Sofía Vergara couldn’t hide her shock after hearing what Kelly Clarkson had to say about her transformation in Griselda, asking the host: ‘Are you crazy?!’

In Netflix’s new bloodcurdling drama, the former Modern Family star is in the titular role, portraying real-life notorious Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco.

While Sofía wasn’t made to look exactly like the real person who inspired the character – an intentional decision – she spent hours in the makeup chair having prosthetics applied, including a fake nose.

During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the host of the programme told the actress how ‘incredible’ her look was in the six-part series.

However, Kelly, 41, then remarked: ‘I feel like they only changed your nose or something.’

‘What?!’ Sofía exclaimed in response, as the host reiterated her point, stating: ‘I don’t know what they did.’

‘Are you crazy?!’ the baffled Griselda star added, as Kelly tried to explain what she had meant by her comment.

‘No I’m saying like whatever they did though, it looks slight, it doesn’t look like… you know what I’m saying? When you look at you, it doesn’t look –.’

But Sofía interjected to stress how many ‘hours’ she spent being transformed, as Kelly insisted that just a ‘slight change’ to her appearance ‘completely changed your being’.

‘It was a wig! Shut up,’ she quipped, as the audience in the studio burst into laughter.

‘It was a wig. It was a lot! They did a lot to me. It was teeth, it was wig, it was nose, it was plastic from here to here.’

As a sped-up video was shown of Sofía having her make-up and wig applied for filming, Kelly outlined how she meant to stress how much of a ‘good job’ the team did, as her appearance as Griselda looked ‘seamless’.

‘You literally look like you could actually just be this person in another movie, you could have two careers,’ she said.

Sofía took heart to Kelly saying that it looked as though there was a different actress in the series playing Griselda, thanks to the brilliant way her appearance was altered.

‘That is exactly what I wanted, that reaction. I love that you thought that it was just a little thing, because that means that it looks natural,’ she replied.

The head of the makeup on Griselda explained that they didn’t want to ‘replicate’ the real-life drug lord, but ‘transition’ the lead star so she didn’t have a ‘sweet and perky look’, they told the Daily Mail.

Griselda has only just dropped on Netflix today, but already fans are amazed by Sofía’s performance as the woman known as the ‘Cocaine Grandmother’.

‘Sofia is amazing in this role!,’ a fan called Lisseth wrote on X, while another going by the handle @natbalda said: ‘trust me when I say this show is INCREDIBLE. @SofiaVergara is sooooo good in it!’

The Kelly Clarkson Show is syndicated in the US. Griselda is available to watch on Netflix.
