Jennifer Coolidge danced away being played off the Emmy Awards

Coolidge greeted the audience with her signature way of speaking, telling them, “Hey, hi.” Dressed in a sparkling emerald green dress, she said she took a lavender bath that caused her to “swell up” inside her dress.

The music quickly began playing her off when she started thanking people, but she continued on. When producers cued “Hit the Road Jack,” she began to dance along to the music. The crowd loved it.

Many people took to social media to blast the Emmys for playing her off as she was speaking. Writer Bess Kalb wrote, “I speak for the United States of America when I say: Less scripted banter between presenters more Jennifer Coolidge.”
