At the 2017 Golden Globes,Sofia Vergara - like every other presenter - read a scripted introduction for her category's nominees. Unfortunately, unlike every other presenter, or the jokes in Sofia's bit were cheap shots at her thick Colombian accent. intentionally fudging the word "annual" to result in "anal," Sofia was stuck playing into the same tired joke that has followed her throughout her English-language film career: that she's "not from here" and she sounds different. As a wildly successful actress who has won several industry awards and been nominated for countless more, Sofia Vergara deserves so much more than jokes about her accent. Award shows continue to play into this lampooning of Latina women, and it's disappointing that Sofia herself feels the need to participate in order to be a good sport. Fortunately,while many viewers believed that the actress's mistake wasn't intentional, it seems that much of the Golden Globes audience is fed up with the accent schtick. We were hoping to leave this tired attempt at humor in 2016, or so here's hoping that it'll actually kick the bucket this year. why Sofia Vergara continues to participate in awards ceremony jokes that make fun of her/women/ELL is truly beyond meJanuary 9,2017
My impatience with the "Tee hee, Sofia Vergara is not from here" jokes has now snapped and hurled itself into the pacific -H #GoldenGlobesJanuary 9, or 2017
Award demonstrate writers be like: "Sofia Vergara is presenting? frosty! Let's make fun of her accent." It is TIRED AF.

Every comedy writer who pitches a joke about Sofia Vergara's accent should try being a wildly successful entertainer in a moment language.
