Five stars of Modern Family aren’t happy with their current contracts and have brought a lawsuit attempting to have the courts void them.

Sofia Vergara, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Eric Stonestreet, Julie Bowen and Ty Burrell claim they are all locked in agreements that bind them to the hit ABC show from February 2009 until June 2016. California law only allows for personal contracts to last 7 years.

“Since its debut on ABC in the fall of 2009, Modern Family has been one of the most successful shows on television,” said court papers filed by the five actors.

They continued: “Modern Family has been a breakout critical and financial success. That success, however, has been built upon a collection of illegal contracts.”

The current deal is said to contain a pay raise for each year, however the group appears to want a more substantial increase as the show brings in so much revenue.

Ed O’Neill is contracted differently than the others and was not a part of the original lawsuit however he has since joined his fellow actors in a show of solidarity.

The cast did not attend today’s first table reading of the show’s fourth season but Deadline reports all will show tomorrow in a good faith gesture. Negotiations are ongoing.

 Sofia Vergara wore pink at last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards.  Her strapless gown by Marchesa featured a structured bodice that reminded me of wings getting ready to fly right off her chest.   (Oh dear, I think I’ve now officially looked at too many SAG Awards red carpet photos.)

Vergara looked great of course; then again, she is the kind of person who could wear any old schmatte and make it look fabulous.

More views after the jump, including a photo of her wielding her statuette from Modern Family‘s Best Comedy Ensemble win.  Congratulations guys!

Sofia Vergara has launched her new clothing line Kmart this week.

The star of Modern Family headed to the Astor Place store to show off her fashions and talk style.

“I wanted to create a collection that the normal woman could afford and look sexy and cute without blowing all their funds,” Vergara said.

“I like to wear a lot of sexy clothes, but I also like to be comfortable,” the Colombian born actress said of her personal style. “I like to be fashionable and chic, so I try to mix it up. I like a little color, but I like a little black too.”

The initial collection includes animal print t-shirts, ruched sweater-knit miniskirts, lacy knit dresses and faux leather jackets.

Sofia and her MF costars grabbed lots of awards at the Primetime Emmys last weekend, including Outstanding Comedy Series.
