Colombian beauty Sofía Vergara is playing the role of corrupt cell block matron Mama Morton in the Broadway musical "Chicago".
The "Dirty Sexy Money," and "Madea Goes to Jail" star was originally offered the role of Roxie Hart, but she turned it down because she didnt have the time to rehearse.
And Sofia will be starting work on a new ABC pilot "An American Family" this month.
She will play a 30-year-old woman married to a 60-year-old man played by Ed O'Neill (Married With Children's Al Bundy).
