Obligatory Emmy Post.
September 16, 2007 by Wendy Boswell
Lordy, I’ve still got my panties in a wad over Ryan Seacrest hosting the Emmy’s, y’all. I have this utterly visceral reaction to the man - kind of when you see someone puking and you just can’t help but want to puke yourself…if that makes any sense. Huh.
ANYWAY, here’s a rundown of what’s going on tonight - it’s the Emmy Awards, as any self-respecting media addict knows, so of COURSE you’ll need to come back to Snarky Gossip tonight…ish to see how various Hollywood stylists are inflicting their horrible, horrible revenge on poor, unsuspecting celebrities. Huzzah!
For a painfully detailed list of categories and nominees, keep reading.
Oh, wow - you ARE dedicated, aren’t you. Okay, here you go:
