Sofia Vergara On Her 32DDDS, Diversity In Hollywood, And Views On Female Objectification
Sofia Vergara is always sure to stun on the red carpet, not only because of whatever form-fitting designer ensemble she may be wearing but also due to her seriously curvacious frame. The Modern Family star, however, sees a portion of her body as a little bit of a setback when it comes to selecting fashionable pieces and is leaning toward making a change to her frame for good.
When the Latin beauty chatted with Net-a-Porter.com for the EDIT magazine, she was not shy about discussing her size 32DDD breasts and what she intends to do as a means to make her attire more comfortable in the future.
“In ten years, I think it would be good to have a reduction. I don’t even think it’s going to be an option not to. There’s so much under my dresses that I bleed at the end of award shows.”
Vergara confessed her intention to undergo breast reduction surgery just after her co-star Ariel Winter showed up to the SAG red carpet event showing off her recently reduced breast size, scars and all.
In her usual witty and humorous manner, Vergara described her own breasts and expressed her hopes in changing them to a smaller size, as AOL relays.
“[I’ve] got the boobs of a stripper! I wouldn’t make them too small. Just enough that I don’t end up looking like an old stripper.”
Vergara was also sure to open up about how her image is perceived. She makes note of the fact that she is often described by others as wearing the same thing all of the time, yet the star relays that she is content with her wardrobe choices to match her voluptuous physique. Marie Claire Australia references the star’s words from the EDIT interview.
“My body has changed with age. People will often say that I wear the same thing on the red carpet, but I know my body: it’s very voluptuous and I’ve got the boobs of a stripper. They’re a 32DDD and because they’re real, they’re everywhere, so I need my dresses to have structure – and under armor.”
Seeing Sofia has always been a gorgeous woman with a body that has women the world over envious, and men in drool mode, the star is certainly used to objectification. However, Vergara also does not see objectification as such a horrible thing and notes that she’s confused as to why some become so offended by it.
“I’ve never understood why women get so offended [by being objectified]. I just don’t believe in all that drama, which is why I’ve made a whole joke out of it. I am secure enough not to take it all that seriously, and I like to laugh at myself. My husband was a male stripper in Magic Mike XXL – do you think he was offended by [the objectification]? I thought it was hilarious. As for whether he has ever danced for me, I really couldn’t say…”
Sofia’s interview with the publication also resulted in her discussing her views about diversity in Hollywood.
“I’m really not one to complain. I mean, seriously, how dare I! Here I am on prime-time television with this stupid accent, I can’t trash anyone. It would be so ungrateful of me because, trust me, I’ve been treated like a queen. Of course [the opportunities] can’t compare to an American or Caucasian woman’s, but things are changing.”
That being stated, Vergara also sheds light on the stereotypes that are certainly present in roles she is offered as a Latina woman, yet she makes it known that she is continuously grateful for being able to be trusted with so many great roles while being a face for her culture and background.
“I’m not afraid of them, and they don’t have to be bad, either. I mean, Gloria [Delgado-Pritchett, played by Vergara in Modern Family] is an amazing character: a really good woman with this hilarious accent, so why criticize her for being a stereotype? Plus, all the Latinas I know are loud, they dress sexy and are really involved with their families: that’s Gloria!”
