Leben
Sofía Vergara begann ihre Karriere als Model und erregte erste Aufmerksamkeit in Lateinamerika durch einen Auftritt in einem Werbespot für Pepsi. Für den spanisch-sprachigen Fernsehsender Univision arbeitete sie daraufhin als Moderatorin populärer Sendungen wie Fuera de serie und A que no te atreves.

2002 hatte sie ihren Durchbruch in Hollywood mit einer Nebenrolle in der Filmkomödie Jede Menge Ärger von Barry Sonnenfeld mit Tim Allen und Rene Russo. Es folgten Auftritte in den Filmen Soul Plane, Dogtown Boys und Vier Brüder. Für Vier Brüder wurde sie mit ihren Co-Darstellern für einen Black Reel Award in der Kategorie bestes Ensemble nominiert.

Im Fernsehen trat sie durch Nebenrollen in den kurzlebigen Sitcoms Hot Properties und Knights of Prosperity in Erscheinung. Seit Mitte 2007 ist sie Mitglied der Besetzung von Amas de Casa Desesperadas, der kolumbianisch-ecuadorianischen Version von Desperate Housewives, und der Anwaltserie Dirty Sexy Money.

2004 startete sie ihre eigene Modekollektion, mit der sie bis zu 1500 Arbeitsstellen in Kolumbien schuf. Für ihr soziales Engagement wurde sie 2000 als Woman of the year ausgezeichnet. 2002 erhielt sie als erste Kolumbianerin die Auszeichnung Women of hope für ihre Vorbildfunktion für junge lateinamerikanische Frauen.

Vergara hat einen Sohn (* 1991) aus einer geschiedenen Ehe.

Sofía Margarita Vergara (born July 10, 1972) is a Colombian model and actress. Since she was raised bilingual in English and Spanish, this his been an expedient in her making the transition from being a performer in Latin America in Spanish to becoming one in the United States in the English language. Dubbed "Sofia Viagra", Vergara was already rather well-known in North America from her modeling work, and her first notable acting job in English was in the movie Chasing Papi

Personal life
Vergara was born in Barranquilla, Atlantico, Colombia. Her mother is a homemaker and her father produced cattle for the meat industry. "Toti" was the nickname given to Vergara by her five brothers and sisters and many cousins, including television news anchor and reporter Carlos Vergara, who works for WTVJ in Miami, Florida. She grew up in her hometown of Barranquilla and was raised in a well-off family, attending a private bilingual Spanish/English school. Vergara was married at the age of 18 to her childhood sweetheart, and she gave birth to her son Manolo in 1992 at the age of 20. After the break-up of her marriage, Vergara studied pre-dentistry at a university in Colombia for three years. Then, many opportunities arose to work in modeling and in show business, and Vergara decided to pursue these in Latin America. Soon she decided to move to Miami, Florida, to take advantage of opportunites and to move away from unrest in Colombia (her older brother had been murdered in 1998 during an attempt to kidnap him that went awry). She brought her son, mother, and sister with her.
Vergara's son Manolo lives in Westwood, Los Angeles, California, where he goes to high school.

Career
Vergara was discovered by a photographer while walking on a Colombian beach. Soon she was presented with attractive offers in modeling and television work, and she considered accepting them. Having been raised rather conservatively and religiously, this was confusing at first. According to an article in the January 2002 issue of Maxim, Vergara was "apprehensive about doing her first television commercial—until her Catholic schoolteachers gave her their personal permission to take the assignment." Vergara made her first appearance as a performer at the age of 17 in a Pepsi commercial that was widely broadcast in Latin America. In order to support her son, mother, and younger siblings who needed her financial support in the absence of her father, who had left the family, Vergara dropped out of college to earn an income.
Vergara moved to Bogotá at age 20, where she worked as a model on the runway and on television. From 1995 to 1999, she was co-host with Fernando Fiore on Fuera de Serie ("Out of the Ordinary" or "Over-the-Top"), a travel series that sent her to exotic places around the world. It was telecast on the international Univision Spanish-language television network, and it made her a star in the Latin American market. It also gave Vergara television exposure in the United States via the Univision stations there. She co-hosted the Univision show A que no te atreves ("I Dare You"). She appeared as a guest star in the season-four opening of the HBO series Entourage.
Besides runway and catalog modeling work, Vergara did independent projects. She was photographed for posters and swimsuit calendars in 1998, 2000, and 2002. These were wide sellers in Latin America,[citation needed] and they also appeared in the North American market.[citation needed] Vergara appeared in Spanish-language television ads, and she posed in swimsuits for posters for Miller Lite beer.[citation needed]
Vergara is 1.70 m (5 ft 7 in) tall, and she has naturally light brown/sunbleached-blonde hair (for movies and television, she is sometimes asked to color it brunette to make her look more typically Latina). Vergara was under an exclusive television contract with Univision for several years, and after it expired she accepted a role with the ABC network in the United States. Vergara appeared on the ABC situation comedies Hot Properties and The Knights of Prosperity.
Vergara plays Alicia Oviedo in the Colombian version of the television show Desperate Housewives, which is called Amas de Casa Desesperadas. She also appears on the ABC drama Dirty Sexy Money as Jeremy Darling's love interest. Vergara has made guest appearances in the Mexican telenovela Fuego En La Sangre.
