Quinta Brunson is an Emmy winner!!
The 32-year-old actress, writer, and comedian won her first Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for her hit ABC series Abbott Elementary at the 2022 Emmy Awards on Monday (September 12) at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
While it was an incredible moment for Quinta, Jimmy Kimmel kind of stole the spotlight from her.
Will Arnett dragged out a “passed out” Jimmy on stage to present the award, and joked that Jimmy got “drunk” after losing the Emmy yet again to John Oliver.
Instead of getting up to end the bit after Quinta won, Jimmy continued to lay on the stage and Quinta had to stand over him while giving her acceptance speech.
After the moment occurred, Emmy watchers took to Twitter to react, and they are not happy that Jimmy‘s “bit” overshadowed Quinta‘s moment.

Jimmy Kimmel should have left the stage during Quinta’s speech. Highly disrespectful #Emmys

Listen plenty of folks get Emmys but only Quinta stepped over the lifeless body of Jimmy Kimmel to get her Emmy and that is so important to me

Jimmy Kimmel would NEVER lay on the ground while his WHITE colleagues received an #Emmy. Quinta really should have kicked his teeth in. 😡😡😡😡

Okay Jimmy Kimmel being “passed out” for Will Arnett presenting was funny, but him not moving out of the way for Quinta is just annoying and rude

Yo fuck Jimmy Kimmel. Get your ass off the stage. It’s somebody else’s moment. Asshole behavior
— Groovy Woo (@shomawoo18) September 13, 2022
Jimmy Kimmel should be executed for laying there as Quinta was giving her speech

Jimmy Kimmel is ruining this moment for Quinta Brunson.
She played along with the bit, but that was her moment.

Low key annoyed at Jimmy Kimmel trying to take the spotlight when QUINTA MOTHA F@(&IN BRUNSON just won her first Emmy. #Emmys2022
— Candace Lowry Bryant (@TheCandaceLowry) September 13, 2022
I must say this is the first time Jimmy Kimmel has actually pissed me off. So rude and inconsiderate to still be laying there like an absolute idiot. Can't let Quinta have her moment? Really? Guess he's just another cocky attention-seeking narcissist. #Emmys2022
— Basically Hollywood (@Basic_Hollywood) September 13, 2022
If you did not know why Jimmy Kimmel lost an Emmy the 13 times he was nominated, now you know. Such a not funny and unoriginal bit. #Emmys2022

Jimmy Kimmel still laying on the floor while Quinta received her award and gave her speech was super disrespectful #Emmys2022
— Evie (@Evieeloves) September 13, 2022
Jimmy Kimmel owes Quinta Brunson an apology for his “joke” during one of the most important events of her life. Seriously disgraceful to watch
— Vic Colfari (@weirdo__ripper) September 13, 2022
Imagine having to watch Jimmy Kimmel be dragged out on stage (literally) and then lay there during your acceptance speech only to have producers start to play music to end said speech. SMH. Congrats Quinta!!! #Emmys
— Jimmy (@JimmyJets) September 13, 2022
Jimmy Kimmel not moving to get out of Quinta Brunson's way is a (shitty, selfish, bullshit) choice. #Emmys
— Andy Dehnart (@realityblurred) September 13, 2022
Kinda really mad Kimmel stole Quinta’s moment at the #Emmys. Like get out of the way
— TOMMY (@tommypisani) September 13, 2022
God, Jimmy Kimmel sucks so much.

How odd that on a night honoring incredible performances about substance abuse from Zendaya and Michael Keaton the Emmy producers also included the lame joke from Jimmy Kimmel about getting drunk and passing out. Ha ha ha.

The Jimmy Kimmel bit was not funny in the first place but him not getting up and out of the way of Quinta? Despicable.
— feral girl summer 🌞🌻🍉⛱ (@Juliet_Taylor08) September 13, 2022
The Will Arnett and Jimmy Kimmel bit was funny right up until the moment when Jimmy overcommitted and didn't remove himself from the stage to give Quinta her full moment #Emmys2022
— Emily Slater (@emislater) September 13, 2022
jimmy kimmel’s little bit detracted from quinta’s big moment and that’s just infuriating
— Alexis Benveniste (@apbenven) September 13, 2022
Okay, Jimmy Kimmel, the bit was funny when Will Arnett was announcing the winner. But you could at least get out of the way when Quinta Brunson wins her first Emmy and delivers her acceptance speech. #Emmys
