Ps: (please like) late late show people: don’t upload such short clips …. Damn why ?

[@nlrproductions8106]

I didn’t know she was Happy Gilmour until last year.

[@KeatrithAmakiir]

I didn't know until right now

[@andrewgrove1691]

I knew her from the start. She was on the TV show ed at the time

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

Curious where that "swan" girl is now

[@jonimather337]

That and her mean splicing abilities.

[@Olivia3641]

I still don’t believe that was her. She looks like a completely different person. When I watched Happy Gilmore for the first time, I already knew who she was, because she was on Modern Family. Although, I was completely gobsmacked when my mother told me it was Julie Bowen of Modern Family. She’s just amazing and beautiful on every level.

James should have face timed Julie with Harry Styles!!!!!

[@Desmondbrown73]

So fake and scared
