Former ‘Attention Thief’ Heidi Klum Is ‘Overshadowed’ By Sofia Vergara on AGT

SOFIA Vergara’s role as Griselda on Netflix has earned her much recognition in Hollywood.

The AGT reality TV judge’s days are numbered, according to a body language expert, as she was seen “taunting” and “degrading” Heidi Klum on the entertainment show.

Heidi, 51, shared a clip on Instagram on Thursday, where the AGT judges pose on set behind their desks.

Simon Cowell, 64, bowed to the audience, while Sofia Vergara, 52, gave a kiss and wink.

Next up was the German supermodel, who stuck out her tongue. Howie Mandel, 68, was barely visible at the end.

Body language expert Judi James claimed Hot Pursuit actress Sofia was the “showstopper.”

“Sofia’s flirty expression guaranteed made her the showstopper,” she told The US Sun.

“She sat upright at the desk, her arms spread confidently.

“Heidi only had a brief moment in this promo clip.

“Her tongue jab and peace gesture were copied from Miley Cyrus and were not Heidi’s usual attention-grabbing rituals.”

According to James, Sofia is the dominant judge in season 19.

“Sofia has already tried to seize power this season,” she said.

“Heidi is degraded and overshadowed; she doesn’t seem to stand up for her interests or pose for the camera.

“We don’t often see Heidi participate.

“Sometimes she would just sit back and watch.

“Sofia takes center stage in AGT, a series that seems to be about her success in her blossoming acting career.”

The Colombian-American actress joined the AGT panel in 2020 and appeared on season 15.

Sofia had wrapped up her role as Gloria Pritchett on ABC’s hit sitcom Modern Family.

Before that, she occasionally appeared in films, such as Chasing Papi.

Sofia told the LA Times She had difficulty getting acting roles in Hollywood because of her accent.

“I’m always looking for characters because there’s not much I can do with this stupid accent,” she said in January.

“I can’t play a scientist or be in ‘Schindler’s List.’ My acting is quite limited,” she added while promoting Griselda.

Sofia’s recent success with Griselda could lead to speculation about how AGT will retain her.

The series spent three weeks in Netflix’s Global Top 10 list after its release, and by week two, the series had already been viewed more than 20 million times.

Sofia played the ruthless Griselda Blanco, the infamous boss of a drug cartel.

On Wednesday, she received her fifth Emmy nomination for the role.

ROLE CHANGE

James claims that Sofia’s acting success is the reason for her new positioning on AGT.

“Sofia’s recent success with Griselda could lead to speculation about how AGT will retain her,” she said.

“The role of Griselda has brought her a lot of recognition.

“This has finally made her a more serious actress with a greater range.

AGT may have to make the most of Sofia’s boundless acting talent if they want to keep her.

“The role itself was a far cry from the lighthearted roles she had previously had, such as on Modern Family.

“Sofia is currently starring on AGT and has the look of a heavyweight movie star.

“It seems like Sofia has knocked her and AGT down rather than lifted her up.”

Another clip shared on Instagram On Sunday Sofia showed how she pressed the Golden Buzzer.

It was the second time for the star and for Japanese comedian Schumacher.

PULL AWAY

“Sofia beamed with authority as she rang the bell,” James added.

“She has become the main headliner of the show.

“AGT may now have to make full use of Sofia’s boundless acting talent if they want to keep her.”

BEING IN THE CENTER OF THE ATTENTION

According to James, German supermodel Heidi has taken a step back.

“Heidi used to be a seasoned show-stealer and attention seeker,” she said.

“She performed extroverted performances and controlled the panel’s promo clips.

It was Sofia who the camera went to for the reaction shots.

“She was louder and more dramatic in her gestures.

“She’s even been known to sneak into Sofia’s cubicles, as if she’s breaking into a Photo-Me booth.

“Heidi used to lean forward and raise her voice, but now she’s taking a step back.”

The former Victoria’s Secret model began her role as a judge in 2018 during season 8.

Heidi replaced Sharon Osbourne at the time. Mel B became the fourth judge on the show with her.

In 2019, Heidi and Mel B were replaced by Gabrielle Union and Julianne Hough.

Heidi took a hiatus in season 14, but returned for season 15.

Heidi is also the host of Project Runway and has released a music single, Sunglasses, with Tiesto.

“I love a lot of different things than just modeling or being on America’s Got Talent,” she said Billboard.

“I love painting; I’ve always loved designing or coming up with crazy costume ideas for Halloween. I’ve always wanted to be a creative person. And for me, music has always been a part of that,” Heidi added.

SHAKE IT OFF

James noticed that Heidi was skipped in a clip when another act, Forest of Haunts, approached the judges.

“Heidi leaned back at one point,” she said.

“It was like she fully embraced her understated appearance.

“It was Sofia who the camera went to for the reaction shots.

“She was screaming and writhing, but all we saw from Heidi was an expressionless shake of the head.”

Heidi and Sofia also have very different private lives.

Sofia divorced actor Joe Manganiello after nine years of marriage and is the mother of 32-year-old Manolo Gonzalez Vergara.

Heidi is married to Tom Kautlitz.

Sofia is completely focused on her new acting career in the heavyweight division.

She divorced pop star Seal in 2014, with whom she shares Leni (20), Henry (18), Johan (17) and Lou (14).

In a video showing the two women’s vacation plans, the contrast becomes clear when they talk about their favorite summer days.

WAITING UP

“Sofia’s energy seemed lower and less passionate here, with her heavy eyelids,” James added.

“Her recent divorce may have led to her becoming more reserved about her private life.

“She sounded emotionless and her hand showed a dismissive look at the end.

“Sofia is all about her new acting career in the heavyweight division.

“Heidi spoke of her husband with a broad smile, suggesting genuine affection or love.

“Even when she described the armbands in the pool, we saw genuine anticipation to be back home with her family.

“This was very different from Sofia’s cold reaction.”
