One minute she's a curvy Colombian strutting her stuff as Covergirl's new spokeswoman and Modern Family's red-hot TV mama...and the next she's dressing up as the one of the most beloved comediennes of the 20th century, Lucille Ball.

While there's no ugly-duckling transformation here, Sofia Vergara nails Ball's iconic I Love Lucy look to a T.

The picture posted on Sofia's WhoSay page features her in a red wig with tight curls, the late great's signature red lips and arched eyebrows, and a suitably wacky expression. 

Although there's no explanation as to why the actress is decked out as comedy legend, we hope it has something to do with Modern Family. Nothing would be cuter than Gloria Pritchett in the persona of accident-prone but lovable Lucy Ricardo, with the addition of a thick accent.
