You're the top! Sofia Vergara and Kaley Cuoco step out on opposite coasts... after being crowned first and second highest-paid TV actresses
Sofia Vergara beamed when she was spotted out in New York City on Tuesday in a lacy white off-the-shoulder top.
The same day, Kaley Cuoco stepped out in Los Angeles, wearing a Moschino T-shirt and a casual pair of slippers.
They both have plenty to celebrate, considering Forbes announced that day that Sofia, 46, is the highest-paid TV actress on Earth, with Kaley, 31, at second place.

When Sofia was seen out in New York on Tuesday, she was heading to the Ed Sullivan Theater on Broadway be interviewed on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
She showed off her spectacular legs in a pair of skintight torn jeans, balancing on a pair of black open-toed platform heels.
Her hair tumbling freely over her shoulders, she carried along a sleek black handbag as she crossed the pavement toward her late-night gig.

Meanwhile, Kaley looked headed for a much more casual destination in Los Angeles, wearing a pink and black pair of workout shorts.
Chic sunglasses sat on her face, and she'd wound her blonde hair into a ponytail.
Sofia - best known for her role as Gloria Pritchett on Modern Family - landed at the top of Forbes magazine's annual ranking for the sixth year running after raking in an incredible $41.5 million in the 12 months since June 1, 2016.

In bagging the top spots, Sofia and Kaley beat off stiff competition from the likes of fellow queens of the small screen Mindy Kaling and Ellen Pompeo.
Although it's the role that catapulted her to international fame, Sofia's work in the hugely-popular Modern Family only makes up one-quarter of her income.
The rest of the Colombian-born beauty's millions have come from various endorsement and licensing deals.
The in-demand actress has deals with Cover Girl, Head & Shoulders, K-Mart and Pepsi.

This type of work is what put Sofia ahead of Kaley, whose salary for The Big Bang Theory - $1 million an episode - is over double what Sofia makes from Modern Family.
Kaley's total earnings since last June 1 came in at $26 million, according to Forbes.
She's been on The Big Bang Theory since its 2007 premiere, and that show rang in its 11th season premiere this Monday evening.
For her part, Sofia has starred on Modern Family since it premiered in 2009 and the cast has just signed on for two more seasons.

It's a hit! Sofia is best known for her role as Gloria Pritchett on Modern Family, which she has starred in since it premiered eight years ago in 2009
According to Sofia's manager, the actress now focuses on licensing deals, rather than straight endorsements.
She produces three perfumes in partnership with Avon, a line of furniture at Rooms To Go and a coffee machine she helped design with SharkNinja.
'Our endorsement department is a well-oiled machine,' Luis Balaguer, Vergara's manager and business partner for over 20 years, told Forbes. 'Even now, our attention is on the people watching Modern Family and how to appeal to them outside of the show, too.'
Big pay day: Coming in second is Kaley Cuoco, who made $26 million over the past year, mostly from her hugely successful comedy The Big Bang Theory
Equal footing: The actress makes $1 million per episode to appear on the show alongside Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, Simon Helberg and Kunal Nayyar
Still making a lot! The Mindy Project's Mindy Kaling and Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo tied for third with $13 million

Forbes compiles its annual celebrity earnings lists from box office and Nielsen data, as well as from interviews with industry insiders.
Combined, the world's 10 highest-paid TV actresses made $156.5 million between June 1, 2016, and June 1, 2017.
'It used to be that films are the prestigious ones and that television was more the junk food, but that's not true at all anymore. They are definitely on equal footing,' Paul Verna, eMarketer's chief video analyst, told Forbes.
Longterm show! Law and Order: Special Victims Unit actress Mariska Hargitay made $12.5 million, coming in fifth place
Big bucks: Vergara's Modern Family cast-mate Julie Bowen, who makes the same as Sofia and their male cast mates per episode, came in at number six with $12 million ($12 million) is the sixth highest-paid
