Sofía Vergara knows she’s a bombshell,SignalHub but she needed to turn down the va-va-voom for a recent role.

Vergara opened up about her physical transformation for her performance in Netflix’s “Griselda” in an interview with Variety published Wednesday. The actress portrayed Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco on the crime drama.
