Modern Family Stars Then, Now

Listen up, fam!

Sixteen years ago, on Sept. 23, 2009, Modern Family premiered on ABC. And after watching the Dunphy-Pritchett-Tucker crew go through life’s ups and downs for 11 seasons, fans still enjoy keeping up with the cast’s major milestones off-camera.

Earlier this month, for instance, Eric Stonestreet celebrated not just turning 54 but also tying the knot with Lindsay Schweitzer.

“It’s my birthday and guess what I got,” the actor, who played Cam Tucker on the sitcom, wrote on Instagram Sept. 9. “I got married!”

Of course, his onscreen husband Jesse Tyler Ferguson was thrilled about the news.

“Of all the second marriages, this one is my favorite!” the 49-year-old, who portrayed Mitchell Pritchett, commented. “I love you both! I’m so happy for you!!!!”

And their TV daughter is doing big things too—changing her name from Aubrey Anderson-Emmons to Frances Anderson as she grows her career as a musician.

“Frances is actually part of my legal name,” the 18-year-old, who played Lily on Modern Family, explained to E! News last month. “It’s my middle name, and it’s after my mom’s old family friend. I thought Frances, one, it was a bit shorter than Aubrey Anderson-Emmons. I do have a long, hyphenated last name. But I wanted to switch it up, and I wanted people to see a new side of me, and I wanted to create a space specifically just for music.”

bitchy | Prince Harry visited with the Duke of Kent & the Kent family during his UK trip

by jummy84 September 22, 2025
written by jummy84

Just days before Prince Harry traveled to England for a four-day blitz of events, his distant relative passed away. Katherine, the Duchess of Kent, died on September 4. Harry arrived in England on September 8th, but he had exited the UK and Ukraine at least one or two days before the duchess’s funeral on September 16th. Many royalists wondered aloud if Harry would find a way to stay in London for the duchess’s funeral. Alas, he did not, preferring to spend his birthday (the 15th) with his wife and children in California. Still, Harry did something really sweet when he was in town – he stopped by Kensington Palace to visit the Duke of Kent and the Kent family.

The Duke of Sussex has been back home in Montecito for nearly a week, but his visit to the UK is still making headlines. Harry spent four days in the London attending events close to his heart, including the WellChild Awards, where he gave an exclusive interview to HELLO!, and the Diana Award, before travelling to Ukraine on 12 September and then returning to Los Angeles.

Amid his packed schedule, the Duke managed to reunite with his father, King Charles, for the first time in nearly two years – and also made time for another deeply personal visit.

As revealed in this week’s episode of A Right Royal Podcast, a source confirmed to hosts Andrea Caamano and Emily Nash that although Harry missed the funeral of the Duchess of Kent, he travelled privately to Kensington Palace to “personally pay his respects and offer condolences” to the Duke of Kent.

“He has loved catching up with family, friends and colleagues,” a source close to the Duke adds. “His only regret was not being able to stay longer and see more people, but the meetings in Ukraine had been in the diary for a long time and it mattered to him to be there in person to see the Invictus Games Foundation’s growing work and the progress at Superhumans.”

The source added: “The whole trip felt like a real success for everyone involved. His passion for his patronages and the causes he cares about hasn’t dimmed one bit – he’s already buzzing to get back and do more.”

[From Hello]

That’s very sweet. I have no idea if Harry was genuinely close to the Kents, but he did invite them to his 2018 wedding, and that was one of the duchess’s few public appearances in the final decade of her life. Plus, I’m sure Harry saw the Duchess of Kent more like a dear friend to his mother. When you consider the Diana connection, it makes more sense that he wanted to pay his respects and visit with the Kents. I’m sure they understood why he couldn’t make the funeral as well – all things considered, I’m glad Harry wasn’t there. They would have made this poor woman’s funeral all about Harry and his grim, unmoisturized brother.

