Sofia Vergara got real about what it's like posing nude in your 40s
She is talented, daring, and totally gorgeous. And we think it’s pretty cool that Sofia Vergara posed nude for the Naked Issue of Women’s Health because she’s further proving that women should be confident in their bodies regardless of their age.
Speaking of age, Vergara is 45. And while we would never have guessed it, it’s incredible to know that she’s not letting the numbers stop her from participating in such a bold and beautiful shoot.
"Here's a woman, 45, being able to show her body," she said to Women's Health. "It's not like before, when it was just young girls who would make the cover of a magazine."
The issue is the first of its kind for Women’s Health, and we think it’s a great idea. Vergara’s interview showed that she appreciates her body for what it is, and what it isn’t. After all, even when you star in one of the biggest sitcoms on the air, you can’t be perfect.
"Even if you want to, at this time in your life, you can't be perfect," she said. "It's not that you hate it, or that you're upset about it, but it is our reality. We're changing. I see it happening to me."
Amen.
Vergara also noted that even though she’s been baring it all a bit more recently, it’s something she wasn’t always so comfortable with.
"I told [my rep], 'I'm going to be 45 years old! Stop putting me in naked things! Let me age with dignity!'" she said.
But of course, the opportunity was just too good to pass up. You can see all of Vergara’s incredible photos in the magazine, which will be hitting newsstands on August 8th.
