A little over an hour into the 69th annual Emmy awards, viewers received the award of Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton, and Jane Fonda on their television screens. The 9 to 5 stars reunited to present the Emmy for Best Supporting Actor in a limited series or movie, for which Fonda started off with the line: “In 1980, we refused to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss.”
Tomlin continued, “And in 2017 we still refuse to be controlled by a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot boss.” (You know, Trump.)
Meanwhile, Parton is “just hoping that I’m going to get one of those Grace and Frankie vibrators in my swag bag tonight.”
