Sofia Vergara had to hide her curves for ‘Griselda’ role: I wore ‘uncomfortable bras that pushed me down’
Sofia Vergara may have showed off her famous curves as Gloria in “Modern Family” for 10 years, but for her role as drug lord Griselda Blanco it was the complete opposite.The Colombian actress, 51, revealed what it took to transformation into her character for the upcoming Netflix series, “Griselda,” in a new interview.“The hardest thing was that I had to wear a wig, fake teeth, fake nose, and have a plastic forehead. I also had to wear uncomfortable bras that pushed me down to make me look less Latin,” she said during an appearance on “The Graham Norton Show,” which airs Friday.“It was a complicated character for me, but it was my first film in Spanish which was so liberating,” she added.Vergara revealed that she first had the idea for the show nearly 15 years ago.“It is a true story of a woman that no one ever suspected of being one of the biggest drug dealers that ever existed,” she said on the British program.“She created an insane cartel, and I went crazy for the story.
