Howie Mandel is looking to get his “America’s Got Talent” cohost Sofia Vergara hooked up.
“I think she’s great for everyone,” Mandel told PEOPLE. “I love Sofia Vergara. I finder her incredibly, first, in no particular order, beautiful, smart, funny.”
Mandel feels Vergara “deserves to be with somebody ASAP.”
The former “Modern Family” actress split from husband Joe Manganiello in July. They were married for seven years.
Mandel says Vergara doesn’t mind his active approach to getting her coupled up.
“I scream it from the rooftops,” he said. “Sometimes people think that’s inappropriate, other people, not Sofia. She doesn’t get mad at me.”
Mandel has gone so far as to tell a contestant on “America’s Got Talent” that Vergara was “in the market right now.”
She cheered in response.
