Sheryl Lee Ralph, the 'Abbott Elementary' star who won an Emmy Monday for best supporting actress, said she was at first confused by the joke. 'When I realized that was (Kimmel), I was like, 'Oh, the disrespect, Jimmy.' (But) that's just me,' said Ralph.
"I love Jimmy Kimmel, but I'm sorry," Ralph added."I told him to his face and he understood."
Kimmel was dragged across the stage by Will Arnett to present the outstanding comedy writing Emmy. Arnett explained that Kimmel was drunk on skinny margaritas after losing the variety/talk category again to John Oliver's HBO series "Last Week Tonight." Backstage, Brunson also played nice with Kimmel, a longtime friend and"Abbott Elementary" supporter, but joked that she"might punch him in the face" when she appears on"Jimmy Kimmel Live."
