Sofia Vergara And Ellen Degeneres Shoot CoverGirl Commercial (VIDEO)

First Posted: 11/28/11 03:31 PM ET Updated: 11/29/11 07:33 AM ET

Who knew that Ellen Degeneres and Sofia Vergara were such a dynamic duo? They played off each other very well and somehow managed to keep a straight face while making fun of each other behind the scenes at the CoverGirl shoot.

"I'm dreading this, she is going to be a nightmare," Ellen says, then tries to imitate Sofia's accent, "that thick accent, 'and trying to talk, like she talks like this all the time, man!"

"I don't know, I don't understand English, I'm so sick of that routine," Ellen jokingly says.

But Sofia knows just how to play it as she teaches Ellen a little Spanish. Ellen repeats after Sofia, "Mi nombre... es Ellen. Yo hablo... español... muy feo." Meaning, "My name is Ellen. I speak Spanish very ugly," followed by Sofia's famous sinister smile.

"But do you see how hard it is to act in another language? Now you know what I do every day, it's exhausting," says Sofia to Ellen.

Playful jabs, of course, all in good fun.

The commercial will start airing in January 2012.

I have never had a problem with Any of the Covergirl models until today. I think the behavior of Sofia Vergara around the HBO Emmy awards is such an unfitting image for a CoverGirl Model. I saw the picture that SHE tweeted of the broken zipper in her dress with her behind hanging out and thong showing. I think this is so inappropriate. I have never once in my life contacted a company to voice an opinion,but I really think CoverGirl should reconsider Sofia Vergara representing the company. Ive used only CG makeup since 1979 and love it, and so do my daughters.

I don't care much for the cover girl commercial when Ellen say to Sofia " no one can understand you" because of her accent.

That would be a hilarious comedy team in a movie.

Seems that Ellen got a Latino toy.

Ellen DeGeneres is a hypocrite, claiming to be a animal rights activist and lecturing everyone else on her veganism while shilling for a cosmetics company that tests on animals.

absolutely! i find it hard to believe that a contract has the power to make her act like this.she is also cashing in on meat based dog food with her company Halo..it's not like she needs to as the market is already flooded with quality meat based dog food and many dogs do well on vegan diets.i do not get this woman.she also used to do ads for american express,not sure if she still does but she wasn't doing anyone a favor by promoting credit cards.

Agreed!

Wait oops we older women aren't supposed to like the pretty young ones! We're supposed to be riddled with jealousy!

Sorry boys. I totally admire these two women.

@ independentgadfly what a stupid comment

The only reason I read this article, is because I thought the headline was Sophia and Ellen get off..not goof off. I am so disappointed.
