Vergara banked $41.5 million before taxes and fees
Sofia Vergara tops the list of highest-paid television actresses for the sixth year in a row, according to Forbes.
“Vergara banked $41.5 million before taxes and fees in the 12 months to June 1”. This thanks to lucrative licensing deals, endorsement deals and a host of acting roles.
She also has her talent management agency and speaking engagements.
“Our endorsement department is a well-oiled machine,” Luis Balaguer, Vergara’s manager and business partner for over 20 years, told Forbes. “Even now, our attention is on the people watching Modern Family and how to appeal to them outside of the show, too.”
Also, Paul Verna, eMarketer’s chief video analyst, told Forbes: “It used to be that films are the prestigious ones and that television was more the junk food, but that’s not true at all anymore.They are definitely on equal footing.”
