Am I the only person that finds Sophia Vergara

annoying as hell?  Now she has a new Kmart collection and the commercial keeps coming on.  I may have nightmares if I can't get her voice to stop running through my head.

  • I love her, but I can totally see how she could be the Latina " 'Janice' from Friends," for others.

    Lol. That's an awesome analogy.

  • DH refers to her as the Latina Fran Drescher (a la "The Nanny"). I must say I think that's a pretty accurate description.
  • What is she selling at Kmart?

    She's a little over the top, but she doesn't drive me totally nuts.

  • I think it was bedding and other home stuff.

  • I love her! The Verizon commercial where she says in her SV way that her "walk in closet has a walk in closet" cracks me up all the time!

  • I think she is ridiculous
  • I think she's funny on Modern Family, but that may only be by contrast to the Dunphy family who is really unfunny (except for Luke).

  • I liked her before she was on my television every 30 seconds and in ads in every magazine I read.  Ads for Modern Family, Pepsi, Cover Girl, Kmart - and I feel like I'm leaving some out.  I understand her wanting to cash in on newfound fame but she's seriously overexposed.

    all of this.

    I love her on Modern Family. But I almost never watch tv anymore and the maybe 2 times a week I turn it on, she's all over the place. Plus, she's in my magazines, on several websites...too much!!! 

  • Nope. My H does. 
    Bazinga!

    5 Love Its

    I love her. She was hysterical on SNL doing Fran Drescher.

    She's going to play me in the Lifetime movie about my life. lol

    SO SINGS MY SOUL *WHAM!* MY SAVIOR GOD TO THEE *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!* HOW GREAT THOU ART *WHAM!*
  • Eh.  I don't get the love.  She's OK on Modern Family and decently good looking.  What annoys me is how she milks the "I can't speak English very well because I'm an exotic immigrant" thing.   I think she makes her accent worse on purpose for half of her commercials, which there are far too many of.  It's like the Ricky Ricardo schtick, except it's not original or funny anymore.  I especially hate the Covergirl one with Ellen where Ellen makes fun of her, saying she can't understand her and "whea bluh blah?"  Why would Sophia be OK with that commercial?!

    I'm not hating on people with accents, btw.  My parents moved to the US from Puerto Rico when they were in their 30s and their accents have never been that strong, despite their not knowing English when they arrived in 1976.  It's how she seems to dumb herself down to play into the stereotype that bugs me.  Maybe I'm wrong, but that's how it seems to me.  Obviously I don't know her.
