Her 42nd birthday on July 10 could have been a little lonely for Sofia Vergara since she shed her longtime boyfriend/fiancée Nick Loeb in May. But she has bounced back from the split in a BIG way! She never realized that 6’5” True Blood star Joe Manganiello, 37, had been waiting in the wings for her to become available. Joe took her out for lunch in New Orleans where she was filming and apparently that was just the beginning. Sofia celebrated her birthday at Nobu in Malibu with friends and Joe – and they look VERY chummy. Maybe she posted this photo as a message to Nick….

SOFIA VERGARA HAS THE LAST LAUGH WITH HOLLYWOOD’S HOTTEST BACHELOR

Let’s face it, Sofia Vergara wasted four years with her off and on fiancée, Nick Loeb (above) – the playboy from a wealthy family who couldn’t seem to settle down. Even when The Enquirer caught Nick partying with call girls at drugged up hotel parties, Sofia forgave him for some reason. She finally realized their romance was going nowhere and they broke up in May. 6’5″ True Blood star Joe Manganiello, 37, has had a crush on Sofia for ages and he LEAPED at the opportunity and asked Sofia out. On Sunday they were seen having brunch together in New Orleans, where she’s filming. What better way to forget that loser Nick!

KATHIE LEE AND HODA GOT THE SCOOP ON JOE MANGANIELLO

Kathie Lee and Hoda grilled studly Joe Manganiello on the Today show this morning and pulled out some interesting information about the “True Blood “ star. He said he gained 20 pounds of muscle before costarring with Arnold Schwarzenegger in their new action movie “Sabotage.” He admitted that he had no tattoos and no girlfriend. Kathie Lee made a joke about him getting waxed before he takes his shirt off and Joe said he didn’t have to. He said he was practically hairless from the chin down and considering that he’s half Armenian and half Sicilian, it was highly unusual. The girls were impressed.

JOE MANGANIELLO’S FIRST CELEBRITY CRUSH

True Blood stud Joe Mangeniello was asked by Elle magazine who his first celebrity crush was, and he answered this:

“Princess Leia from Star Wars. I actually met Carrie Fisher a couple of years ago. When I told her that she was my first crush, she insisted that we get married and have a reality show about it. I’m lucky to have made it out of that weekend without getting married.”

We LOVE this and can just IMAGINE Carrie’s excitement and reaction!

MAGIC MIKE MIGHT ACTUALLY BE A DECENT MOVIE

This movie looks like fun. And the fact that it’s directed by the perfectly respectable Steven Soderbergh gives it even more potential. It’s not exactly painful to imagine Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and Joe Manganiello as male strippers. We always got a kick out of the original Chippendales dancers (from a safe distance) so Magic Mike might be better than it sounds.

JOE MANGANIELLO WILL DO, IF ROB PATTINSON’S NOT AROUND

We were watching the VMA’s on TV last night while working at the computer when suddenly – whoa- this drop dead gorgeous slightly rough looking guy appeared onscreen and we couldn’t figure out where he came from. Definitely not Jersey Shore. A little research revealed he is Joe Manganiello from True Blood, a show we’ve never seen because we have no interest in Vampires. Has Joe always looked like this? Why didn’t we notice him before? It WAS a nice surprise – and consoling, since Robert Pattinson did NOT grace the VMA’s this year.
