Sofia Vergara to host April 7 episode of ‘SNL’ with musical guest One Direction

Sofia Vergara is set to host the April 7 edition of “Saturday Night Live”, it was revealed on last night’s Jonah Hill-fronted episode. The “Modern Family” actress will take the stage along with musical guest One Direction, a British boy band whose sugary debut single “What Makes You Beautiful” is currently gaining a horrifying level of traction with U.S. tweens. The group – made up of fresh-faced five-some Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson – came in third place on “The X-Factor” U.K.’s seventh season.

One Direction’s freshman album “Up All Night” launches an attack on U.S. shores this Tuesday. As for Vergara, in addition to “Modern Family” she also has a role in the Farrelly Brothers’ upcoming “Three Stooges” adaptation…which, you know, doesn’t look great.
