The beautiful Sofia Vergara will be newest the CoverGirl!!! The Modern Family star will join other beauties of the infamous brand including Drew Barrymore, Taylor Swift, Queen Latifah, and Ellen DeGeneres.





Sofia beams, "When you grow up, you look up to girls in the magazines, and you never think you're going to be that pretty, or that well made-up, or that glamorous. Latin girls can relate to me, see what I'm wearing, see my makeup, my hairstyle."




She is currently shooting her ad campaign which will debut in January 2012. Being the first Latina woman to represent CoverGirl is such a great thing because many females can relate to her. Sofia is so stunning, and what's important is that she embraces her curves, and doesn't promote an unhealthy lifestyle.

A coalition of openly gay celebrities and their allies have issued a public letter to the president, asking that he complete his "evolution" and come out publicly in support of same-sex marriage. The letter reads, in part:

Like so many Americans, you have spoken of your personal journey toward support for the freedom to marry. You have talked about the gay and lesbian people in your life, their commitment to each other and care for their kids, and their families that aren’t so different from any other family.

We ask you now for your leadership on ending the exclusion of same-sex couples from marriage, an exclusion that harms millions of Americans each day. Whether to end discrimination in marriage is a question America has faced before, and faces again today. With so many Americans talking it through in heartfelt conversations, it is a question that calls for clarity from the President.

Among those signing the letter: Ellen DeGeneres, Anne Hathaway, David Geffen, Martin Sheen, Eric McCormack, Lily Tomlin, Scott Fujita, and Julian Bond.

After his passionate speech defending his two moms to the Iowa legislature went viral, 18 year old Zach Wahls has become a media sensation. Today he appeared on Ellen.
