Sofia Vergara 'SNL' Monologue: I Was 'Welcomed To The U.S With Pulled Down Pants' [VIDEO]

Sofia Vergara left quite an impression on the stage of Saturday Night Live as she delivered her humorous monologue in a tight black strapless mini-dress Saturday.

The Modern Family star hosted the show for the first time and based her introduction on her Colombian roots.

I never dreamed I would be here in New York City, she said. I always heard that immigrants had a hard life when they came to America, but when I showed up here everyone was so nice. The men brought me drinks; they offered me a place to sleep.

This country welcomed me with open arms and pulled down pants, she said before the audience broke down in laughter.

The actress also made a reference to her Modern Family co-star Ed O'Neill. Growing up in Colombia, it was every girl's dream to grow up and marry Al Bundy, she said about her on-screen husband.

Playing on her Colombian accent, Vergara said that she could make anything sound sexy -- Gonorrhea, Rick Santorum, New Jersey.

Forgive me if you cannot understand what I say and I will forgive you for staring at my chest all night, she concluded before calling the band One Direction to the stage.
