The Modern Family star, who was set to present at the Emmys on Sunday night, shared on Instagram how she had to cancel last minute due to an allergic reaction in her eye.

Make us preferred on Google

Almost everyone has a favorite television show they like to turn on at the end of a rough day or binge-watch for a bit of nostalgia, and most of us pretty frequently check out new shows to see if we can spot a favorite.

Needless to say, the Emmys award show is a huge deal every year, honoring all of the people involved in the projects that are currently gracing the small screen, and basically anyone who's anyone will attend.


This included Modern Family's Sofía Vergara, who was expected to make an appearance and present the award for Best Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie.

However, when the big event came, Vergara was not in attendance, and Hunting Wives' Malin Akerman and Brittany Snow had to step in to present the award, this year to Stephen Graham for his part in Adolescence.

Vergara soon after posted on Instagram why she missed the ceremony, saying that she had the "craziest" and most sudden allergic reaction in her left eye that could not wait for treatment.

The actress posted two very short videos of her being treated, as well as a selfie featuring her irritated eye, and it's clear why she chose the emergency room over the Emmys.

Vergara wrote on the post:

"Didn't make it to the Emmys but made it to the ER."
"Sorry I had to cancel! Craziest eye allergie [sic] right before getting in the car!"

Fans and fellow stars were supportive of Vergara and sent her well-wishes.

Vergara hasn't posted an update about how effective the treatment has been, and we hope she's resting comfortably at home.

We have no doubt that we'll see the Modern Family star at the next big event, making up for the time missed and the opportunity to present an award to a fellow star.

Video Of Guy Turning Off Mall Escalator And Blocking People From Getting Off Has Viewers Sounding Off

We can all agree that some social media trends are fun and harmless, but most of them are pretty ridiculous and either inconvenient or hurt people.

There have been a few escalator trends over the years, mostly one person confusing someone else by touching their arm, passing them a note, or even flirting with them.

Mormon Church Accidentally Spotlights Gay Mormon Fashion Designer—And People Can't Get Enough

A Mormon church tried to stay hip and garner new followers by promoting a fashion line, only to prove to all of us that we're really not as different as the prejudiced people among us would like us to believe.

Let's unpack this: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has an Instagram account over at @churchofjesuschrist. They regularly promote members of their community, demonstrating what they do, how they give back to their community, and how their religious testimony ties into their mission.

David Brouillette, the ICE agent who fatally shot Joan Durán Guerrero four times during an attempted traffic stop in Biddeford, Maine, earlier this month, has sparked outrage after unearthed audio revealed he once left a voicemail for his ex-wife threatening to slit her and her female family members' throats.

In an interview with NPR, Ashley Brouillette shared a profanity-laced voicemail her ex-husband left on Nov. 28, 2025, shortly after she filed for a restraining order against him. The recording, obtained by NPR, captures him speaking with slurred speech before ending with a threat that she and the women in her family should have their throats cut.

Lauren Boebert Dragged After Making Bonkers Claim About Moon Landing Before Correcting Herself

Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert was widely mocked after she told a MeidasTouch reporter that she believes the moon landing was done in an "Amazon warehouse" before quickly correcting her own mistake.

July 20 marked 57 years since the Apollo 11 mission astronauts landed on the Earth's moon. Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax.
