Sofia Vergara Surprises Fans at Omer Adam's Sold-Out Madison Square Garden Concert

Colombian-American superstar Sofia Vergara made a star-studded appearance at Israeli pop sensation Omer Adam's triumphant Madison Square Garden show on Sunday night, blending Hollywood glamour with the vibrant energy of one of Israel's biggest musical exports.

The Modern Family alum, known for her roles in Griselda and America's Got Talent, was spotted mingling among the 20,000-strong crowd before heading backstage, where she posed for photos with Adam and celebrity jeweler Lorraine Schwartz, capturing the electric post-show vibe.

Vergara, 53, shared glimpses of the evening on her Instagram Stories, posting clips of Adam's high-energy performance of hits like "Mami Zeh Nigmar" and "B'Sof HaKol Cholef," alongside selfies with fans waving Israeli flags.

Her attendance added an international flair to the event, which doubled as a poignant nod to Israel's hostages and soldiers amid the recent U.S.-brokered Gaza ceasefire. Adam dedicated the opener to freed captive Matan Angrest, projecting a virtual duet of the singer belting out "Mami Zeh Nigmar" from his hospital bed in Israel, drawing emotional cheers from the audience.

The concert, Adam's first at MSG and a milestone after years of building a U.S. fanbase through tours in Los Angeles and Miami, sold out in hours, with tickets reselling for up to $1,200.

Announced in September, the October 19 show featured a two-hour set blending Mizrahi pop, Hebrew anthems, and English covers, with surprise guests like singer Odeya and visuals honoring IDF heroes.

Attendees, including a mix of Israeli expats, Jewish New Yorkers, and global fans, raved about the "healing energy," especially poignant given the ceasefire's strains, including recent Hamas ambushes killing two soldiers.

Vergara, a longtime supporter of Jewish causes through her work with the American Jewish Committee, has ties to Israel via friends in the entertainment industry and past visits, including a 2019 Tel Aviv trip where she praised the city's vibrancy.

Her presence at the concert aligns with a wave of celebrity solidarity, following posts from Gal Gadot and Noa Tishby amplifying Adam's tribute to Angrest, who credited the singer's music for sustaining him during 738 days in captivity.

Social media buzzed with clips of Vergara dancing to "Ulay," her caption reading: "Incredible night with incredible music! #OmerAdam #MSG."
