The entertainment held one of their dozens of awards shows congratulating themselves for being awesome on Sunday. The 73rd Emmy Awards was held in a giant tent in Los Angeles where the rich and famous hobnobbed completely maskless. Los Angeles does have a mask mandate but apparently that’s just for the regular folks.
We’ve all seen videos of teachers forcing little kids to wear masks in school and asthmatic toddlers getting kicked off of planes for not wearing them. We are told this is necessary and based science to keep the COVID-19 virus from spreading.
As Fox News reports, the Emmys is such an important event that COVID-19 cannot be spread among celebrities:
The Emmys were skewered on social media as viewers took notice of the lack of coronavirus safety measures, specifically masks.
The 2021 awards show was one of the first to return to the typical in-person format following more than a year of delayed and adjusted ceremonies like the Oscars and Golden Globes. Few of the stars in attendance on Sunday were seen on the broadcast wearing masks or observing social distancing guidelines.
Only liberal stonier dipshit Seth Rogan called out Hollywood for this hypocrisy:
“Let me start by saying: there’s way too many of us in this little room. What are we doing? They said this was outdoors—it’s not! They lied to us. We’re in a hermetically-sealed tent right now. I would not have come to this. Why is there a roof? It’s more important that we have three chandeliers than that we make sure we don’t kill Eugene Levy tonight,” said Rogan as he presented an award.
“This is insane. I went from wiping my groceries to having Paul Bettany sneeze in my face—so, that’s a big week,” Rogen concluded.
It should be noted that Rogen was not wearing a mask, but did show up dressed as Velma from Scooby Doo:

Rogan’s outrage on the lack of safety protocols was as hollow as his head but he did solve the Mystery of the Haunted Hemp Fram so let’s not judge him too harshly.
It should also be noted that Los Angeles, where the Emmys took place, has a strict indoor mask mandate. That mask mandate extends to any large gathering, indoors or out, which the Emmy Awards qualifies as.
Speaking of Los Angeles, here’s LA Mayor Eric Garcetti inside Sofi Stadium, home of the LA Rams, not wearing a mask with Magic Johnson and other rich guys:

Yes, Sofi Stadium is in Los Angeles County and no, those guys are not following the rules.
I live near an elementary school in Los Angeles County and every morning I see miserable little kids being forced to wear masks on their way to class. 12 miles away at the Emmys, celebrities were yucking it up, kissing, and hugging while wearing no masks. Where’s the science behind this bullshit double standard?
If the rich and famous were given a special vaccine that prevents them from contracting or spreading COVID-19, they should tell us because otherwise they look like anti-science assholes.
