vergara_bowen Sofia Vergara, it turns out, might be having a feud with Modern Family co-star Julie Bowen if you consider the fact that Julie called Sofia "Cholo Barbie" last night on Chelsea Lately a bad sign. Which we kinda do. Good thing we're living in a post-racial society or we'd say that Julie is kinda racist with all that dishwashing talk. Her anger--or insecurity--was well earned after Sofia completely dissed her during her appearance on Chelsesa Lately some weeks ago by failing to remember Bowen's name despite the fact that the two work together day in and day out. Seriously, though, Sofia should be on television like everyday. She's a yuck a minute.

    That interview of her (Sophia) on Chelsea is hysterical! She's so freakin cute and beautiful! Julie just celosa. ;)

    I'm north-of-the-border Caucasian, and i'd TOTALLY come out of the woodwork to see Sofia. Sofia's a big reader who says she read cien anos de soledad at age 11. That doesn't necessarily make someone brilliant, but I don't think she's stupid. It was unprofessional of her, however, to not know her costars name,

    Sofia was super funny. I agree that it was unprofessional of Sofia but it also was unprofessional of Julie to make a whole interview into a Sofia bashing rant. She just came off as a bitter-betty and a tad racist, although she tried to mask it with laughter.

    Racists always hide behind comedy. If you call them out, they just say that you don't "get" it.

    I usually just read this blog but this Julie woman needs a reality check and some self esteem boost. Just because a person forgets your last name, it does not give you a right to disrepect the person's ethnicity, race, culture. Pure ignorance!

    She just just wishes she had half of Sophia's sex appeal...pobrecita la gringa! This was totally racist...so apparently we all work in the kitchen and we are all from South of the border. Someone needs to inform the gringa here that many are born in US soil, and that many of us have higher educations. Que pendeja!

    Goes to show how all whities think all Latinos come from either Mexico or Puerto Rico- no in-between. She is Colombian stupid! Cholas are of Mexican American descent...

    Julie Bowen seems very insecure, jealous and racist. Must be hard for Julie to be the plain girl on the show.

    Her name should be Julie Boring. Even Chelsea Handler, who is also a bigot, was getting sick of it and wanted to move on.

    Sorry, but I'm Team Julie Roland, er, Bowen all the way. "Cholo Barbie"? Come one, that's a good one. I'm totally stealing it. Eh, it's just a workplace hate-on. No need to blow it up into more than that.

    why in the fuck are you guys posting everything about cholas, chola this chola that. what chola means is a fucking thug. We latinos want the U.S. to view us in a different way yet we ourselves keep sterotyping our culture as cholo. give me a break. why don't we embrace a more educated culture. i for one never knew that cholo shit till i arrived in this country, it was used way back in the 50's and i thought it was only for tv, remember the tin-tan movies.

    actually, the term cholo/a goes back a few hundred years and has a very different meaning in south america: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholo. mostly, it's been used pejoratively to insult and belittle people of indigenous heritage, although in recent times there's been a move by those with mixed heritage towards taking ownership of the term and giving it a more positive meaning.

    I can't believe all of the whining about Julie Bowen. Julie seems a hell of a lot cooler than Sofia. Julie is the type of girl that you could hang out with and have a beer some laughs. Sofia would sit there and look bored for a minute, then TELL you to go get her another drink. Sofia has big tits and a nice ass, so nobody on this thread cares that she treats her own co-workers like the hired help. If you're not offended that somebody that you worked with day in and day out couldn't remember your name, you're an idiot doormat that deserves zero respect. Bottom line: if you rode with Sofia in her car, you'd have to sit in the back seat because her ego rides shotgun.

    Julie is pretty good looking, you're talking straight out of your ass. If you were working a long-time project with somebody all day everyday and they wouldn't even bother to remember you're name and then talk about you like you're the hired help, you're telling me that you wouldn't have a problem with that? I've got land in Wyoming I want to sell you.

    Yeah, anything with fake tits and an "exotic" accent floats your boat. That's impressive. Funny thing is, Sofia wouldn't give you the time of day. Her regard of her co-workers is proof of that. If it wasn't for her good looks, she'd be cleaning my hotel room and stealing the change out of my suitcase pockets.

    What a SPECTACULARLY lame, ignorant, bigoted comment. Congratulations. Take a look through Sofia's galleries before saying her breasts are fake. Also, she was three years in a college of dentistry before being discovered on a beach. Not that I expect to be able to reason with a bigoted troll.

    I read these comments before viewing the clips and from what everyone said I was expecting totally different interviews. I don't think these two women are in any sort of fight and they seem to like one another fine. You would never poke gentle fun of someone you hated the way Julie did Sofia. If Julie Bowen was really mad about Sofia calling her the wrong last name she would have stipulated to the Chelsea Lately staff that it not be brought up. Both women are funny and both interviews were great. Stop trying to stir up non-existent drama!

    Nobody hollers when a bunch of black actors/rappers get together and talk about 'white bitches'.

    thank you!!!! chols are of mexican decent !!!, just because you are going on Chelsy show which caters to the white illiteracy to Latin cultures does not give her a stage to be a racist.

    is it not obvious when a "white" person feels jealousy for a Latin American celebrities. I guess if i loved miley cyrus that would be more acceptable for you???, also a factoid for your consideration they are not fake, its just natural that latin women do have bigger assets with out the requirements of plastic surgery. sorry blond and plastic just wont do it anymore.

    Nope, Julie went over-the-top racist. Her "repartee" with the Chuy guy was just foul. So much so that when I then watched the Sofia interview here I cheered out loud when Chelsea misspoke the word "Wednesday" at the end—followed by Sofia's well-timed come-back. Say what you will about SV, she's got great comic timing.

    I suppose there were no Hispanic guests at this restaurant. What a bigot. Why would you say that all the dishwashers came out to see her? Either this woman is brainless or racist. Disgusting.

    Don't tell Chris Rock or any other black comedian, they're told since birth that it's not possible to be racist if you're non-white.

    That only speaks volumes of what kind of person you are. Good people and bad people are everywhere here and all over the world. You see only what you allow yourself to see. I just think is great coming from another country and do good things...good for her she is defending herself and not taking insults from anyone .....
