LADY GAGA WANTS TO GUEST ON ‘MODERN FAMILY
Multi-tasker Lady Gaga wants a guest spot on TV’s half-hour comedy ‘Modern Family,’ which stars Sofia Vergara. Gaga is reportedly a huge fan of the series, but actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who stars on the hit show, said that he fears it would be nearly impossible to incorporate a superstar of Gaga’s magnitude into the script in seamless fashion.
On his April 6 appearance on ‘Live With Regis and Kelly,’ Ferguson revealed that Gaga “reached out and she wanted to do something with the show but [adds], how do you incorporate Lady Gaga into ‘Modern Family?’”

THE DUNPHYS ARE A MODERN FAMILY WITH MILK MUSTACHES
TV’s Funniest Family Encourages Parents to Help Build Strong Families by “Pourenting.”
The Dunphys may be America’s funniest “Modern Family,” but Claire and Phil take their role as parents very seriously. The comedic couple knows the importance of pouring one more serving of milk a day. Their goal is to build a strong modern family of their own and help fill the nation’s nutrient gap. That’s why Claire, Phil and family are the newest stars in their own Milk Mustache ad.
As mom to Haley, Alex and Luke, Claire wants to remind moms that they are role models for their families’ food choices, and encourage them to set a positive example by pouring one more glass of lowfat milk for herself, as well as for each member of her family every day. Pouring everyone one more serving of milk when the family is together is a simple way to ensure no one misses out on milk’s nine essential nutrients.
The ad copy reads, “Peerenting. Acting like a parent but talking like a peer might be Phil’s philosophy, but when it comes to helping my kids get out of the nutrient gap, I need to be the grown up. So I pour one more serving of milk a day. It’s something Phil likes to call ’pourenting’.”

Scoop on Modern Family
ABC’s Modern Family is ending its second season by adding a new series regular. The name of this pretty young new character: Bridgette. Who is she, you ask? “We’re getting a French bulldog for me to hang out with,” reports Rico Rodriguez (Manny). “She’ll probably be in the last three episodes of the season and then in multiple episodes next year. She’s a very good listener and has fit in very well.” We’ll have to see if Bridgette can deliver the same bark Ed O’Neill‘s previous canine co-star, Buck, brought to Married… With Children.
