It\u2019s all good between Jimmy Kimmel and Quinta Brunson. The late-night host apologized on Wednesday for a gag he performed at the Emmy Awards that some observers found disrespectful. During Monday\u2019s televised ceremony, Will Arnett dragged Kimmel out on the stage. Kimmel was supposedly passed out drunk from losing the Emmy for a variety series to John Oliver. Brunson then had to accept her Emmy for \u201cAbbott Elementary\u201d with Kimmel lying on the stage in front of her.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was a dumb comedy bit that we thought it would be funny,\u201d Kimmel said, adding: <\/p>\n

\u201cI lost, and then I drank too much, and I had to be dragged out on the stage. And then people got upset. They said I stole your moment, and maybe I did and I\u2019m very sorry if I did do that. I\u2019m 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

If there are any hard feelings, Brunson didn\u2019t let it show. \u201cThank you, that\u2019s kind,\u201d she said. \u201cBut honestly, I had a good night. I had a great night.\u201d Kimmel seized the chance for one last gag. \u201cI should also say it was really Will Arnett\u2019s fault, the whole thing,\u201d he said. \u201cHe drugged me and he dragged me out there and I was unconscious.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n
