Latina falls in love with someone who is insecure, it can be a nightmare.

When I travel abroad, because I'm Columbian, I'm always one that they check twice and security and I'm the one that they open my bag and the one they pull to the side to check the visa.

I'm a natural blonde. But when I started acting, I would go to auditions and they didn't know where to put me because I was voluptuous and had the accent, but I had blonde hair. It was ignorance: they thought every Latin person looks like Salma Hayek.

You know, I was the class clown in Catholic school, but I never thought I would make a living out of it!

Confident people have a way of carrying themselves that makes others more attracted to them.

I left Colombia because Univision brought me to the United States.

When they tell you that you have cancer, you panic.

People shouldn't stay married because of the kids. That's torture for everyone.

Not everybody's confident their whole life.

When you have a kid, you have to be more mature.

I love heels, I'm telling you. When I walk in flats, I get knee pain.

I understand English; I read and write English perfectly, but the accent won't go away.

I didn't want to be an actress. I wanted to be a dentist, but you never know what life will bring you.

If you're asking if my breasts are natural, yes, this is how I've looked since I was 13 years old.

I hate to work out. I get in a bad mood when I have to do it!

Listen, I didn't know how to make coffee when I came to the United States. Because in Colombia the maids do it.

I don't think God cares if I wear nail polish or not. I don't think that's a deal breaker for him.

My problem is desserts. I am obsessed with desserts.

I'm not athletic.

I never thought I would get such a perfect role in 'Modern Family.' A lot of TV shows now are looking for more Latin women.

I do think it was fantastic to have a kid young. My friends now are all panicking if they haven't found somebody to have kids with. It was never like that for me because I already had the kid!

Yes, I'm blonde. When I started as an actor, because of the accent and my body and my personality, it was not what the stereotype of the Latina woman in Hollywood is, so they didn't know where to put me. The blond hair wasn't matching. The moment I put my hair dark, it was better for my work.

I'm obsessed with food!
