Sofia Vergara’s Career Took Off After Becoming A Brunette

Blondes might have more fun, but according to “Modern Family’s” Sofia Vergara, brunettes land hit comedies!

“I started to get jobs [when I dyed my hair dark,]” the actress told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover when she stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Wednesday.

“Before, I would arrive to the audition, blond with the big boobs and the accent and the Latin attitude and they were like, ‘What is this?’ They didn’t know where to put me,” Sofia explained. “The moment I dyed my hair dark, [they said,] ‘Oh, she’s the hot Latin girl.’

“It was the best thing I did,” Sofia added

Her dark ‘do does require a little more time in the salon though.

“It’s hard because I get the blond roots and I start looking like I’m bald. Its terrible,” she said with a laugh.

Her hair color might be altered, but the rest of the 38-year-old actress is the real deal.

“Everything is mine! The boobs are mine, the hair is mine,” Sofia said.