ABC Affiliates Air Celebrity Family Feud Re-Run Instead of Charlie Kirk Tribute

by jummy84 September 22, 2025
written by jummy84

Sinclair Broadcast Group reversed its decision to air a Charlie Kirk tribute on its affiliate channels during the time slot typically reserved for Jimmy Kimmel Live! Earlier in the week, the broadcaster pulled Kimmel’s late-night show following his comments about Kirk’s assassination and announced plans to run the tribute instead at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT on Friday.

But shortly before airtime, Sinclair issued a statement on social media saying the tribute would be made available on YouTube rather than on television. In its place, its affiliates aired ABC network programming — a re-run of Celebrity Family Feud. No explanation was given for the abrupt programming change.

Family of missing teen found dead in singer D4vd’s car speaks out – National

written by jummy84

The family of a missing 15-year-old girl, whose body was found last week in the trunk of an impounded Tesla registered to singer D4vd, has broken their silence.

The body of Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found “severely decomposed” stuffed inside a bag in the trunk of the Tesla registered in Hempstead, Texas, to D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, earlier this month.

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is currently investigating the incident as a homicide.

This week, a GoFundMe page was created by a person representing Rivas’ family, seeking donations to “lay her body to rest” following the confirmation from the Los Angeles County medical examiner that the body found was Rivas, who had been missing since April of last year.

“As many of you know, Celeste Rivas Hernandez has been identified as the body found last week. She was a beloved daughter, sister, cousin, and friend,” the statement from the Rivas family read. “Her family is heartbroken and devastated by this tragic loss.”

The GoFundMe post has raised more than US$14,000 of its goal of $20,000 from more than 500 donations as of Friday afternoon.

A spokesperson for GoFundMe told the Independent that its trust and safety team was working with the fundraiser’s organizer to ensure the money safely reaches the Rivas family.

The family’s first statement comes after police searched a home in the Los Angeles neighbourhood where Burke’s Tesla was abandoned.

The search is connected to the Tesla and the investigation of the death of Rivas, law enforcement told NBC Los Angeles.

Authorities were seeking several items, including digital devices that would have security recordings or could connect Rivas to the location, according to the outlet.

The LAPD said several pieces of evidence were recovered from the home and will be analyzed. Authorities also said that investigators were following up on leads.

Burke’s Tesla was originally impounded after it had been parked on a Hollywood Hills street for more than 72 hours. A neighbour told CBS News that the Tesla had been abandoned for weeks.

“It just smelled like sewage,” the Hollywood resident told the outlet. “I think the community knew something was wrong and reported the car being abandoned.”

Burke, 20, was on the North American leg of his international tour at the time of the body’s discovery.

“D4vd has been informed about what’s happened. And, although he is still out on tour, he is fully cooperating with the authorities,” a rep for the singer said in a statement.

Burke has since cancelled the remaining dates of his U.S. tour amid the investigation into the body found in the car registered to him.

The remaining dates on the singer’s U.S. tour were “quietly removed” from venue websites on Thursday, according to Variety. Tour dates for the international leg of Burke’s tour currently remain.

Hawaii Film Fest To Open With ‘Rental Family’; Screen ‘No Other Choice’

by jummy84 September 18, 2025
written by jummy84

EXCLUSIVE: This year’s Hawai’i International Film Festival (HIFF) will open with Rental Family, starring Brendan Fraser, and has set Park Chan-wook’s No Other Choice as its Centrepiece Film. 

Fraser stars as a down-and-out American actor adrift in Tokyo in Rental Family, which was filmed in Japan. The film is directed by Japan-born, US-based filmmaker and former actress Hikari, who has also directed episodes of Tokyo Vice and Netflix series Beef. No Other Choice, fresh from critical acclaim at the Venice and Toronto film festivals, has also just screened as the opening film of Busan International Film Festival.

Park is also being honoured with the Vision In Film Award at HIFF, which will also present a Career Achievement Award to New Zealand actress Melanie Lynksey (Pike River) and Maverick Award to Japanese director and action choreographer Kenji Tanigaki (The Furious). Japanese comedian Yuriyan Retriever will receive the festival’s New Vanguard Award. 

