A somewhat belated post about the Emmy Awards.
Hello, dears. I apologise for the delay in this post, I intended to have it up yesterday and then my Internet crapped out all day. Please forgive me, and we’ll get straight into it:
Let’s start with the red carpet, and segue into the after party photos:
-
- Backstage, Sofia Vergara’s emergency team rushed to sew her dress back together after she split it open.
-
- Sofia Vergara’s butt. She tweeted ‘Yes!!!! This happened 20 min before we won!!!! Jajajaja. I luv my life!!!!’
-
- I can’t even be bothered coming up with a caption.
-
- The dress is a pretty colour, but it kind of looks like it’s made out of denim, which kind of makes me want to die.
-
- No idea who she is, and she has the colouring of a palamino horse, but I like her dress.
-
- God, she’s probably the most basic bitch alive, right. Ugh. Give it uuuuuup, Kelly.
-
- Aw, she looks super cute, and age-appropriate today! Love her.
-
- A boring, cheap looking dress, in a awful colour, and it’s making her tits look saggy. I don’t know who she is and I don’t think I want to.
-
- Her face scares me and she reminds me of one of those cupcake dolls. Why the orange shoes? Is she trying to match her hair? I can’t even.
-
- A beautiful, albiet safe, dress, at least there’s no orange anywhere to assault my eyes.
-
- The lace is pretty but the dress is totally shapeless, and is it just me or can I maybe see a nip?
-
- Hello, my girl. I wonder what she’s been up to that’s warranted her an invite to the Emmy Awards.
-
- Classic. Love it. January Jones should take notes.
-
- More orange? Gaaawd. That being said, I actually really like this. The colour actually looks nice on her and the dress is fierce.
-
- Tittiiiiiiiiiiiiiees! I love Kat Dennings, love her look. Makes me think of that TV Rock song Flaunt It (Ha! Whatcha momma gave you, HA!)
-
- I would love this if she’d chopped the sleeves off, but even with the sleeves she looks nice. Good job not wearing orange shoes to match your hair, Jane (that I can see, anyway.)
-
- Jena looks pissssssed, but kind of fierce. I dunno, the dress kind of looks like it’s made out of hair, but I like it, and her hair is kind of blah, but her expression is kind of winning me over, soooo, I dunno. Call it even, for me.
-
- Well. That’s a big, red, sack, isn’t it?
-
- I LOVE HER SHE CAN DO NO WRONG. She is so adorable.
-
- I don’t know who she is but her dress is kind of bridesmaidsy. Not to say she looks bad, but it’s like, whatever.
-
- Okay, is it just me or have I seen Ginnifer Goodwin in this exact dress before? I could’ve sworn she wore this the last time I recapped an award show she was at.
-
- Lol no.
-
- Aaron looks hot, his girlfriend (I guess?) looks hot too, although it does look like her dress is being held together by safety pins. I’m jealous of her long long hair.
-
- I kind of like this, she has a Rooney Mara vibe going on. I’m not really digging the bottom part of the dress, but the top is cool.
-
- Nothing makes me sadder than when actresses I like wear awful, age and figure inappropriate clothing. I’m not even touching the hair. Ugh.
-
- It kind of looks like she needs to adjust her dress somehow, like pull it down or something, because it’s all bunchy and I don’t think it looks right. It’s a pretty dress aside from that, though, and I like the hair and make up with it.
-
- It might just be me, but sometimes I wish Heidi would just pick tits or leg and show one of them off. I feel like every time I see her she’s ready for a Victoria’s Secret show, and although she’s got the body for it, it’s like, there’s a time and a place. I’ll give her a pass because she’s probably rubbing it in Seal’s face, though.
-
- Glenn Close can do what she wants. She looks fierce.
-
- Love them. Jon Hamm, get around me. Jennifer, I’m sorry but no one’s looking at you so it doesn’t matter what you’re wearing.
-
- I think I would’ve liked this more if it didn’t have the blue thing all over it, because I’m fair more interested in the fabric underneath it, and the sash makes it a less flattering silhouette.
-
- Um, someone please tell me that there’s some nude fabric connecting the front to the back of her dress, because I don’t want to see Edie Falco’s side boob. Also her hair is making me so very unhappy.
-
- Um, I think I like it?
-
- Okay, so I love the dress, but I want January Jones to always be Betty Draper because I think she looks so much prettier that way. Oh, and someone needs to tell her to lay off the whoreface make up, because it’s like every single time with her, I swear.
-
- I think she looks really nice, and that makes me happy because she has some some awful red carpet moments, hasn’t she?
-
- Blahhhh.
