<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O’Neill, Modern Family\u2019s patriarch was just minding his business in an airport lounge. A fan suddenly arrived and asked if she could take a picture with him. After the picture, she was so excited. She thanked the actor and happily walked away. She posted the picture on social media and the internet went wild about the fan\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThanks to his role on the hit show, Ed has become very famous among the younger generation. As a result, he has become the centre of attention for these young fans who often want a picture or two with him. That is actually why he thought the mystery woman was just another fan who wanted to add a picture to their social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt\u2019s no secret that Ed likes to keep his private life private. For this reason, the actor does not own a Facebook, Twitter or Instagram account. This is very unusual for a celebrity of his stature but well, it is a choice he made. It also seems like he does not like taking photos because, in 2012, a video was posted on YouTube with the title \u201cEd O\u2019Neill Does Not Like Taking Photos With Fans\u201d because he is seen walking away from fans who wanted a picture with the star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nTurns out the mystery woman also likes to keep to herself. She shies away from stepping out in public to take photos with fans. That explains why it was surprising that she and Ed actually posed for a picture together. Maybe that is the reason the photo went viral in the first place because these are two people with similar attitudes towards photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later.

He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show.

<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen.

When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/12facts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Ed-22-1024x677-1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood. He is desirable property and because of that, producers and studio heads are often after him. The more his portfolio increased, the more his profile increased. Some of his work was in The Bone Collector and Little Giants. This introduced him into a whole new celebrity world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

<<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt\u2019s no secret that Ed likes to keep his private life private. For this reason, the actor does not own a Facebook, Twitter or Instagram account. This is very unusual for a celebrity of his stature but well, it is a choice he made. It also seems like he does not like taking photos because, in 2012, a video was posted on YouTube with the title \u201cEd O\u2019Neill Does Not Like Taking Photos With Fans\u201d because he is seen walking away from fans who wanted a picture with the star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Similar To The Mystery Woman <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nTurns out the mystery woman also likes to keep to herself. She shies away from stepping out in public to take photos with fans. That explains why it was surprising that she and Ed actually posed for a picture together. Maybe that is the reason the photo went viral in the first place because these are two people with similar attitudes towards photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
The Encounter <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nThe mystery woman was lucky to have caught Ed on a good day because he was very happy to pose for the picture, even though his facial expression did not show it. Looks like the encounter was both warm and pleasant with the lady even expressing her love for Modern Family. From the way she called him, it was evident that she had a southern background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Facial Expressions <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nFrom the facial expressions in the picture, the mystery lady was obviously very excited to meet Ed. Funny, the same cannot be said about the actor. He looked not so impressed while seated on the chair. Looks like just because he agreed to have the photo taken did not mean he was excited about it. He was certainly not going to even pretend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Social Media Went Crazy <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe mystery person did not waste any time. They decided to upload the picture to their social media immediately. As soon as it went up on social media, thousands of people shared it. In no time, the picture had reached several news outlets. People took time to comment on the different aspects of the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Mystery identity <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe post was accompanied by the fan\u2019s caption which read \u201c Fancy running into this guy! Such a sweetheart! The post reached so many people online but Ed never saw it. He was only made aware of it by the many text messages he received about the person he was with. He still didn\u2019t know who was with him in the photo until his manager gave him a call and explained the person\u2019s relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Pleasant Encounter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nImagine what would have happened if Ed had refused to take the picture with the excited mystery person. The story of Ed\u2019s rudeness would have spread very quickly everywhere because this was not just an ordinary person. It would have gone to a lot of news outlets. Luckily Ed did the opposite. He agreed to take the photo on that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Popular Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\nThe person who was in the photo with Ed has been in the limelight since they were a child. They were always under so much public scrutiny and graced high profile red carpets very often. They were almost always played on the radio. That is why it was very surprising that Ed did not know them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed On Ellen <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the picture went viral, Ed was invited as a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The show started with them discussing the film Finding Dory in which they had both worked together. However, Ellen couldn\u2019t resist asking about the viral picture. She wanted to get the details of the interesting encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Not So Obvious For Ed <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise that Ed was that oblivious. During the show, he told Ellen that he didn\u2019t even realize that his part in Finding Dory was that big. He only realized it when he was brought to the studio months and months on end. This stirred up laughter among the audience. Ellen could also not contain her laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young Daughters <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd and his wife Catherine Rusoff were married in 1986 but actually waited thirteen years before starting a family. The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later. You would think that because of their age their daughters would have some information about the mystery person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Back To Sitcoms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Funny Confession <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon being asked about it, Ed answered. He said that he was flying alone to Hawaii so he was just seated waiting for the flight. When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Polite Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role.

