Emmys 2016: 9 Ups & 3 Downs
The Emmys opened with a pre-taped sequence in which Jimmy Kimmel was trying to make his way to the Microsoft Theater for the show.
He was originally seen catching a lift with The People v. O.J. Simpson’s Malcolm Jamal Warner (in a white Ford Bronco, no less), but gets ditched, is picked up by the Modern Family crew until they crash the car, then the Late Late Show host James Corden picks him up until Corden gets sick of Kimmel's singing, Veep’s Julia Louis-Dreyfus greets him but promptly speeds off once she finds out she's not going to the Oscars, and finally, Kimmel gets a lift from a limo driver...played by Jeb Bush.
Bush hilariously declares himself to be "between jobs right now", and when he realises that Kimmel is nominated for an Emmy, he asks him, "What's [being nominated] like?" Jeb then kicks him out of the car and speeds off like a maniac.
Say what you will about the guy, but his self-deprecating humour is totally on-point.
