the Emmys are tonight, so let’s never forget the time Amy Poehler convinced her other nominees to pretend they were in a beauty pageant when their category was called
I often think about the time Oprah did a cooking segment with a woman whose chicken recipe won $1 million, and Oprah's jaw dropped when she tasted it and realized the lady didn't even add seasoning
Jennifer Coolidge’s speech was perfect:
“I had such big dreams as a young person, but what happens is they get sort of fizzled by life. Mike White, you gave me a new beginning, even though this is the end, 'cause you did kill me off. Even if this is the end, you changed my life”
Quinta Brunson cutting off her own Golden Globes speech because she saw Brad Pitt in the audience…a MOOD
“Comedy brings people together. Comedy gives us all the same laugh-- hey, Brad Pitt!”
they tried playing Michelle Yeoh off with music, and she said "Shut up, please! I can beat you up, okay? And that's serious." LOL I love her
#GoldenGlobes
I love that Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie, and America Ferrera freaked out over Ryan Gosling’s Oscars performance as if they were at a One Direction concert
I’m obsessed with the way Al Pacino announced Oppenheimer as Best Picture. couldn’t have been more chaotic or confusing lol
“Best Picture…uh, I have to go to the envelope for that. And I will. Here it comes. And my eyes see Oppenheimer?”
#Oscars
“Thank you so much for loving me and letting me feel beautiful and Black and proud of all that. It’s probably not, like, a dream to immigrate to this country and have your child be like ‘I want to do improv!,’ but you’re real ones”
—Ayo Edebiri thanking her parents
#Emmys
MJ Rodriquez made history last year as the first trans actress to win a Golden Globe. that ceremony never happened, so tonight Ryan Murphy shouted her out during his own speech so she could get her own standing ovation. love, love, love
Cord Jefferson calling out Hollywood during his Oscar speech…hell yes
“Instead of making one $200 million movie, try making twenty $10 million movies or fifty $4 million movies”
Mike White is so drunk and hilarious. he just called out every famous person in the audience for passing on White Lotus. a true icon lol
"I know you all passed! You all passed on this show! So, yes, it's very gratifying to have this moment."
#GoldenGlobes
The Oscars were so sure that Chadwick Boseman was going to win that they REARRANGED THE ENTIRE CEREMONY so his category could be last, and then they gave the award to Anthony Hopkins instead...the most chaotic and unhinged thing I've ever seen.
Quinta Brunson just became the second Black actress in Emmys history to win Lead in the Comedy category, 42 years after Isabel Sanford won for The Jefferson. Icon!!!
Here’s her tearful speech:
Nicolas Cage reminding the entire audience that he’s a freak who will do anything in a movie…I wouldn’t want it any other way lol. A true king lol
#Oscars
Meghann Fahy is SUCH a good actor. these 30 seconds of Daphne processing her husband’s affair (and then calculating how she’s gonna get back at him) are perfection
#TheWhiteLotus
Ryan Gosling had every A-list celeb on their feet. he turned the entire Oscars theater into a full-on concert. that man has so much charisma and star power wow
Aubrey Plaza and Amy Poehler just played their Parks and Rec characters on SNL omg
"I used to watch Weekend Update when Seth Meyers did it with no one else..." —Amy Poehler, who used to host Update with Seth
Angela Bassett’s reaction to Jamie Lee Curtis’ name being called…you can tell how much that Oscar would have meant to her. she is, was, and always will be incredible. I better see her on that stage SOON
Ariana DeBose is hosting the Tonys without a script because of the writers’ strike. the notes on her arm were illegible, so she’s just winging it. iconic tbh
“I don’t know what these notes stand for, so please welcome whoever walks out on stage next”
1. This is voter suppression.
2. This is illegal.
3. This was deliberate.
4. This will happen again in November if we don’t do something about it.
5. This better anger the hell out of you.
Y’all it’s 10pm in Georgia and Black folk are STILL in line waiting to vote!!!!! Here are photos taken by

