Sofia Vergara has been on top of her game for almost a decade, and we’ve just got another proof she’s an unstoppable force in Hollywood. The Modern Family star topped Forbes’ list of highest-paid TV actresses – for the seventh time in a row.

According to Forbes, Vergara netted $42.5 million between June 1, 2017, and June 1, 2018. She earned most of it thanks to the role of energetic, outspoken Gloria Pritchett, but Modern Family isn’t her only source of income.

Sofia Vergara also owes some of her fortune to several lucrative endorsements and licensing deals, including her collaborations with SharkNinja Coffee and Rooms to Go.

What makes her ranking even more impressive is the fact she made more money than all of the male TV actors this year. Jim Parsons, who came in first, earned $26.5 million over the same period of time.

  1. Sofia Vergara (Modern Family) – $42.5 million
