SAG Award Reveals Nominations: Will Sofia Vergara Finally Take Home Award?

Sofia Vergara, the Latina actress, has received a Screen Actors Guild Nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series for her role as Gloria in “Modern Family.”

For the Columbian, who admitted to having trouble being taken seriously as a career comedian, this is the fourth SAG award nomination for playing Gloria, the much younger, noisier, and more flamboyant partner of Jay Pritchett, who’s played by Ed O’Neill.

Her role as Gloria has earned Vergara many accolades and a slew of award nominations, but she has never once won an individual award. The cast has won several awards for being the best cast ensemble.
