Vergara's Million Dollar Smile!
ABC's Modern Family star, Sofia Vergara ranked #1 on this year's Forbes magazine's annual Celebrity 100 list as the Top Earning TV actress. The sexy starlet tops the list for a second year in a row, earning an estimated $30 million. This salary is not only attributed her fat Modern Family check, but it includes multiple endorsement and licensing deals with brands such as Kmart, Pepsi, Rooms to Go, and State Farm Insurance.
Not only does she hold the reign of highest paid , but she's also highest in demand. Major brands see Vergara's face as a major payday for them, as brand bigwigs are thoroughly impressed with their investment, allowing them to aggressively target the Hispanic demographic.
The Forbes list is calculated based on earnings between June 2012-June 2013, and tallies numbers based on completed projects and contracts made during the specified time.
In addition, the list not only includes work done on television projects, but also endorsement and licensing deals, which Vergara is a long shot winner of.
Coming up slowly behind Vergara in second and third place (with less than half of the star's earnings) are Kaley Cuoco (Big Bang Theroy), and Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order: SVU) earning only $11 million each (only $11 mill? Bummer..)
Tina Fey, The Kardashian sisters, Bethenny Frankel, Ellen Pompeo, and Melissa McCarthy are all tied at the $10 million mark.
