Andy Samberg wants you to do 2 things: buckle up when riding in a vehicle, and tune in to the 2015 Emmys.
“Buckle your seat belts, Emmy viewers!” advised the “Brooklyn 99′ star. “Like, in general you should buckle your seat belts in your car. In fact, even if you’re not an Emmy viewer, you should buckle your seat belt. It can be dangerous on the road. Also, if you’re not an Emmy viewer, you should strongly consider becoming one this year, because I’m hosting, and it’s gonna be a wild ride. So buckle your seat belts.”;
Both pieces of advice should be heeded — one could save your life while the other could mean the time of your life come September 20 when the live awards show is held.
“The moment the Emmy Awards’ host was brought up, we said it had to be Andy,” said Fox Television Group chairmen and CEOs Gary Newman and Dana Walden. “He is fearless, hilarious, an award-winning comedian, singer, writer and actor with incredible live TV experience. We know he’ll deliver the laughs and give viewers an incredible night they will enjoy.”
Samberg will follow in the footsteps of Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Seth Meyers — “SNL’ alumni who scratched the itch of live television after leaving Studio 8H by hosting an awards show.