-
- I love the dress, but I would’ve worn different shoes with it.
-
- Seth looks like Seth, his wife seems to be wearing an awesome dress but I wish I could see more of it because I am loving that fabric.
-
- I’m going to whip out some Simple Life quotes for this one: ‘That’s hot.’ ‘Loves it.’
-
- She looks nice, I like the colour of the dress.
-
- I LOVE Julianne Moore so much. So so much. On anyone else I would hate this, but I think she rocks this mustard dress.
-
- Generally I think she’s a hard, mannish looking woman, but I actually really like her here. The dress is pretty. Does anyone watch The Good Wife? I caught half an episode awhile ago and it seemed good. Should I watch it?
-
- I see Nicole had a half smile frozen onto her face for the occasion, that’s nice. Aside from that, I really like her dress, like, a surprising amount.
-
- I love the colour. You know who I think would look better in it? Julianne Moore, with some fierce magenta lipstick. I actually think I’ve seen her in that before, now that I think about it.
-
- I like the colour and the shape, but don’tcha think it kind of looks like it’s being held together with staples? Like it’s made out of crepe paper or something?
-
- I don’t even watch Downton Abbey and I find this bitch enthralling. I can see why people love her. Love the dress.
-
- She’s not as interesting as Rooney, is she, but she’s done okay.
-
- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMG I WILL NEVER STOP LAUGHING. Coneheads, anyone?
-
- Um, okay, Lena Dunham actually looks nice? What even is this? Also, is it just me or does she kind of look like Alex Mack (Larisa Oleynik) does now, if you’ve seen Mad Men or PLL this season?
-
- Same old, same old. Zooey’s expression perfectly depicts my face as I see her in this dress.
-
- She’s like a sexy disco ball. I’m digging it.
-
- He’s a babe, she’s got raccoon eyes and all I think about when I see her is that whole Phillippines debacle: http://popcultureperversion.com/2012/01/30/so-i-guess-everyones-forgiven-claire-danes-then/
-
- That’s a great colour for her and I like that they’re matching. If I’m going to call Claire Danes out, though, I should probably also mention this: http://www.tmz.com/2007/04/22/alecs-threatening-message/
-
- Love them, they can do whatever they want and they’ll get a pass from me.
-
- I’m not even going to comment on the dress because I’m way too upset that Will Arnett isn’t standing next to her.
-
- The dress is fine but I’m kind of disappointed that she’s not wearing that spiky black dress from all the Revenge print ads.
-
- Love the colour, no idea who she is.
-
- That dress, I really like it! If I sound surprised it’s because I sometimes forget that Nicole is capable of anything other than looking like a mannequin.
-
- Hoooooooooly shit. I can’t even with Christina’s rack, it’s like, how even? She must have terrible back pains.
-
- Aww, that’s the girl off American Horror Story, and Ed O’Neill, I just love him.
-
- Yeah, I think I like her safety pin dress.
-
- Connie looks so shitfaced. I love Zachary Quinto, he’s great.
-
- Julie Bowen’s great, I’m so happy she won.
-
- Does anyone watch Homeland? Is it as good as it’s supposed to be?
-
- Julianne, I love you.
-
- Christine Baranski can do no wrong in my book because she’s in The Ref with Dennis Leary and Kevin Spacey. Watch it, it’s my all time favourite Christmas film and she’s hilarious in it.
-
- MIndy Kaling, my spirit animal. I could not love her more, and I love that dress on her.
-
- Jessica Lange is so fierce.
-
- I legitimately was just like ‘Awww!’ when I saw this. Too cute.
-
- So Getty Images will have you believe that the girl next to him is Heather McComb, but I’m pretty sure they broke up, and also, that’s not Heather McComb. Poor Heather, to be so irrelevant that a girl who looks literally nothing like you is credited with your name because no one can remember what you look like. I remember, Heather. I remember.
-
- Sarah Hyland and David Arquette are some of my favourite people.
-
- I love everything about this photo.
Opening the show, Zooey Deschanel, Christina Hendricks and Mindy Kaling are all backstage preparing their ‘I can’t believe I won!’ faces (and Mindy’s is the best.). Lena Dunham is disgusting, but what else is new? And finally, Kathy Bates is the unsinkable Molly no matter what she does (unless it’s Misery).
Jimmy’s opening speech was decent, and you can watch that and the opening speech here.
As for onstage antics, Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert tackled Jon Stewart when he won for Best Variety show:
Jimmy Kimmel got Josh Groban to perform a partially past-tense rendition of One Direction’s What Makes You Beautiful in memoriam… to Jimmy Kimmel:
