Eric Stonestreet is America's favorite homosexual, even though he isn't gay – not that there's anything wrong with that. Stonestreet plays Cam on the hit television show "Modern Family" and has won two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series as a result.
But before the breakthrough role, Stonestreet spent over a decade acting on notable TV shows like "Monk," "CSI," "Malcom in the Middle," "Party of Five" and "ER." We had the chance to chat with Stonestreet recently about his new partnership with Swiffer, playing Cam on "Modern Family" and fielding questions about Sofia Vergara.
Is "Stonestreet" your real last name? Because that's a badass last name.
It's sort of like the Simpsons episode where Homer changes his name to "Max Power," a real heavy-handed last name. You could be an NFL linebacker if the TV stuff doesn't work out.
Tell me about your collaborative effort with Swiffer and the "Swiffer Effect" video with your mom.
Hashtag let's go viral, Eric.
Can we talk about the groupies, Eric? Do women just throw themselves at you now that you're everywhere?
As far as the sexual aspect of your character Cam, how difficult is that to play as someone who isn't gay?
How many Sofia Vergara questions do you field in an average day?
Are you on your average for this point of the day? Or are you low?
