Sofía Vergara Steals The Spotlight At Agt Despite Eye Drama

Sofía Vergara's Show-Stopping AGT Style

The landmark Season 20 of America's Got Talent (AGT) is ablaze with excitement, and Sofía Vergara is ensuring her presence is just as fiery. Recently recovering from an eye infection that sidelined her from the Emmys, the actress and TV sensation returned to AGT, turning heads in an audacious corset top that had everyone buzzing.

A Bold Fashion Statement

Vergara took to Instagram to flaunt her stunning black corset dress, complete with a daring neckline that left fans in awe. She opted for simplicity with her accessories, choosing just a pair of silver earrings and some sparkling diamond rings to complement her look. Her long, wavy hair added a soft touch to the striking outfit.

In additional snaps, she posed with fellow AGT stars Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Mel B, and host Terry Crews. Vergara also delighted fans with a playful picture featuring a canine companion, showcasing her light-hearted nature amidst the competitive show.

“Didn’t make it to the Emmys but made it to the ER,” Vergara humorously shared on Instagram, with a photo of her swollen eye.

The Unexpected Emmy Night Twist

Vergara's glamorous AGT appearance came hot on the heels of a health scare that saw her miss the 2025 Emmy Awards on September 14. While Hollywood's elite gathered at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, Vergara was instead in the emergency room.

The Modern Family star explained that a sudden and severe eye allergy derailed her plans at the last minute. She even shared videos from the hospital, including one where she rinsed her eye at a wash station. Although not nominated, Vergara was set to present an award that evening – a role filled by Brittany Snow and Malin Åkerman instead.

Despite the setback, the night was a triumph for shows like The Studio and HBO Max’s The Pitt, which clinched awards for best comedy and best drama series, respectively.
