John Oliver cursed at the Emmys 2024 when his acceptance speech about his dead dog got cut short.
John Oliver doesn’t like to be silenced.
The comedian, 47, cursed during his acceptance speech when “Last Week Tonight With John Oliver” won Outstanding Scripted Variety Series at the Emmys 2024 on Sunday night.
Oliver’s speech got cut off as he began to talk about his dog that died.
“I also want to thank — this is going to be very silly — our dog,” he said on stage. “We had the most fantastic dog. She was at our wedding and she got us through the pandemic. She was with us through the two pregnancies.”
As the “get-off-stage” instrumental music played out loud, Oliver said, “Perfect choice of music. We had to say goodbye to her.”
The late-night host then yelled out, “F – – k you!”
“I feel like Sarah McLachlan right now,” Oliver joked.
