In case you haven’t heard, Jimmy Kimmel ruined Quinta Brunson’s moment at the Emmys on Monday by continuing with a lame joke by lying on stage as she gave her acceptance speech.
Before all of that happened, the Abbot Elementary actress was booked on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday. So the talk show host apologized to her. “The last thing I would ever want to do is upset you because I think so much of you, and I, you know, I think you know that. I hope you know that.”
“Well, Jimmy, let me just say thank you. It is very kind of you to say that. I honestly was in such a moment of just having a good time, like I won my first Emmy. I was up there, you know, happy. And I was wrapped up in the moment and just having a good time,” the Emmy winner said. “OMG! I am having so much fun. But thank you. That is kind. But honestly, I had a good night.”
With that, Brunson showed the world that she is a class act. And she deserves all the accolades she is getting. Maybe Kimmel can learn from her. At least, he should.
Brunson also gave an Emmy speech during his monologue. If you want to hear it, then
Abbott Elementary is back on ABC Wednesday will all-new episodes.
