Sofia Vergara Promotes Her Skincare Brand as She Heads in a Daring One-Piece: ‘Summer Is Almost Here'
Sofia Vergara is ready to embrace the summer sunshine as much as we are, and she's doing it in style! On May 27, the Modern Family alum shared a series of photos of herself looking as radiant as can be. She shared the photos on her Instagram with the caption reading, 'Summer is almost here!!🌞🌞🌞 @totyeurope @toty.' More from SheKnows Iskra Lawrence's Baby Daughter Prima Made Her Runway Debut at 7 Months Old Alongside Her Mama Along with tagging her popular skincare brand, Toty, we see Vergara looking so gorgeous in a purple, tied-up one-piece that shows off her glowing skin and stunning curves. We see her pose in the new look around a rather picturesque lounging area, and sending fans into a frenzy. And we couldn't be more excited for summer time as well! Vergara is one of the highest-paid actresses, working on America's Got Talent, sitcoms, and a bunch of advertisements, along with being a modern-day beauty icon. In a previous, rare interview, Vergara talked to Home Business Magazine about her beauty icon status. 'Well, it's great that at this age I'm still considered a beauty icon because you know after you start feeling time goes by, things change,' she said. So of course, I love it, I think it's great that I'm showing a little bit more of the Latin looks all over the world, I'm showing a little bit of my ethnicity off.' And in a more recent interview with E! Online in 2024, she talked about wearing bikinis throughout her life. 'Swimsuits are always difficult for women, no matter what age, what size, what race. We all have our insecurities. But once you get older, it's even more because we don't look the same,' she said. 'When you reach a certain age, you know life more. That's one of the fun things about getting older: You realize what's important in life and what is not.'Best of SheKnows Elizabeth Hurley & Billy Ray Cyrus, & More of the Best Red Carpet Debuts From Celebrity Couples Over the Years Yoko Ono's Daughter Kyoko, & 22 Surprising Celebrities That Were In or Linked to a Cult 7 Ways Chrissy Teigen Has Altered Her Appearance Over the Years: Plastic Surgery & More

The Guide #193: Meet Ernesto, the viral America's Got Talent contestant … who doesn't exist
Have you heard Ernesto's story? It's a real tearjerker. You may well be familiar with it, in fact, having caught it on YouTube, TikTok or Instagram at some point over the last few weeks. A hard-working carpenter, Ernesto devoted every ounce of himself to his wife and child, skipping meals and working overtime to provide for them and send his son through college. But things changed: said wife and child grew distant and walked out on poor old Ernesto, who lost his house and sense of purpose, eventually ending up on the streets. The one thing Ernesto did have left? His beautiful baritone singing voice, of course. Somehow the 54-year-old found his way on to the America's Got Talent stage, to perform not for fame and fortune but in the hope that his wife and child might hear him and remember that he never stopped loving them. Suddenly misty in here, isn't it? If you're welling up, you aren't alone – Ernesto's sad tale and stirring performance of his song Still Waiting at the Door certainly reduced the America's Got Talent judges to tears: Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Nick Grimshaw and … wait, Nick Grimshaw? Grimmy's apocryphal presence on the AGT judging panel – he's never been on it in reality, given that, with respect, he's a British radio host unknown to most Americans – is the first clue that there might be something fishy going on here, as are the appearances of fellow non-AGT judges David Walliams, Amanda Holden, Cheryl Tweedy, and an Ant-less Dec sobbing side-stage. There's the strange, out-of-sync reactions from gawping audience members. And then there's Ernesto himself with his fuzzy outline, jerky movements, and suspiciously smooth skin texture – all telltale signs of fakery, as anyone who read an earlier Guide on deepfake scams will know. Yep, this heart-rending story of a lonely carpenter is AI fakery. It was created by YouTube account AGTverseai, which specialises in splicing together videos from various UK and US talent shows to react to AI-generated performances of songs that might be AI, or AI-assisted, too. 'Some visuals and audio have been altered or enhanced using AI tools', a disclaimer in the video description reads. 'The scenarios presented are fictional and intended solely for entertainment or illustrative purposes. This is not real footage and should not be interpreted as fact.' If Ernesto's performance not being 'real footage' seemed insultingly obvious to you, you may well be in the minority. The YouTube comments for the video are, in the vast majority, credulous and approving. In fairness, plenty of the accounts posting those comments could be fake themselves: YouTube comment threads, like everywhere else online, are susceptible to bots. Still, there are enough seemingly authentic commenters praising Ernesto's performance, and likening it to their own experiences of loss, to suggest this isn't wholly artificial. The video has been played 24m times over its two 'official' YouTube videos, and a post of it on TikTok has a further 30m views – and that doesn't factor in the many, many other accounts that have reposted and disseminated it on various social media platforms. Search for the song title Still Waiting at the Door on Instagram or TikTok and you will be greeted by a wall of Ernestos warbling away (sorry for ruining your algorithm, by the way). The video has received a debunking from factchecking site Snopes, usually a clear sign that a fabrication has travelled far and wide. What's really interesting though is that there are plenty in the comments and elsewhere online who know the video isn't real – and still love it regardless. ('I never thought AI would bring such emotion,' one bandana'd YouTuber gasped.) We hear plenty about AI's depredations – its replicating, flattening and hollowing out of popular culture, the sea of AI slop – and perhaps assume that an ethical and aesthetic aversion to it is universal. But what if, per a Times piece this week looking at the popularity of AI personal essays, poetry and therapy, some people actually prefer the artificial? Why watch an actual TV talent show, whose contestant's backstories might not match the emotion and drama of their performance, when you could watch an artificially enhanced performance instead? Already there are dozen or so on the AGTverseai channel, full of overly ripe, sob-inducing tales: an ex-con singing about finding God in prison; a woman with 'a cancer' finding solace in song; a 95-year-old second world war veteran paying tribute for his fallen comrade. They're preposterous, gratuitous and pretty obviously fake – but maybe that doesn't matter if they give you the feels.

