Why would he? He's not a TV personality like that, and he didn't have anything that was nominated.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Probably not because Prince made numerous music videos and the MTV Music Awards recently chose not to acknowledge him.

The In Memoriam will pay tribute to Garry Marshall

Henry Winkler will introduce the In Memoriam segment with a remembrance of the famous director, and singer Tori Kelly will perform. Among the many other celebrity names included in the Emmys In Memoriam database that viewers can watch for: David Bowie, Prince, Gene Wilder, Garry Shandling, Muhammad Ali, George Martin and more.

And the saddest thing about this situation is that The Emmys realizes the influence Prince had, and with two TV appearances to his name, they jumped at the chance to honor him. MTV, who he was a major staple of, couldn't see that.

Yes, that was very sweet of The Emmys to do that.

Yeah, you might be thinking of the Golden Globes, which sort of covers movies and TV. That's usually a bit before the Oscars themselves. Tonight is the Primetime Emmys. There's also a daytime Emmy ceremony, for daytime shows, totally separate.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Yup, you will never see me watching MTV award shows again. I have no interest from here on out anyway.

What a beautiful tribute. I don't know why people hate on Tori Kelly she was great tonight. And how cool that Prince was the last artist shown in the montage. They showed him blowing a kiss from the end of his Super Bowl performance. 💜

Seen it too. It was really touching. I was crying from the first verse of the song and they didn't show him until the end so...

The Emmys DID that!

Not only was the memorial very touching, but they awarded Rami Malek and the girl who plays like 20 different characters awards for Best Actor and Best Actress!

Tori Kelly is great! It's just that her music has to catch up with her talent.
