February 27, 2020 by Marisa Roffman
Sofia Vergara‘s MODERN FAMILY may be coming to a head, but she’s won’t be off television for long: the actress has joined the AMERICA’S GOT TALENT judging panel, NBC announced.
“I’m so happy to join my new family on AGT,” Vergara said in a statement. “This is a new and exciting next chapter for me and I’m extremely proud to be the first Latin judge on the show. I can’t wait to watch all the talent and have fun with all you guys!”
Vergara joins returning judges Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel, as well as host Terry Crews. Heidi Klum, who took a hiatus from the regular version of the series (she judged THE CHAMPIONS), will also be back.
“I’m so excited to be back at AGT with Simon, Howie and Terry,” said Klum. “The fact that Sofia Vergara is joining us is the icing on an already delicious cake.”
“Sofia’s infectious energy and sharp wit will blend perfectly with returning favorites Heidi, Simon, Howie, and Terry. As both a respected actress and successful entrepreneur, she embodies the American dream that is synonymous with AGT’s transformative stage,” said Meredith Ahr, President, Alternative & Reality Group, NBC Entertainment.
“As we head into our milestone 15th season, we are excited to welcome Sofia to the AGT family,” added Trish Kinane, President of Entertainment Programming, Fremantle. “We are also delighted at the return of the amazing Heidi Klum and look forward to a lot of fun as these dynamic, accomplished women join Simon, Howie and host Terry Crews to inspire contestants in a fun-filled and unpredictable series.”
