The Emmy nominations were announced today and missing from the Best Drama category is Empire. Well, the show’s creator, Lee Daniels, took to Instagram with a message for those Emmy voters. One we all were thinking after we heard who was nominated. He said, “F*ck those Mother F*ckers!” Amen!
I wish more of the snubbed producers were as honest as he is. Then maybe the shows that deserved the nominations would actually get them.
UPDATE: He released a second video and said, “Some of these people ain’t got nothing else better to do than to hate on me for having fun. I was having fun. I love the Emmys and I am excited about my cast and crew that got nominated. And for the other people that got nominated for Emmys.” Then he added, ” So haters shut up and go to bed. Sit down.”
I am going to pretend that he didn’t release the second video because I like the first one so much more.