The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Polite Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role. Critics appraised him for the role. Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood. He is desirable property and because of that, producers and studio heads are often after him. The more his portfolio increased, the more his profile increased. Some of his work was in The Bone Collector and Little Giants. This introduced him into a whole new celebrity world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

<\/figure>\n\n\nThe mystery woman was lucky to have caught Ed on a good day because he was very happy to pose for the picture, even though his facial expression did not show it. Looks like the encounter was both warm and pleasant with the lady even expressing her love for Modern Family. From the way she called him, it was evident that she had a southern background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Facial Expressions <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nFrom the facial expressions in the picture, the mystery lady was obviously very excited to meet Ed. Funny, the same cannot be said about the actor. He looked not so impressed while seated on the chair. Looks like just because he agreed to have the photo taken did not mean he was excited about it. He was certainly not going to even pretend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Social Media Went Crazy <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe mystery person did not waste any time. They decided to upload the picture to their social media immediately. As soon as it went up on social media, thousands of people shared it. In no time, the picture had reached several news outlets. People took time to comment on the different aspects of the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Mystery identity <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe post was accompanied by the fan\u2019s caption which read \u201c Fancy running into this guy! Such a sweetheart! The post reached so many people online but Ed never saw it. He was only made aware of it by the many text messages he received about the person he was with. He still didn\u2019t know who was with him in the photo until his manager gave him a call and explained the person\u2019s relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Pleasant Encounter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nImagine what would have happened if Ed had refused to take the picture with the excited mystery person. The story of Ed\u2019s rudeness would have spread very quickly everywhere because this was not just an ordinary person. It would have gone to a lot of news outlets. Luckily Ed did the opposite. He agreed to take the photo on that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Popular Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\nThe person who was in the photo with Ed has been in the limelight since they were a child. They were always under so much public scrutiny and graced high profile red carpets very often. They were almost always played on the radio. That is why it was very surprising that Ed did not know them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed On Ellen <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the picture went viral, Ed was invited as a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The show started with them discussing the film Finding Dory in which they had both worked together. However, Ellen couldn\u2019t resist asking about the viral picture. She wanted to get the details of the interesting encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Not So Obvious For Ed <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise that Ed was that oblivious. During the show, he told Ellen that he didn\u2019t even realize that his part in Finding Dory was that big. He only realized it when he was brought to the studio months and months on end. This stirred up laughter among the audience. Ellen could also not contain her laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young Daughters <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd and his wife Catherine Rusoff were married in 1986 but actually waited thirteen years before starting a family. The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later. You would think that because of their age their daughters would have some information about the mystery person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Back To Sitcoms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role. Critics appraised him for the role. Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood. He is desirable property and because of that, producers and studio heads are often after him. The more his portfolio increased, the more his profile increased. Some of his work was in The Bone Collector and Little Giants. This introduced him into a whole new celebrity world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe mystery person did not waste any time. They decided to upload the picture to their social media immediately. As soon as it went up on social media, thousands of people shared it. In no time, the picture had reached several news outlets. People took time to comment on the different aspects of the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Mystery identity <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe post was accompanied by the fan\u2019s caption which read \u201c Fancy running into this guy! Such a sweetheart! The post reached so many people online but Ed never saw it. He was only made aware of it by the many text messages he received about the person he was with. He still didn\u2019t know who was with him in the photo until his manager gave him a call and explained the person\u2019s relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Pleasant Encounter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nImagine what would have happened if Ed had refused to take the picture with the excited mystery person. The story of Ed\u2019s rudeness would have spread very quickly everywhere because this was not just an ordinary person. It would have gone to a lot of news outlets. Luckily Ed did the opposite. He agreed to take the photo on that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Popular Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\nThe person who was in the photo with Ed