Sofia Vergara, 52, puts on a leggy display in a plunging lace-up brown swimsuit as she shares racy throwback snaps
She is no stranger to turning up the heat on social media. And Sofia Vergara ensured all eyes were on her as she took to Instagram on Tuesday with a slew of racy throwback snaps. The actress, 52, who was recently spotted with a handsome mystery man in Cannes, sizzled in a brown swimsuit as she posed up a storm on a couch. The dark brown one-piece featured a plunging lace-up neckline that gave a glimpse of her ample cleavage and showed off her toned legs. She accessorised with a stack of blinging jewellery and left her highlighted brown tresses to fall natural over her shoulders. Sofia captioned the snaps, which were taken last year: 'Summer is almost here!!' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The post comes as Sofia's rumoured romance with Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton has come to an end after they were spotted enjoying a series of days out. In January, the pair were seen dining with friends at Breakfast by Salt Cure in the West Village. Sofia and Lewis were seated next to each other at a restaurant table where they were joined by friends. Observers claimed that Sofia hardly ate any of the food in front of her, as she was so engrossed in the table talk. Outside the restaurant, she and Lewis could be spotted grinning broadly and chatting with one another before she slipped into an SUV and left. However, as reported by RadarOnline, the pair's relationship fizzled out after Lewis' interest had waned, leaving the Colombian beauty feeling 'abandoned'. Over the years, Sofia has romanced a number of younger men, including her second husband Joe Manganiello, 48, and ex-fiancé Nick Loeb, 49. Meanwhile Lewis famously carried on an on-off relationship with Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger from 2007 until their final split in 2015. Now, the beauty may be looking for a new love, but the right man would have to meet certain standards. 'I want to say the basic stuff, like health and somebody that loves me,' the star told Today hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Erin Andrews on May 14. 'And somebody tall, handsome.' However, Vergara, whose net worth is estimated about about $180 million is looking for an equitable relationship. She explained: 'I want somebody that has as much money as me or more, because if not, it's a nightmare. 'They end up resenting you. And I want somebody fun. I need fun in my life. ''Why? Because deep down, many men are socialised to view themselves as the financial providers in relationships.

Sofia Vergara turns heads in busty corset top after mocking poor men
Sofia Vergara is used to turning heads and she did it again on Sunday in Monaco. The actress, 52, who was recently spotted with a handsome mystery man in Cannes, put on a curvy display while attending the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco in Monte-Carlo. The America's Got Talent judge wore a lacy white corset with black stays over a pair of low waist wide leg acid washed jeans. Her long, brown hair was styled straight and she appeared to be wearing natural looking makeup behind her dark sunglasses. The Modern Family alum accessorized with a small white crossover bag. According to Athlon Sports, the Griselda star was spotted at racer Lewis Hamilton 's garage. Vergara and the racing champ, 40, were spotting having a long lunch in New York City in January, sparking speculation about a possible romance. The two were not photographed together on Sunday. Vergara, who is single, may be looking for a new love after her separating from actor Joe Manganiello in 2023. The pair finalized their divorce in April 2024. However, the right man would have to meet a certain standards. 'I want to say the basic stuff, like health and somebody that loves me,' the ___ told Today hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Erin Andrews May 14. 'And somebody tall, handsome.' However, Vergara, whose net worth is estimated about about $180 million is looking for an equitable relationship.