In addition, the creative team behind Apple TV+ series Chief Of War – inspired by Native Hawaiian history and co-created by Jason Momoa and Thomas Pa‘a Sibbett – will be presented with a Trailblazer Award. The team also includes producer Brian Keaulana and many members of the Kānaka Maoli and Pacific Islander community. 

HIFF is also launching its first ever industry conference in Honolulu, which will bring together Hawai’i’s creative community with visiting filmmakers and film agencies from across the Asia Pacific Rim. 

Keynote speakers set to attend HIFILM Industry Conference (October 24–26) include former Amazon Original Movies head of physical production Glenn Gainor, who has launched new outfit Hollywood Ventures; and Oscar-winning documentary director Ben Proudfoot (The Queen Of Basketball), who recently directed The Eyes Of Ghana, produced by the Obamas. The conference will also present a deep dive into the writing and production of Chief Of War.

“This new platform brings together a cross-section of professionals from across the industry – Sundance alums, Academy Award winners, Hollywood execs, international co-production experts, and cultural workers to examine how production impacts real communities, both above and below the line,” said HIFF Artistic Director Anderson Le.

“At a time of massive paradigm shifts, especially in Hawai’i, it’s vital we explore these real-world effects and anticipate the trends shaping the future of storytelling as it pertains to authenticity and the global marketplace.”

In total, HIFF will screen 72 features and 143 short films from 44 countries. The festival has expanded its shorts programming as it’s the only festival in the State of Hawaii to be an Academy Award qualifier for short films. Two awards will be handed out in the shorts categories – Best Short Film and the Best Made in Hawaii Award, dedicated to short films from Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders.

HIFF will also present the HIFF Kau Ka Hōkū (Shooting Star) Award to the best emerging filmmaker at the festival and the Pasifika Award for Best Feature Film, which focuses on films with a Pacific Islander perspective. The nominees for both awards are listed below. 

Other highlights include titles from Sundance, Cannes, Toronto and Busan film festivals along with major films from the Asia Pacific Rim that will screen at HIFF before their domestic releases. Best of fest titles include Jafar Panahi’s It Was Just An Accident, Lav Diaz’ Magellan, Oliver Laxe’s Sirat, Mascha Schlininski’s The Sound Of Falling and Kleber Mendonca’s The Secret Agent.

“HIFF45 continues our legacy of showcasing the most exciting and groundbreaking voices in global cinema, while also creating a vital hub for industry exchange through our inaugural HIFILM Industry Conference,” said HIFF Executive Director Beckie Stocchetti. 

The fest is scheduled to run October 15-26 in Honolulu and October 28-30 in West O`ahu, followed by screenings on Maui (Oct 19-20), Lana`I (Oct 21-23),  Kaua`I (Nov 1-3), Big Island (Waimea, Nov 7-9), Maui (Nov 8-9) Big Island (Hilo, Nov 13-16) and Moloka`I (Nov 14-16).

Sonam Bajwa Once Rejected Bollywood Offers For This Bold Reason: “Family Should Be Okay”

Sonam Bajwa On Rejecting Bollywood Movies(Photo Credit –Instagram)

Sonam Bajwa is a celebrated star in the Punjabi film industry. She is known for her beauty and exceptional acting skills, and some of her notable Punjabi films include Carry On Jatta 2, Godday Godday Chaa, and Honsla Rakh, among others. Her last Bollywood film was Housefull 5, and she has a handful of upcoming projects like Baaghi 4 and Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, both releasing in 2025. However, did you know that she initially rejected several Bollywood films that required her to do a kissing scene? Read on to know more.