has been in the limelight since they were a child. They were always under so much public scrutiny and graced high profile red carpets very often. They were almost always played on the radio. That is why it was very surprising that Ed did not know them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed On Ellen <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the picture went viral, Ed was invited as a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The show started with them discussing the film Finding Dory in which they had both worked together. However, Ellen couldn\u2019t resist asking about the viral picture. She wanted to get the details of the interesting encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Not So Obvious For Ed <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise that Ed was that oblivious. During the show, he told Ellen that he didn\u2019t even realize that his part in Finding Dory was that big. He only realized it when he was brought to the studio months and months on end. This stirred up laughter among the audience. Ellen could also not contain her laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young Daughters <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd and his wife Catherine Rusoff were married in 1986 but actually waited thirteen years before starting a family. The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later. You would think that because of their age their daughters would have some information about the mystery person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Back To Sitcoms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Funny Confession <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon being asked about it, Ed answered. He said that he was flying alone to Hawaii so he was just seated waiting for the flight. When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nImagine what would have happened if Ed had refused to take the picture with the excited mystery person. The story of Ed\u2019s rudeness would have spread very quickly everywhere because this was not just an ordinary person. It would have gone to a lot of news outlets. Luckily Ed did the opposite. He agreed to take the photo on that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
A Popular Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\nThe person who was in the photo with Ed has been in the limelight since they were a child. They were always under so much public scrutiny and graced high profile red carpets very often. They were almost always played on the radio. That is why it was very surprising that Ed did not know them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed On Ellen <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the picture went viral, Ed was invited as a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The show started with them discussing the film Finding Dory in which they had both worked together. However, Ellen couldn\u2019t resist asking about the viral picture. She wanted to get the details of the interesting encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Not So Obvious For Ed <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise that Ed was that oblivious. During the show, he told Ellen that he didn\u2019t even realize that his part in Finding Dory was that big. He only realized it when he was brought to the studio months and months on end. This stirred up laughter among the audience. Ellen could also not contain her laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young Daughters <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd and his wife Catherine Rusoff were married in 1986 but actually waited thirteen years before starting a family. The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later. You would think that because of their age their daughters would have some information about the mystery person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Back To Sitcoms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Funny Confession <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon being asked about it, Ed answered. He said that he was flying alone to Hawaii so he was just seated waiting for the flight. When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Polite Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role. Critics appraised him for the role. Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the picture went viral, Ed was invited as a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The show started with them discussing the film Finding Dory in which they had both worked together. However, Ellen couldn\u2019t resist asking about the viral picture. She wanted to get the details of the interesting encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Not So Obvious For Ed <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nIt shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise that Ed was that oblivious. During the show, he told Ellen that he didn\u2019t even realize that his part in Finding Dory was that big. He only realized it when he was brought to the studio months and months on end. This stirred up laughter among the audience. Ellen could also not contain her laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young Daughters <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd and his wife Catherine Rusoff were married in 1986 but actually waited thirteen years before starting a family. The two wanted to focus on both their marriage and Ed\u2019s booming career first. They had their first child in 1999 and the second a few years later. You would think that because of their age their daughters would have some information about the mystery person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Back To Sitcoms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Funny Confession <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon being asked about it, Ed answered. He said that he was flying alone to Hawaii so he was just seated waiting for the flight. When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Polite Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role. Critics appraised him for the role. Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood. He is desirable property and because of that, producers and studio heads are often after him. The more his portfolio increased, the more his profile increased.

Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd went back to sitcoms after years of successful appearances in a number of movies. It was in 2009 that Ed was approached to play a part in Modern Family. He was given the role of Jay Prichett. After his appearance in the first season, both critics and fans couldn\u2019t get enough of the show. For that reason, it was renewed for a number of seasons because it was a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
They Want Answers <\/h2>\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\nObviously, after Ellen was done with her interview regarding the movie, she went straight for the story. It was funny for her because the woman in the show was a regular guest on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She had also been involved in many projects with Ellen. That is why it was even more unbelievable that Ed did not know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Funny Confession <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon being asked about it, Ed answered. He said that he was flying alone to Hawaii so he was just seated waiting for the flight. When he was told that the flight was boarding, he was about to head for it when he saw a woman approaching. The woman rushed to him and said how much she loved Modern Family even saying that Mr. O\u2019Neill was her favorite on the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Polite Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip. He didn\u2019t know his phone was about to be bombarded with messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
So Who Was It? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of the people who was trying to to get a hold of him was his manager. He sent him a message asking about the 53,000 likes. Unknown to him, the woman was an international pop superstar. One who has had great success. The star is much younger than Ed though but is a household name worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed\u2019s Fame <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEd shot to fame back in the 80s. In 1987 to be precise with a TV sitcom series \u201cMarried With Cinderella\u201d whereby he had a lead role. Critics appraised him for the role. Thanks to his acting skills, the show was a success. It ended in 1997 after eleven successful seasons. He just didn\u2019t know that the woman he took a photo with was also a star in her field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Displeased Daughter <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, Ed looked around and the mystery person gave him the assurance that she was the only one around and that she understood he was in a hurry. Since the person was nice, Ed agreed to it. He wished her a nice trip and left. He didn\u2019t even think about it during the trip.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOne of those who were frustrated that Ed did not know the star was his daughter, perhaps because she grew up listening to the pop star\u2019s music. She was even jealous of the fact that her father had an encounter with the star. She even sent her father a message labeled the Modern Family actor, a moron for his mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Apologies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nUpon realizing that he took a picture with a celebrity, he found it very laughable but also somehow embarrassing that he had no idea who she was. He called the singer\u2019s manager and apologized for not recognizing one of the most famous women in the world. He clearly needs to upgrade his knowledge of pop culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Oops! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell, the mystery person was none other than singer Brittney Spears. She was actually in the middle of her Las Vegas show residency. It\u2019s just that she decided to take a small break from her tight schedule. She wanted to go on a short vacation with her family. She is known to live a life as private as possible which would explain why she was at the airport but with no entourage. Maybe if she did, Ed would recognize her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Sweetness <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney was so sweet when asking for a picture with Ed probably because she understands what it\u2019s like to be hounded for pictures by fans constantly. She\u2019s a celebrity herself. She has a great idea of what it\u2019s like to be under the fans\u2019 microscope constantly. That is something that actually drove her to a mental breakdown back in 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ed And Brittney <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEllen picked up on Ed\u2019s facial expression, even joking about how he didn\u2019t look too thrilled. Her audience laughed but Ed admitted his mistake. He was actually seated but not in any way like someone seated next to the famous Brittney Spears. He probably just needs to listen to a few of Brittney\u2019s albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
More Twists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThe Twitter post gained over 53,000 likes because Brittney has millions of followers. Her fan base mostly consists of the younger generation. Most of them did comment below the picture asking for the man\u2019s identity. This kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen often so this was a nice celebrity moment. It\u2019s not everyday that Brittney fans out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Brittney\u2019s Appearance <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nAfter the picture was posted, Modern Family\u2019s fans made suggestions calling for Brittney to make an appearance on the show. Well, the show has been renewed for a couple more seasons so who knows. Brittney might just make an appearance soon. That is something the producers have to look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sitcom Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBrittney has actually appeared in a number of sitcoms and even starred in her own movie before. She appeared in The Simpsons, Will & Grace, How I Met Your Mother and Glee. She has always been excited about her roles and always received a great welcome from her co-stars and producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Familiar Faces For The Future <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nWell hopefully after that encounter, Ed and Brittney will be able to have a nice little chat next time they bump into each other in Hollywood. It\u2019s an industry where everybody knows everybody. It was so surprising that he did not even know Brittney. However, Brittney acted very gracefully. She did not even comment on his admission of not knowing her but we hope it was a one-off thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Award-Winning Actor <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd O\u2019Neill won two Golden Globes for his role as Al Bundy. He has also starred in a number of films and it is no surprise that Brittney Spears was star struck. It\u2019s obvious that she is very much aware of his success and that Ed was too involved in his career that he did not really attend the same events as her over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
From Sitcom Star To Movie Star <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nEd has over the years managed to make waves in Hollywood. He is desirable property and because of that, producers and studio heads are often after him. The more his portfolio increased, the more his profile increased.
