Modern Family’s Julie Bowen Celebrates Twins’ 1st Birthday
Actress Julie Bowen had her hands full of children last Friday at The Coop in Studio City, Calif, where she threw a birthday bash for 1-year-old twins Johnny and Gus.
The party was organized to raise money and supplies for Baby2Baby, a charity founded in 2006 by Marnie Owens, Lee Michel and Karis Jagger (Mick Jagger’s daughter) that donates gently used baby items to families in need.
Bowen, 39, has been involved with Baby2Baby since the birth of her oldest son, Oliver, 3.
“Honestly, [the twins] have more than enough stuff and there are so many families in Los Angeles that don’t even have the bare necessities,” the Modern Family star tells UsMagazine.com. “So if I can take two over-privileged kids’ birthdays and use it as an opportunity to get other kids the stuff they need, I’m overjoyed to do that.”

Modern Family’s Hawaiian Vacation
This week’s Modern Family found the whole crew in the island paradise of Hawaii for Jay’s 63rd birthday celebration. While last week’s episode revealed Jay’s hesitations about his entire family infiltrating his relaxing vacation with Gloria, we see now that the one struggling to relax is Jay himself. After being reminded by his brother that their father passed away at this particular birthday milestone, he ditches the cheeseburgers and throws himself into an endless string of physical activities in an attempt to reverse a lifetime of bad choices.

Kobe Bryant’s cameo appearance on ‘Modern Family’ to air on May 19
Lakers guard Kobe Bryant took a simple approach when he made a cameo appearance in ABC’s“Modern Family” following a Lakers home game. Let’s just say he didn’t obsess over the script as much as he does game film.
“I’m winging it. They just told me to be myself,” Bryant said in March. “So I’m just going to be a smart.”
Well, the approach paid off. His appearance made the cut for “Modern Family’s” season finale, which will air May 19 at 9 p.m. Though Lakers forward Pau Gasol also was filmed, his appearance didn’t make the final cut, ABC representative Yani Chang said by e-mail.

Spoilers for MODERN FAMILY
Any scoop on what’s in store for my favorite [MODERN] FAMILY as the season comes to a [tear] end? — Maya
The TV Addict: If this were any other show, we’d tease the fantastic May 19th season ender by revealing that… [cue ominous music]… nothing will ever be the same for America’s funniest family thanks to an unexpected intruder in Mitchell and Cam’s humble abode and a philandering Phil which culminates in a fight between the Dunphey/Pritchett clan that almost teas them apart. But since this isn’t a very special episode of LAW & ORDER, we’ll simply say the intruder is a bird, Phil is just being Phil, and America’s favorite family ends the season exactly how it started, on a high note.

Alohahaha! Modern Family Boss Dishes on Tonight’s Hawaii Episode and Why He’ll Never Do a Spinoff
You’ve been credited in the press with saving the TV comedy genre. Does that bring on a certain amount of pressure?
A little pressure. I did another show with my partner a year or two ago, and they said that one was going to save the sitcom. In full dramatic fashion, we decided to knock the sitcom down a peg first before we saved it. I think we pulled that one off somehow.
Are you planning a Modern Family spinoff, or any other series?
No. I wanna focus on Modern Family right now. I feel so fortunate to be on a show that is somehow working in this day and age that I don’t dare want to jinx it by taking my eye off of it for a minute.

On Tuesday, the producers of “Modern Family” released a statement to the website AfterElton.com regarding the concern over Cam & Mitchell’s lack of affection.
“Cameron and Mitchell are a loving, grounded, committed, and demonstrably affectionate couple and have been from the beginning of the series. It happens that we have an episode in the works that addresses Mitchell’s slight discomfort with public displays of affection. It will air in the fall and until then, as Phil Dunphy would say, everyone please chillax.”
