“I’m so happy to join my new family on AGT,'” Vergara said when NBC announced her role as judge. “This is a new and exciting next chapter for me and I’m extremely proud to be the first Latin judge on the show. I can’t wait to watch all the talent and have fun with all you guys!”
“I’m so excited to be back at AGT with Simon, Howie and Terry,” Klum added. “The fact that Sofia Vergara is joining us is the icing on an already delicious cake.”
“Sofia’s infectious energy and sharp wit will blend perfectly with returning favorites Heidi, Simon, Howie, and Terry,” Meredith Ahr, President, Alternative & Reality Group, NBC Entertainment said. “As both a respected actress and successful entrepreneur, she embodies the American dream that is synonymous with AGT‘s transformative stage.”
