After Jimmy Kimmel carried out a bit during Quinta Brunson's 2022 Emmys acceptance speech, the late-night host apologized to the 'Abbott Elementary' star.
"People got upset. They said I stole your moment. And maybe I did," he said."And I'm very sorry if I did do that. I'm sorry I did do that actually. And also, the last thing I would ever want to do is upset you because I think so much of you. And I think you know that. I hope you know that."
Brunson said she did and thanked him for his apology."Well Jimmy let me just say thank you," she said."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. I don't know. I didn't see any of that.
She got another chance to make her speech, too by playfully interrupting Jimmy's opening monologue with her Emmy in tow. "You know how when you win an Emmy you only have 45 seconds to do an acceptance speech, which is, like, not that much time?" she said."And then you get less time because someone does a dumb comedy bit that goes on a bit too long?"
