Jean Smart campaigning for an Emmy despite husband dying

Emmys are the next to be cancelled.

Yes, she's contractually obligated to promote the show, and HBO publicity sets these things up.

And what's it to you, OP? The woman can't do some remote interviews to take her mind off her terrible loss?

Being coy isn't going to bring him back. Working for recognition is a nice distraction.

I would imagine the man who married the incomparable Jean Smart loves her for her ambition and professionalism, and both insists on, and understands her need to work.

OP = Judith Ivey

OP types loveless incel who doesn't understand shit about the dynamics of a marriage.

Should she be beating her breast and rending her garments, screaming "Women of Troy: It's Time For the Funeral"?

We never stop working for you plebs, not ever. So why should she? Her husband might to see her winning an Emmy before he dies.

Jean Smart is a national treasure. So glad she gets the love and acclaim she so richly deserves.

Ok you've convinced me she may need to work to get her mind off things BUT if HBO is making her do these things it might be a bit cruel and pointless.

Look at the views for Gold Derby.

No body is watching these things. Let the poor woman grieve.

Well it's been a few months hasn't it? After my great love John Cazale died I was married six months later. I mean just get on with it. Other fish in the sea and all that etc.

BTW I've never done any of those skype things begging for an Oscar, have I? How humiliating.

Go fuck yourself OP. She's a treasure. While even your own mother hates you

Calm down MARY! at r12.

I wasn't sure if they were forced to do these things. I retracted my judgement at r10.

HBO could have let her wait a little bit. Emmy season has barely started. I now feel kind of sorry for her being made to do these things.

I eat old people’s excrement.

Gee, disparaging Jean Smart's awards hunger is really provoking anger.

Switch the topic of this thread to Viola or Kate Winslet. Sorry for all the upset.

[quote] And what's it to you, OP?

Nothing. OP hates anyone who enjoys what they do, smiles or isn't miserable like he is. They are his enemy.

She's probably doing it to not have to focus on her husband dying.

The more things you have to pre-occupy yourself with the less time to dwell on the pain and grief.

OP, do [italic]not[/italic] fuck with Jean. I will snip those little nut-free M&Ms you call testicles and have them for lunch.

but with Gold Derby? They only have like 20 viewers.

She needs to call Oprah. Weep, tell us of your suffering. Now that works.

r16 we've established she is doing this out of contracts.

I'm sure she likes acting. Chatting on Skype with some nobody journalist I'm sure is more something she had to get thru than enjoy.

OP is a fat troll and now she's diddling her rotting clit mirthfully and ferociously while reading all your triggered replies.

WRONG r22 I have a pleasant peanut clit!

STFU about some TV actress. I lost an Oscar because I"m too sexy!!! Focus on me!!!

R22 😂

Considering Smart has not ONE but TWO series running concurrently on HBO, it's pretty obvious she would be obligated to do press, something which she would have agreed to do before her husband passed. OP, people are angry because of what is perceived as an attempt to cast a negative light on a very talented individual, who also seems to be a good person.

The people complaining that she's doing her job are the same one screaming that the Burger,King closed early due to lack of staffing

R27 you are an idiot

[quote] we've established she is doing this out of contracts.

Who established? There is no "we." Do you have her contracts? Link them.

[quote] I'm sure is more something she had to get thru than enjoy.

Well, as long as your sure. It must be fact.

I love Jean Smart. I really do. And I'd love her even more if she had craft enough not to always look like a fat girl trying to act like a fat-girl's version of a world-weary woman who is not fat.

I really would.

R24. Hey Viola...if Jean were up against you for an Oscar, she'd beat your ass.

R29 *you're

I love her.

But why would HBO make her talk to a little website like Gold Derby? Look at their videos linked above. They have no audience. She maybe got one emmy vote by doing this than if she hadn't.

The Hollywood Reporter yes. Gold Derby, HBO let the woman skip it and relax.

Let it go, freak! Turn your OCD elsewhere.

You are obsessed with GoldDerby's video viewing figures. It's a site that's used by many critics and awards voters, and it's good to have a presence there, content-wise, if you're trying to promote a project.

It's not like HBO is making her Skype into the opening of a caftan department in a Macy's in Bloomington.

A Macy's in Bloomington would have more activity than Gold Derby.

Some of their videos get like 14 views. Why are you defending it so r35. Are you one of the lame interviewers? Which one. The little Canadian boy with the speech impediment?

Hardly any of the Oscar nominees wasted time there (Frances, Anthony, Viola, G) Leslie Odom did and got 138 views. And he was in Hamilton and has a following.

Atta girl.

Dead husband (if not legally married but still) got Hepburn an Oscar.

Mamie, go check your father's pulse and cancel his vaccine appointment.
