She looks Latin like Spanish from Spain or Italian, but she can never pass for a Nordic.
what do u mean? she’s the same or even more “nordic” looking than Cheryl Cole/Pam Anderson who are full Nordic
She’s almost 40 and has changed her look a bit but if u see the Young Sofia, in what was her most natural state…

well obviously shes changed because shes no longer young like those photos but she still one 40year old hot sexy mamasita. Besides i rekn she suits black/brown hair. She dont like her natural blonde hair anyways
I love her! Shes so beautiful! ( I love the new rule thing; NO RACIST OR ABUSIVE COMMENTS OR YOU WILL BE BLOCKED. I got so tired of racist comments
Just an observation,if someone is Colombian,Mexican,or other LatinAmerican descendent they are just labeled such.No one is asking how much European,American Indian or African descent Sofia Vergara has,so why ask that about Americans ? how much of this or that they have.Wouldn’t they all just be American?
It’s just a question of available information.
