SAG Nominee Sofia Vergara: I'll Be "Upset" if Betty White Beats Me!

The race is on for this year's Outstanding Actress in a TV Comedy SAG Award!

If you ask Modern Family's Sofia Vergara, her biggest competition in the category isn't her costar, Julie Bowen, but rather 90-year-old Hot in Cleveland star Betty White!

Deciding to share in the joy if Bowen wins, Vergara, 39, told E!'s Giuliana Rancic before Sunday's show that she'd be irked if former Golden Girl White took the trophy home.

"Julie's nominated, I'm nominated, so we're going to have a great time. If she wins, it's like I win, and I hope that if I win, it's like she wins. And if Betty White wins, we'll get upset," she jokingly told Rancic with a laugh.

White took home her very first Screen Actors Guild award in 2011 at age 89.

Win or lose, Vergara -- who will also face off against Edie Falco and Tina Fey -- came to the Pacific Design Center’s SilverScreen Theater in West Hollywood ready to party.

"For me, these events are a big Modern Family party," she told Rancic.
