Emmys Host Nate Bargatze Officially Subtracts From Donation to Boys & Girls Club After Long Speech
Nate Bargatze's donation to the Boys and Girls Club could reach $350,000 depending on winners' acceptance speech lengths, with CBS contributing $100,000 to the total amount raised.
- During his opening, Nate Bargatze explained, '`If you stay at 45 seconds, it stays at $100,000`,' to promote a timed charity challenge for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.
- Framed as a gag, the rule aimed to keep the telecast concise, and Bargatze previewed the timing stunt on Jimmy Kimmel Live before Sunday’s broadcast.
- At times the running count plunged into negative territory, dropping to-$26,000 after Katherine LaNasa and Hannah Einbinder reduced it from $106,000; CBS and Nate Bargatze later added $100,000 and $250,000, raising the total to $350,000.
- The ceremony ended three minutes past 11 p.m. ET as Nate Bargatze called the show's financial loss "embarrassing" and closed alongside JB Smoove and four Boys & Girls Clubs of America children.
- Several winners used the telecast for political expression, with Hannah Einbinder shouting 'Free Palestine' and Megan Stalter displaying a 'Cease Fire!' placard, while Film Workers for Palestine proposed a boycott, prompting Paramount's public response.
