Kate Winslet Wins First Emmy; Sofia Vergara Transvestite Jokes

Update-Kate Winslet won her first Emmy! Now she can add it to the shelf with her Oscar and Globe Globe! Kate was stunning in a red Elie Saab gown that accentuated the actress’ curvaceous figure at the 2011 Emmy Awards in Los Angeles at the Nokia Theater. Kate was one of many starlets who opted for red and for Kate it brought good tidings. Winslet took home the trophy for Outstanding Lead Actress for her role in the miniseries Mildred Pierce.

Kate said in her acceptance speech,

“Mildred Pierce was capable of great acts of love as a mother. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what you do with your life, you will never stop needing your mum. And I will never stop needing mine, so thanks mum.”

Modern Family actress Sofia Vergara who also looked stunning on the red carpet joked recently about looking like a transvestite from far away…..???

She tells The Advocate in response to her role in Grilled,

“I look like a transsexual anyway,” she responded when asked if it was a difficult role to play. “I’m a woman, but I’m super-exaggerated with my boobs, my ass, my makeup, and my accent. When I get ready for an event, I always look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘I look like a transvestite!’ I love it.”

Sofia added to Billy Bush of Access Hollywood,

“I kind of look a little bit [that wayl].”

“From far away you don’t know, ‘Is that a?’” she said with a laugh.

Sofia Vergara certainly knows her strong points in acting – comedy! Catch some pictures below of Kate and Sofia.
