'Modern Family' Star Announces Surprising Career Pivot
Modern Family alum , who was just four years old when she landed the fan-favorite role of Lily Tucker-Pritchett, is making a major career pivot five years after the comedy series went off the air.
The young actress, now 17, has featured in a variety of musical theater productions since then, as she documents on her TikTok account, and now she's announced another new venture: a brand new original song called "Telephones and Traffic," out this Friday, May 23.
Anderson-Emmons took to the social media platform multiple times this week to tease the new track, sharing a preview of the song and music video that fans are already calling "ethereal."
"Such a dreamy song 💭✨ love it!" one fan complimented in the comments, as another called the tone "majestic" and someone else declared, "this is ethereal 💖."
"THIS IS SO HEAVENLY," someone else exclaimed.
Her singing was praised as "amazing," with one fan calling her voice " warm honey."
"I think this is going to be my new fav song!!" someone even boldly declared.
Others felt it was the perfect fit for the Hunger Games series—specifically to play during the credits of the upcoming Sunrise on the Reaping.
"Telephones and Traffic" follows a single called "Maps," which was released last year.
