Regarding the jobs she’s been offered, Vergara remarked, “It’s hard because this accent is beautiful, but it’s like, I cannot be a scientist, I cannot be an astronaut.”
Though actress Sofía Vergara has also been known for her beauty and melodious accent, she was initially resolved to get rid of the latter over fears her speech would limit the opportunities that would come her way.
The 51-year-old Griselda actor said, “I cannot take this accent away no matter what,” while talking about the parts she has been offered since her days on Modern Family. She also stated that she didn’t want to play her character “Gloria [Pritchett] again” in another comedy series.
“I tried when I first started my career,” she recounted during the drama actress round table hosted by The Hollywood Reporter. “I couldn’t believe Salma Hayek or Penélope Cruz didn’t change their accents—they would have had so many more opportunities—when I first went to Los Angeles. I’m going to carry it out.
Then, Vergara continued, “I wasted so much money and time with people teaching me, and it was a f—ing waste.”
The actress talked candidly about the challenges she had landing a serious part after playing Gloria, a Colombian bombshell and single mother, on the ABC sitcom for 11 years.
She said, “It was almost like playing myself.” “In my entire life, I never attended an acting class. It’s difficult for me to change my direction since, although my accent is lovely, I feel like I can’t be an astronaut or a scientist.
She did more than just hire a dialect coach as a preventative step to advance her career. Vergara said that she has never lied to “get a job,” but she did admit that she has “lied to my agents so they would take me when I moved to L.A.”
“I said I could sing and dance. Why not? She giggled, “I didn’t think they were going to send me out.” “After that, they sent me to a Broadway audition in Chicago.”
She was cast in the role of “I played Mama Morton in Chicago,” in spite of her first worries.
Vergara stunned viewers with her portrayal of Miami drug queenpin Griselda Blanco in Netflix’s Griselda, despite the fact that she may be best known for her comedic roles.
During an appearance on former costar Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s Dinner’s on Me podcast, the actress remarked on having “a lot of similarities” to the drug lord and how her own family’s experiences with sorrow informed how she handled the character.
Sadly, Vergara’s elder brother, who had been in the drug trade for a while, “was killed in Colombia in the ’90s.”
Thus, I believed I comprehended a good deal of those topics. I understood that business, I understood that woman, and so I felt it was a really interesting character,” she said, noting that she didn’t approach the role looking for “a character to prove that I can be a tragic actress.”
She continued, “I felt that it had to be someone that I kind of, like, knew who she was.”
New alarming verdict on Prince George, Princess Charlotte, & Prince Louis amid Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis
With her public announcement of her cancer diagnosis, Catherine, Princess of Wales, put an end to the many theories and conjectures that had been making the rounds in the media ever since her scheduled abdominal surgery.
She stated in the video that tests performed by the doctors after her surgery revealed the malignancy. She went on to say that before telling the public, she and William needed some time to break the news to their kids.
Royal analysts surmise that Kate had a purpose in releasing the film on Friday at 6 p.m., as their kids’ school had already ended and they wouldn’t be confronted with inquiries about it right away from their peers.
A palace source told the Times, “George is ten now and can’t be shielded from any of this now.””He won’t be able to avoid it once it’s in the school playground and at the school gate.”
Grant Harrold, the former butler of King Charles, claims that when Kate and William informed the kids about her disease, they approached each child differently. He thinks that when they told Prince Louis about her health problems, the couple probably “sugarcoated” them.
Grant Harrold told the NY Post, “I’m sure it was a very difficult and very different conversation between children.””I’m sure the conversation with Louis was more sugarcoated than it was with George and Charlotte, for example.”
“The older children can understand more, so I’d imagine it was a little more frank but undoubtedly staying positive, which is so important,” the former butler went on.
This explains why you now cry when you see the photo of Kate with her three kids. It’s important for any mother to have that talk, and you can bet Charlotte and George will be there to support her.
Louis is too little to comprehend her mother’s situation, he continued.
It’s a challenging one. He told the NY Post, “I’m sure the kids will handle it as any kids would be expected to handle it, but I think that will rub off on the kids because their parents are very good at being calm and collected.”
The kids will spend Easter break with their parents at Anmer Hall on the Sandringham Estate, where they may go egg hunting and have fun.
Easter Sunday mass will probably be attended by King Charles and Queen Camilla, but not by the family.
Danielle Stacey, the royal expert for Hello! Magazine, stated, “It’s understood that King Charles may attend a church service on Easter Sunday with a smaller royal turnout if his health allows it.”
“As he continues his cancer treatment, Charles has minimized his contact with larger crowds to reduce risks,” the spokesperson added. “The King has performed for small audiences at Buckingham Palace, but he hasn’t gone to any major events since receiving the diagnosis, like the Commonwealth Day service, the Korean War Veterans’ reception last week, or the late King Constantine’s memorial in Windsor last month.”
About 110 miles outside of London is the Norfolk country estate known as Anmer Hall, where the Princess of Wales is believed to feel “most at home.”
She previously stated that she is happiest “outside in the countryside with my family.”
She would be creating Easter cakes with the kids, and they would be decorating them with Cadbury eggs.
Three years ago, it was said that the children surprised Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip with “personalized Easter eggs, which they made and decorated themselves.”Grandpa Charles and Step-Grandmother Camilla will probably get one of them this year.
As previously indicated, their parents host an annual Easter egg hunt in which George, Charlotte, and Louis will participate.
“It was a real treat because they don’t let George, Charlotte, and Louis have chocolate and sweets every day,” the insider told Us Weekly.
In addition to playing tennis and going on family bike excursions, George and Charlotte also enjoy taking horseback riding lessons. Charlotte shares her great-grandmother’s obsession for horses. It’s her preferred pastime.
For Kate, spending time with her kids has always been a blessing.
“She constantly says that having her family around helps her get through tough times, and the kids always make her day happier. The Us Weekly source continued, “She feels incredibly fortunate to have her children and a wonderful family.
Thus far, Prince George has not experienced any negative effects from royal news. However, it’s possible that his mother’s illness will, regrettably, be his first introduction to the responsibilities of being a member of the royal family.
According to royal analyst Sarah Vine, Kate Middleton and William are “lucky” that their kids are still “quite young,” as it would be more difficult to keep them safe from finding out about their mother’s diagnosis online if they were older.
“It’s imperative to attempt to manage the kids because they will undoubtedly have a lot of questions and it’s just really scary knowing that your mother is ill,” she said.
“Plus, kids on the playground are cruel, so it’s better that it’s not exposed to the kids on the playground just yet,” co-host Andrew Pierce continued.
