Yet somehow … year after year … awards show after awards show … theres an In Memoriam mishap.
Except the man they showed onscreen was not Andre Previn.
It wasLeonard Slatkin, another composer, who per his last tweet, is very much alive.
I had the opportunity to introduce him when he received the @KCHonors.
Perhaps he was paying me back for a couple stories I told about him.
Is that so hard, Emmys?
The awards show is certainly not the first offender.
In 2017, the Oscars used a photo of nominee Jan Chapman for the late costume designer Janet Patterson.
But at least that one wasnt set to aHalsey cover of Time After Time.
I saw that@theemmysposted a photo of me “In Memoriam” rather than the intended Andre Previn.
