Sofia Vergara dons slinky black dress as she eats ribs at an Arkansas Walmart after arriving in a pink jeep

Sofia Vergara showed up at a Walmart in the hometown of the store, Bentonville, Arkansas. 

The Modern Family star, 52, arrived in a pink Jeep to promote the line of Schwarzkopf hair care that she is a brand ambassador for. 

The Columbian bombshell – who was effortlessly chic during Paris Fashion Week – shared a few fun images from the event, which gave the first 50 people in line an opportunity to meet her, on Instagram. 

‘We r having an amazing day in Bentonville ! Gracias @walmart @eattoma @diosmiocoffee #hispanicheritagemonth,’ she captioned the post.

Sofia wore a black cold-shoulder midi dress with white sneakers and sunglasses as she prepared to meet the lucky attendees.

The Hot Pursuit star was also seen leaning over a buffet of barbecued ribs, corn, mashed potatoes and green beans.

Sofia was photographed biting into a juicy, sauce-covered rib with gusto. 

The trip to Walmart headquarters comes after Sofia’s Modern Family co-star Julie Bowen commented on her longstanding friendship with the Colombian bombshell.

‘We get along like a house on fire,’ Julie told E! News adding that she was ‘blown away’ by the persistent rumors that the two actresses were feuding.

‘We are absolutely, completely different,’ she explained. ‘I like to wear the baggiest, grossest underwear and show them to her, and she’s like, “Please, why are you wearing that?”

‘She used to leave little thong underwear for me in my trailer, and I was like, “What is this? What is this tiny scrap of fabric?” Because she wants me to be more of a woman.’

She added: ‘I love her. She’s confident, she’s funny. I’ll never understand why there’s this scarcity mentality about women. It’s like, if two or more get together they must be either witches in a coven or they hate each other. Guess what? We’re witches.’

Speaking of Modern Family, last month Sofia revealed she wants a reboot of the beloved sitcom and even put forth the idea of a TV movie of the show.

‘I’d die to be on that set,’ the brunette told Variety. ‘It’d be so much fun. A TV movie maybe?’

And the actress has a running joke with her 78-year-old costar Ed O’Neill about it.

‘I always joke with him,’ she said, adding she tells him, “Ed, don’t die. Because if we do the sequel, it will take some time, and you’re the oldest of us. You can’t be dead!”‘

She also recalled playfully telling him after seeing him star as LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling in the series Clipped: ‘You look f***ing old.’

Modern Family ran for 11 seasons, from September 23, 2009, to April 8, 2020.

It revolved around three different families living in Los Angeles, who were connected through patriarch Jay Pritchett (O’Neill) and his two children, Claire (Bowen) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson).