I still think the funniest Golden Globes bit ever was when Tina Fey and Amy Poehler had Julia Louis-Dreyfus pretend she was too important for them after being nominated in a film category, and when she lost she slithered back to the TV section with the rest of the lowly people
"If a drag queen wants to read you a story at a library, listen to her because knowledge is power, and if someone tries to restrict your access to power, they are trying to scare you. So listen to a drag queen!"

speech
Here's Daniel Kaluuya's mom and sister reacting to him saying "My mom and my dad...they had sex. It's amazing! I'm here!" at the end of his Oscar speech
"When I was the only Black girl in that class, when you saw me and you told me I was enough, and when I told you I don't see myself...you said 'that's fine, we're gonna forge our own path. You're gonna lay a trail for yourself.'”
—Oscar-winner (!) Da'Vine Joy Randolph
Jennifer Coolidge crying and laughing while telling a story about her dad sneaking her out of 1st grade so they could go to a Charlie Chaplin film festival…I love her
#SAGAwards
Claudia Conway just revealed on TikTok that her mom, Kellyanne Conway, has COVID: "She told me not to post this but I'm so furious please wear your masks guys"
Michael Arden’s bleeped-out Tony Award speech is instantly iconic:
"Growing up, I was called the F-word more times than I could remember. And all I can say now is I'm a faggot with a Tony!"
#TonyAwards
Patti Labelle was just on Jennifer Hudson’s talk show and talked about that infamous cupcake/“eating paper” moment with Tyra Banks and that random woman in 2008 lol
“The way I wanted to slap that heifer so hard!”
things Tanya should have done in this situation:
1. used any of their phones
2. taken the stairs at the back of the yacht
3. jumped into the water
4. taken off those heels before jumping into the boat
5. just waited for help
6. literally anything else
#TheWhiteLotus
Kate McKinnon made a guest appearance on SNL last night for another Alien Abduction sketch with host Ryan Gosling, and she made him break character nonstop lol. His giggle is so cute
I’m once again thinking about the time Taylor Swift and Zac Efron wrote a song about how weird Ellen DeGeneres was, and they sang it to her face on tv lol
Taylor was so tired that Ellen would always claim she was secretly dating a new man whenever she appeared on her show
Reneé Rapp just made her SNL debut as herself during a sketch with Jacob Elordi
Reneé: I've been going absolutely off in every single interview lately, so now I have to do 40 hours of court-ordered media training.
Jacob: You ready, little lesbian intern, Reneé?
the entire Barbie cast was either crying or staring in awe at Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell after their Oscars performance of “What was I made for?”
Bowen Yang making out with both Sydney Sweeney and Gina Gershon in an SNL sketch about how he only pretends to be gay in real life so it can help his career…love
“Shit! Fuck! Wow! Thank you! This is not just for me. This is for every little girl who looks like me. Thank you for giving me a seat at the table.” —Michelle Yeoh during her SAG award speech
not Ayo Edebiri addressing her resurfaced jokes about Jennifer Lopez’s whole career being a scam during an SNL sketch lol
“Okay. We get it. It's wrong to leave mean comments or run your mouth on a podcast and you don't consider the impact because you're 24 and stupid...”
Golden Globes host Jo Koy just went off-script after one of his jokes bombed: “I got the gig 10 days ago! You want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up. You’re kidding me, right? Slow down. I wrote some of these, and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.”
#GoldenGlobes2024
Matthew Macfadyen thanking his "two on-screen wives" before his actual wife...kind of iconic lol
"I must make special mention to my on-screen wife, Sarah Snook, and my other on-screen wife, Nicholas Braun…thank you to my actual wife, Keeley."
#Emmys
Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie are so good together.
“Thank you to Noah Baumbach for showing his inner Barbie girl. Thank you to Ryan Gosling for going full beach. And America Ferrera for showing her soul.”
#GoldenGlobes
I’ll never get over Toni Collette being only 25 when she filmed this scene in The Sixth Sense. legend. icon. superstar. mother.
she EARNED that Oscar nomination, and I still can't believe it's her only one
Actors, writers and directors are collaborating on a charity auction with proceeds going towards helping crew members whose healthcare benefits are currently at risk during the strike.

this moment between Quinta Brunson and the Abbott Elementary cast during her Golden Globes speech is SO sweet. I love how much they support and admire each other
