She has become the highest paid person on TV after taking home $39.6 million last year, $11 million clear of cashed-up TV actor, Ashton Kutcher.

The Modern Family star pocketed the impressive sum between June 2013 and June 2014, give the actress top spot on Forbes list for the third consecutive year.

Her big payday was largely due to her extensive endorsement deals and business interests outside of her $348,000-an-episode day job.

Her first notable acting job in English was in the 2003 film Chasing Papi. Subsequently, she appeared in other films, including Four Brothers (2005) and two Tyler Perry films – Meet the Browns (2008) and Madea Goes to Jail (2009), receiving an ALMA Award nomination for the latter. Vergara’s success on television has earned her roles in recent films The Smurfs (2011), New Year’s Eve(2011), Happy Feet Two (2011), The Three Stooges (2012), Escape From Planet Earth (2013), and Machete Kills (2013).

New Year’s Eve: The World Welcomes 2012 (PICTURES)

People around the world are celebrating the start of the New Year, bidding farewell to 2011 and welcoming the start of 2012.

In Australia, more than a million people crowded along the shores of Sydney’s harbor, to watch a midnight fireworks extravaganza over Harbour Bridge.

Sydney’s firework display is often one of the world’s most iconic celebrations. This years display was created to remind Australians that although 2011 has been tough there are better times ahead, with some of the fireworks designed to explode in the shape of a cloud, because “every cloud has a sliver lining”.

An hour earlier in New Zealand, thousands of Kiwis took to the streets of Auckland to watch the firework display centered around the city’s Sky Tower.

However the capital Wellington was was hit by torrential rain and thunderstorms which forced the cancellation of firework displays.

The first country to welcome 2012 was the Pacific island of Samoa. Revelers on the island nation cheered with extra excitement this year as, having changed their time zone, they became the first rather than the last to great the New Year.

The move is aimed at strengthening trade ties with Australia, New Zealand and Asia.

When the clock stuck midnight on 29 December, Samoa skipped 30 December and moved straight to New Years Eve, 31 December.
