"Extra" correspondent Terri Seymour spoke with the cast of ABC's hit comedy "Modern Family," along with creator Steven Levitan about pop sensation Britney Spears possibly doing a guest appearance.

Levitan confirmed that Spears was officially asked to be on the show. "By the time we heard from her people we had already [planned] all the episodes for the season. But you never know." http://extratv.warnerbros.com/2012/0...ern_family.php

“We just want to wait until it’s the exact right role for the right person,” Levitan explains. “[They are] not turned down, we’re just waiting for it to be right.”
He also specifically says of Britney that her camp called up to ask right at the end of the season, so it was too late for this year. As for next season, “Who knows? If the right thing comes along. If we use someone like Britney Spears who is just such a presence, we need to make sure that it’s OK for us and works within our show. That there’s some fresh take on using her in the show.”
Levitan adds: “It’s very flattering that any big stars want to come on our show.”
