Sophia, 26, wore a floor length satin gown with a long side slit and cinched at the waist with a black leather belt. She accessorized with a sparkling cream color clutch, black Jimmy Choo peep toe heels, diamond shaped Anthony Nak gold earrings and wavy gold bangle bracelet on her left arm. Her brown colored hair swept up and tied in a bun looked elegant but seemed to add age to her face.

Sophia was rumored to have dated Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Tony Romo in late 2007 when they were seen together in Texas. In December 2007 she was reported to be dating James Lafferty but her rep denied the report. Recent photos of Lafferty and Bush together at LAX airport in Los Angeles have renewed past speculations.

In February 2008, Sophia made several appearances in Texas in support of the Barack Obama campaign and was later joined in Dallas, Fort Worth, and Waco by fellow actor Adam Rodriguez.

Sophia will be next seen in The Narrow, an independent film starring Kevin Zegers, Vincent D'Onofrio, Eddie Cahill and Monica Keena.
