Sofía Vergara‘s charm and wit might have fans convinced she’s always confident, but even the Modern Family alum, 51, has her moments of self-doubt. During a recent event in Los Angeles, the actress admitted that she felt self-conscious about filming a sex scene for her intense Netflix series, Griselda.
“I don’t think I’ve ever done, like, a sex scene. With Jay [in Modern Family], I didn’t do anything,” Sofía said during a Netflix FYSEE event in L.A. last weekend, per The Sun. “I was like, ‘Where are they shooting me? The cellulite? From the side. Uh, I’m vain I guess. That one kept me awake I think.”
Nevertheless, Sofía acknowledged the final cut “came out good.”
“It’s really dark, and Andy [Andrés Baiz], the director, is very artistic, and he made me feel super comfortable and he’s like, ‘We’re never going to stay, like, a long time on you [on camera],” she explained.
While approaching the character — who was inspired by the real-life “Cocaine Godmother” Griselda Blanco — the New Year’s Eve star wanted her “to look real,” which is why she wore a prosthetic nose, fake teeth and additional makeup for the transformation.
“And so it took me forever ,and I couldn’t find a way to do tests and this and that,” Sofía pointed out. ” I wanted her to look from that era [the 1970s]. But also she needed to be a [sexy]. She needed to have something because she had, like, three husbands. She could get the guys.”
Since it took hours to transform into Griselda, Sofía recalled having to remove all of her prosthetics and makeup.
