Sofía Vergara Walks Off ‘America’s Got Talent’ Stage After Howie Mandel Jokes About Her Single Status Again

Another joke was made about the 51-year-old actress being single, and she wasn’t having it.

Sofía Vergara didn’t exactly enjoy being in the hot seat… or the “tot seat” rather. On Wednesday’s episode of America’s Got Talent, the 51-year-old judge was asked to take a lie detector test by fellow judge Simon Cowell while sitting on a throne made of tater tots in honor of the competition show’s sponsor, Sonic.

The actress was accused of lying during the test multiple times, especially when asked by fellow judge Heidi Klum if Cowell was like a sweet puppy. She did claim to enjoy working on America’s Got Talent more than Modern Family, which the lie detector proved to be true.

But when judge Howie Mandel asked if there was anyone in the audience the newly single Vergara was “interested in,” Vergara jokingly replied, “That’s it!” She then took the arm cuff off and walked back to her seat at the judges’ table.

Mandel claimed that Vergara was good with the joke. “She came over and she thought it was funny. She [said it was] good [and said] how much she wants that,” Mandel said.

As ET previously reported, Manganiello filed for divorce in July after seven years of marriage.

Last month, Vergara and Manganiello gave a joint statement to Page Six,
