Jimmy Kimmel rolls out longest red carpet
Preparations for the 68th Emmy Awards are underway and host Jimmy Kimmel unrolled the red carpet at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles on Friday. It was no small task though, because this year\'s red carpet was the longest in the history of the award show.
Preparations for the 68th Emmy Awards are underway and host Jimmy Kimmel unrolled the red carpet at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles on Friday. It was no small task though, because this year's red carpet was the longest in the history of the award show.
"The reason we have the longest red carpet in history, and that is pretty exciting, it's because this is going to be the longest Emmy show in history," Kimmel joked.
Actually, the 1,325 ft long carpet was supposed to be symbolic of the rapidly growing television landscape. While the record-long red carpet wasn't expected to cause any problems, Kimmel said should any security issues arise, he would handle them himself.
"Well you know, on 'Dancing with the Stars' someone ran out and interrupted the show when Ryan Lochte was dancing so if something like that happens I won't wait for security. I will beat them to a pulp myself," Kimmel quipped.
Inside the theatre, stagehands were hard at work on erecting the sweeping circular set around a giant Emmy statue. The stage has been accented with silver globes, sculptures and textured walls. Catch all excitement as Awards will be telecast live on Star English Network in India at 4.30 am on September 19.
