Modern Family most popular cast member Sofia Vergara is making news with the launch of her new perfume fragrance named "Sofia." The star credits her success to the building of her brand and decisions like not "fixing" her Latin accent.
It you like the how Sofia Vergara looks, you're going to love the way she smells, and she bets you'll like it enough to pay for it.
And don't worry about this being some off the shelf scent that just has Sofia face and named slapped on the front of it, because, like she told Women's Wear Daily (via Huffington Post):
"I usually don't like getting into things where I don't have a say. I just don't want to give them my name and say, 'Do whatever you want.' I am trying to create my brand.
"I've been able to do many other projects. I have my clothing line, the makeup, the hair, the furniture, and this was something that really rounds out my brand."
In fact, Sofia makes all the big decision about her career path; Vergara told Women's Wear that when it came time to ditch her accent, she decided to keep it:
"When I started acting I thought, 'Oh, I'm going to move to Hollywood, I'm going to take the best speech class.' I didn't understand how Penélope Cruz and Salma Hayek had not fixed their accent.
"When I would go to auditions I would get super self-conscious of what I was saying, and I couldn't concentrate on the acting. I was just concentrating on the pronunciation.
"One day I said, 'This accent is never going to change....I'm going to keep trying the way I am and, if it doesn't work, I'll go back to the Latin market."
Thank god that never had to happen.
