There's nothing we love more than a hot blonde who's also funny as hell.

Case in point: Julie Bowen.

We caught up with the Modern Family funnylady at last night's Breakthrough of the Year Awards in Hollywood to chat about her Emmy nom, the hopefully-we'll-see gay kiss on MF, and her plans not to have more kids...ever!

Why haven't we seen gay couple Cameron and Mitchell kiss on Modern Family
Here's a secret: Jesse Tyler Ferguson has terrible breath. Eric Stonestreet just doesn't want to get that close [laughs].

But really...
I have no idea. It never occurred to me that they kiss or haven't kissed. I'm sure they will. We've got really smart, really creative writers and they don't want to write a scene that's just about a kiss. I'm sure they'll find a way to make it very smart and clever.

Where will you put your Emmy if you win?
Oh my god, first I'm going to take it out of your ass because there's no way I'm going to win an Emmy. There's no way I will win an Emmy, it's ridiculously absurd that I was nominated. Jane Lynch has it locked up.

So you are a fan of Glee?
Yeah, I like Glee. I love Jane Lynch. I think she's fantastic because there's no one like her. The rest of us are all trying to compete to be cute and funny and she's like, "F--k that. I'm just me and I'm awesome."

You already have three young sons—planning on having any more babies?
There will never ever be anything else coming out of my body unless it's vomit.
