Hollywood

Last night's Emmys had the lowest viewer ratings ever. This from The Holywood Reporter :

And the award for lowest-rated Emmys ever goes to ...

ABC's Sunday night telecast.

The three-hour 60th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony received a 3.8 rating/9 share in the preliminary adults 18-49 demo -- the lowest in Nielsen's recorded People Meter history.

That's 12% below last year's previous Emmy record low, a ceremony hosted by Ryan Seacrest on Fox.

This year they didn't have just Ryan Secrest (American Idol, E News Daily). They had Heidi Klum (Project Runway), Jeff Probst (Survivor), Howie Mandel (Deal or No Deal) and Tom Bergeron (Dancing With The Stars). They had 5 friggin' hosts and it still tanked.

By the way : Is it me or does Jeff Probst look like he had (plastic surgery) work done
recently? And what the hell was that about Bergeron dropping poor Heidi Klum on the floor like that? She was a total trooper, I have to say.

Grab your mojitos and Cosmos! We are going to be live-chatting and blogging the Oscars tonight, starting at 8pm EST at Hollywoodistas.com.

I would have loved to launch this blog with a bigger bang. As it is, I am keeping it small and simple since the poor thing has had more false starts than Hugh Hefner without his Viagra.
