Modern Family Shoots On Location! EXCLUSIVE Behind The Scenes Photos/Video

If you ever happen to be in Los Angeles, make sure you visit The Grove, because, you never know who you can run into.

Take today for example. The entire cast of ABC’s hit comedy, Modern Family, completely took over parts of the popular shopping center to shoot several scenes for an upcoming episode.  

The episode was surprisingly being directed by Adam Shankman, best known as choreographer and judge on So You Think You Can Dance, but who has also worked on such films as Hairspray, Deuce Bigalow and Catch Me If You Can.


Despite the fact that the cast and crew had worked all day, they were all amazingly sweet, extremely interactive with the crowd gathered to watch them and even took the time to talk with the fans and even take some pics! I heart this show.


Here are some pics of the cast:

This is one scene they shot which required the cooperation of the twins who play Baby Lily. Both twins were crying and shooting had to stop until one of the twins could be consoled long enough to shoot the scene. WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW AS IT SHOWS THE SCENE WHEN MITCH RUNS INTO HIS EX!!  It’s no other than, Mary Lynn Rajskub – She played Chloe on 24 

In this scene, Jesse Tyler Ferguson sees something that obviously shocks him, but we have no idea what it could be….guess we all need to tune into Modern Family, Wednesdays, to find out!

Sofia Vergara Speaks Up About Her Body & Hair

Sofia Vergara of ABC’s hit Modern Family has a body most women would kill to have. But it’s only recently that Sofia herself has come to love her natural beauty and curves.

Sofia graces the cover of the latest Self magazine and tells it all in an interview in the same issue:  


What was it like being a fully-blossomed teenager:
“I wanted surgery. I told my mom: As soon as I’m older, please take these boobs away. My mom would say: ‘Sofia, shut up. When you’re 18, it will be different.’ I was like, why would I want these huge tits?”

How have her feelings about her body changed as she grew into a successful actress in Hollywood:
“I’m a 34 DD. It’s hard to dress. No matter what I wear, I look like a stripper. But I’m grateful I have them, and honestly, they’ve helped me a lot in my career, and I’ve always felt sexy.”


On being a fake brunette:
“I’m a natural blonde, but when I started acting, I would go to auditions, and they didn’t know where to put me because I was voluptuous and had the accent – but I had blonde hair. The moment I dyed my hair dark, it was, ‘Oh, she’s the hot Latin girl.’ I loved it … Being brunette toned me down a bit. For every 100 roles that come out for another actress, there are two that fit somebody like me.  I mean, I cannot play a scientist. I know who I am. I know how I look. I know how I sound. I’m not going to tell my agent, ‘Book me for Schindler’s List 2.’”
