Sofia Vergara might be one of the funniest and most definitely the sexiest women in Hollywood, but it looks like she's also the smartest, too. Her Modern Family co-star Sarah Hyland recently credited the Latina beauty for being a "great business woman" while also admitting that she looks up to her as well.

In the latest issue of Galore magazine, Hyland says that Vergara is one of her biggest role models, along with pop star Taylor Swift.

She said, "They are both amazing business woman. Let alone beautiful, talented and funny. I don't think people give them enough credit as to how smart they really are. I admire them tremendously."

Hyland also opened up about life on the Modern Family set in the interview, dishing on her favorite prop from the show.

She said, "It's my favorite and least favorite at the same time. The painting Dylan gives Haley for Valentine's Day. It's awful and cheesy but it's so iconic. Definitely something I want to keep."

Meanwhile, there was a rumor last month suggesting that Vergara's boyfriend Joe Manganiello might guest star on the hit ABC comedy as well.

OK! Magazine reported that the Hollywood actress is campaigning to have Manganiello on the show. Vergara plays Gloria on the highly-acclaimed sitcom and so far has been nominated for four Emmy Awards along with several more accolades.

A source tells the site, "Sofia thinks Joe would be a perfect guest star on Modern Family - and the sitcom's writers agree. Casting Joe would bring headlines - and ratings."