Sonam Bajwa Rejected A Bollywood Film

In an interview with Film Companion, Sonam Bajwa shared that she once rejected a Bollywood film because of a kissing scene. She shared, “In Bollywood, I said no to a couple of things because I said, ‘Is Punjab going to be okay with it?’ Because we have that mentality that family should be okay, families should be watching. I was very scared to do a kissing scene in a film back then, because I thought, ‘ How are people going to respond to it? How are these people who have made me who I am today, are they going to relate to it? Are they going to understand that this is for the script? Is my family going to understand that this is for a film? I had all these questions in my mind. And I let go of a couple of things.”

Sonam Bajwa Recalled An Incident

Sonam also reminisced about an incident of calling her parents and spoke about giving it more thought without rejecting the offers. Sonam said, “It was a couple of years ago; I spoke to my mom and dad about it. They were like, ‘Yes, if it’s for a film, it’s fine.’ And I was so shocked. Why did I not speak to them first? So many things we assume in our heads. I was so shy to discuss this with my parents, and they were like, ‘Koi nahi, je film liya, koi chakkar nahi.’”

More About Sonam Bajwa

For the unversed, Sonam Bajwa was a finalist in Femina Miss India 2012. In the Punjabi film industry, Sonam Bajwa made her acting debut in 2013 with the film Best Of Lucky alongside Gippy Grewal and Jazzy B. Her big break in Bollywood was in Dajid Nadiadwala’s Housefull 5. Sonam will be next seen in Baaghi 4, Border 2, and Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat.

Kimmel Replaced by ‘Celebrity Family Feud’ Over Charlie Kirk Comments: Will Show Be Back?

by jummy84 September 18, 2025
written by jummy84

Jimmy Kimmel Live! was replaced by a repeat of Celebrity Family Feud on Wednesday night (September 17) after ABC pulled the late-night show over comments Jimmy Kimmel made about the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Earlier on Wednesday, a spokesperson for Disney’s ABC announced that the late-night talk show would be on indefinite hiatus following comments Kimmel made about Kirk, the conservative activist who was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10.

The comments people appeared to take offense to were made on Monday’s (September 15) show, when Kimmel said of the alleged shooter, “The MAGA Gang (is) desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

ABC made the decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel Live! after powerful station group Nexstar announced it would preempt the show on its 32 ABC affiliate stations. Sinclair Broadcast Group later announced it would be doing the same on its own affiliate stations.

Late Wednesday, a memo was sent to the owners of ABC’s more than 150 affiliate station partners, according to Variety. The memo stated that the network would be airing reruns of Celebrity Family Feud in the 11:35 pm slot on Wednesday and Thursday (September 18) in place of Kimmel’s show. “Formal guidance from Disney/ABC is forthcoming,” the memo also noted.

Per Variety, a source close to the situation claims that the network has not yet made a formal decision about the future of the long-running late-night program. Conversations between executives and Kimmel and his representatives were said to be ongoing throughout Wednesday.

It’s unclear whether Kimmel’s show will return on Friday (September 19) or if ABC will air other programming in its place. Sinclair announced it will be airing a special Kirk tribute show on its ABC affiliate stations on Friday and has also encouraged Kimmel to make a “direct apology” and “meaningful personal donation” to the Kirk family.

“Sinclair will not lift the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live! on our stations until formal discussions are held with ABC regarding the network’s commitment to professionalism and accountability,” the company said in a press release. “Sinclair also calls upon Mr. Kimmel to issue a direct apology to the Kirk family. Furthermore, we ask Mr. Kimmel to make a meaningful personal donation to the Kirk Family and Turning Point USA.”

The company is also offering its Kirk tribute special to all other ABC stations across the country.

After the news broke on Wednesday, many viewers and fellow celebrities spoke out against ABC’s move, with some saying it went against free speech and others leveling accusations of “corruption.”

The move comes as Nexstar is pushing for the FCC to change its limits on TV station ownership, which would allow it to acquire rival station group, Tegna. The FCC is currently led by veteran Republican member Brendan Carr, who was hand-picked by President Donald Trump last year.
