Jimmy Kimmel has been called out for 'white male privilege' after how he acted during Quinta Brunson's Emmy speech.
The TV host has been accused of overshadowing Quinta's big moment as he lied down flat on the stage while she accepted the award for her ABC series Abbott Elementary - which was her first-ever Emmy.
Both Kimmel and Will Arnett were presenting Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series but when they were announced, Arnett was seen dragging Kimmel on stage.
Arnett went on to say that after Kimmel lost the Emmy for his late-night series Jimmy Kimmel Live, 'the 13th time in a row,' the host got into the 'skinny margaritas' and apparently passed out.
Arnett then had to drag him on stage where he remained during Quinta's speech.

However, it seems that not all viewers found the lying down amusing.
One person tweeted: "So Jimmy Kimmel is really gonna upstage her speech by laying on the floor in front of her? Like what the f***?"
While a second said: "Jimmy Kimmel should have left the stage during Quinta's speech. Highly disrespectful."
Another wrote: "I must say this is the first time Jimmy Kimmel has actually p***** me off. So rude and inconsiderate to still be laying there like an absolute idiot. Can't let Quinta have her moment? Really? Guess he's just another cocky attention-seeking narcissist."
A fourth said: "CAN SOMEONE TELL THE HUMAN PERSONIFICATION OF WHITE MALE PRIVILEGE THAT IS @jimmykimmel THAT HE IS NOT ENTITLED TO TAKE UP *ALL* THE SPACE—ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT SPACE BELONGS TO @quintabrunson WHO HAD TO LITERALLY NAVIGATE AROUND HIM TO ACCEPT HER HISTORIC #EMMY"
When Quinta's name was called, she made her way up to the stage as Arnett moved Kimmel's body so she could get through.
As she walked on the stage she joked, 'Jimmy wake up, I won!'
Kimmel gave a brief thumbs up but then went back to lying still on the floor.
Quinta began her speech: "Umm... my goodness I want to say thank you to ABC, to Disney, to Fox, and to Warner Brothers it takes that many people to make a television show.
"I need to say thank you to Justin and Patrick, my co-show runners, for believing in a story from four years ago and thinking that it would make a good TV show."
She added: "I do want to thank Larry Wilmore for teaching me to write television as well as he did I know that's random and in case I am not back up here again, I have to thank my mom, dad, brothers and sisters, my cousins, we would be here forever if I tried to name my cousins and uncles and aunts my wonderful husband because he's the most supportive man I've ever known and my incredible cast and show for helping me to make this show and make the pilot. Thank you."
Even once the speech had finished, Kimmel stayed on the ground, with Arnett even seen dragging Kimmel backstage when the show cut to commercial.
However, it seems that Quinta wasn't too offended about the situation as she said backstage: "I know Jimmy Kimmel and I felt like the bit didn’t bother me that much."
