Breaking: Fans Confused by Song Choice for Jelly Roll’s Emmys ‘In Memoriam’ Performance: ‘That Was Weird’…see more
Despite the somewhat fitting nature of the song, some viewers were confused with the choice while others asked why he was the chosen artist as a whole.
“I believe that music is therapeutic. I believe that music can heal. I also believe that storytelling is just as cathartic. I hope this song can act as a healing moment for those who are mourning the storytellers we have lost this year,” he shared.
However, both Perry and Braugher were included in the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards’ In Memoriam segment that aired in January, a fact that others pointed out in corrections issued to X users on the social media platform.
“Sorry, but I think they forgot MATTHEW PERRY,” one person wrote before, minutes later, issuing a clarification: “My mistake, I forgot that in January they had the #Emmys and Matthew Perry appeared in that in memoriam. January was a long time ago.”
“Everyone, Matthew Perry was in the in Memoriam back in January. They didn’t forget him,” another X user reminded viewers.
