Terrifically entertaining show leaving every other award show (except the always classy BAFTAs)in the dust.
Harris (and whoever writes for him) gets better every year.

I love how she made a reference to her “afro puffs” and how she just couldn’t believe “this community” accepted her after all. All the while her half black daughter (who looks more Mexican than black) and her white husband were adoringly staring at her.
When minorities who act like they are down for the people (their communities) and in the mean time have sold out and went white(white spouses and half white kids)I see NOTHING but fakers and Bull..it 🙁
