I bow to no man in my adoration of “Modern Family” pixie JULIE BOWEN, but mentioning her “nipple covers” a titillating THREE TIMES during her Best Supporting Actress Emmy speech turned out to be a complete…er, bust!
Curvaceous co-star/co-nominee SOFIA VERGARA upstaged Julie with an “accidental” wardrobe malfunction that unzipped the rear of her curve-hugging gown, exposing her… golden globes!
Hollywood spin says vivacious Vergara staged that headline-making stunt to steal Julie’s spotlight.
“Sofia’s an absolute genius at publicity,” a veteran Hollywood media exec told me.
“The spin around town is that it was no accident. Julie won the Emmy, but Sofia ended up the star of the night!”
