【ハリウッドより愛をこめて】本年度のエミー賞、最も「ホット」だったのは…?
(原文)
Hi everyone!! I hope you are enjoying the lovely fall weather!! Over here in Los Angeles, it is still incredibly HOT!!! In fact this summer has been very unusually HOT weather. So I am VERY excited about things cooling down!
Speaking of HOT (this will be the keyword during this article!!!!), this past weekend was, of course, the "Academy Awards" of television...The Emmys!!! And this year I was at the red carpet and press room throughout the event, covering it for AXN Channel. And It was quite exciting!!! First of all...the weather was SO HOT during the red carpet that quite a few of the reporters,etc. fainted from heat exhaustion!! YIKES!
I found it quite fascinating because all the celebs that you would expect to be at the Academy Awards or something were at the Emmys this year...stars like Tom Hanks, Nicole Kidman, Kevin Costner, Lucy Lui, etc. But I guess that just goes to show that right now TELEVISION is the HOT commodity.
In fact many times during speeches backstage at the press room, the Emmy winners talked about how television is in a Golden Age right now, and all the "interesting roles" are in t.v., not in film right now. So I guess that explains why so many of Hollywood’s biggest names have recently been gravitating towards the small screen for work.
If you haven’t heard, POLITICS seemed to be the HOT topic of the night...and shows that dealt in political themes such as "Homeland" and "Game Change" walked off with many of the awards. As far as comedy goes, the night belonged to "Modern Family" again this year.
While I was on the red carpet I had a chance to talk to some of the nominees such as Ben Feldman (nominated for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama)
