Brunson took this in the process, walking around Kimmel and saying: "Jimmy, wake up, I won. Jimmy?" She added: "Okay, shoot my phone" and placed it on him. Kimmel gave him a boost in response.

Brunson responded to the controversial moment.

After winning his award, Brunson answered questions in the Emmys press room. A journalist asked what she was thinking about Kimmel's joke, while the counterpoup was already on Twitter. As indicated byVariety, theElementary abbotCreator explained that she had no problem with her, because she knows the host of Talk-Show, but she admitted that viewers may not feel the same thing.

"I know Jimmy Kimmel, and I don't know, I felt like the song didn't bother me much. I don't know what Internet thinks," said Brunson.

The 32 -year -old continued: "Jimmy gave me my first big end of evening and was one of the first people to seeAbbott . He sent me a message to Instagram that he had seen this comedy and thought it was one of the biggest comedies of all time and that it was so excited that it would be on ABC. So I think at that time, I was really happy that it was Jimmy up there. I somehow consider him one of the comedy sponsors. I am a big fan of Will Arnett. So, I was wrapped in the moment. Tomorrow, I may be angry with him. I'm going to be on his show on Wednesday, so I could hit him in the face. I do not know. We'll see what happens."

Kimmel himself has not yet commented on the criticisms he faces.
