3 nba championships and thousands of human rights violations. Its weird. Im used to performing in front of big, loving audiences in rooms filled with applause and laughter. Now here i am doing a show alone in an empty house, and the slight wrinkling of a masked cameramans eyes is the only way i can tell if any of this is funny and i see a smattering of wrinkle. All right. But not to worry, if anything goes wrong tonight, i have a great understudy standing by. Hows it going, guillermo . Guillermo im doing good. Youre doing a wonderful job. Ah, guillermo, you tease. Ive always wanted to know, whats your favorite broadway show . Guillermo aladdin. Well guillermo, you aint never had a friend like me just kidding you probably have many dear friends. Im sorry if i made assumptions. Broadway, sadly, is closed at least through the end of the year. Theres no shows, the tony awards were postponed. Which is a shame because thats where most gay highschoolers get their yearbook quotes. Some kids qu

I turned 50 on saturday, which was a lot of fun. We did one of those drive by parties. Where i grew up in compton, you didnt want to be associated with a drive by. But this was fun. My friends and family shouted muffled happy birthdays from their cars while wearing festive masks. It was like my own personal version of the masked singer. Who is that, my mama or chaka khan . And this was an extra special birthday for me, because on friday, i got a star on the hollywood walk of fame. Of course, they say you dont really have a star on the walk of fame until someone dressed as elmo throws up on it. And that happened on tuesday i cant wait to take my grandkids to hollywood boulevard someday and say see where that meth head is break dancing .

And look, its great to be nominated and all, but the truth is i dont do this for the awards. I do it for the money. Ive been nominated for my role on blackish six years in a row. Havent won. Im 0 for 6. That means ive had my same acceptance speech. This acceptance speech in my pocket, for six long years, since september of 2015. And now its time for america to finally hear it. Guillermo . Announce me. Guillermo just a second and the emmy goes to mr. Anthon
