My daughter wakes up and insists that she wants a waffle. My wife and I reflect on what was an incredible evening and how lucky we were to have been a part of it. Outside, Bryan Cranston hands me his valet ticket and says, “It’s the Jag.” 12:20am It really isn’t TV! They have a cupcake tower at the HBO party! 11:49pm It’s at this moment that I think to myself that I may have actually won tonight.Īt the FOX party I run into Ryan Murphy and tell him about the Reese Witherspoon movie.
MAX GREENFIELD FREE
I am told that the pretzel rolls are free and that I can have as many as I want. I am shuffled off to the Governors Ball, the first after party of the evening. 5:09pm-8pmīlah, Blah, Homeland, Blah, Blah, I MEET BILL HADER! Blah, Blah, Blah the show ends. I lose to Eric Stonestreet in the category of “Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy.” My mother was right, sigh. They won’t stop talking about Clive Owen who’s sitting in the next section over. I arrive at my seat only to find that I am sitting between the lovely Lena Dunham and Zooey Deschanel. They won’t stop talking about Clive Owen… 4:30pm I am sitting between the lovely Lena Dunham and Zooey Deschanel. I don’t want people to think of me as a hero, though. I think to myself that if I win tonight I will shine a light on this injustice while on stage.
Men’s fashion takes a real back seat to women’s at these events. 3pm:Īfter 45 minutes on the red carpet, I am finally asked who I am wearing (Brooks Brothers Black Fleece). It’s nice to know that Danny has more faith in me than my mother. My limo driver, Danny, tells me that he’s never seen the show before but thinks that I will win. 12:15pmīefore we get into the limo I watch a YouTube video of Gwyneth Paltrow winning the Oscar for her performance in Shakespeare in Love to remind me what grace looks like.
MAX GREENFIELD MOVIE
This movie will make millions of dollars.
MAX GREENFIELD ZIP
I start jotting down notes for a ROM COM in which the “forever-unlucky-in-love” Reese Witherspoon turns to her best friend played by Mark Ruffalo in a moment of vulnerability and says, “I just want to find somebody who will zip up the back of my dress.” Mark’s character is not ready to admit it but he wishes that guy was him. I wonder how she would ever do this without me. 10:15amĪs my wife gets ready she asks me to zip up the back of her dress. I work harder on the hills when I’m emotional. I’m happy they play a Florence and the Machine song on the first climb.
MAX GREENFIELD FULL
I receive a loving text message from my mother: “No matter what happens today you’ve already won.” I text back, “So you think I’m going to lose?” My mother texts back, “Eric Stonestreet is the full package.” 9am And as the evening drew to a close and I unbuttoned the top two buttons of my shirt and let my untied grosgrain bowtie hang loose, it was a celebration and tribute to the many moments over the past several years of Tom Ford-itude. My pearl cufflinks, a celebration of my wife’s shining grace, which, at times, just like the cufflinks, bonded us together. My diagonal striped suspenders a celebration of those who held me up when I needed it most. My Emmy night was a celebration of that journey. Pursuing one’s dreams is never easy and is a journey often met with hardship and disappointment. Big ups to Brooks Brothers, King Thom, and as always, Brooklyn!įor as long as I can remember, being a working actor has been a dream of mine. Thom Browne is a men’s fashion King and the tuxedo was magnificent. I was outfitted with a custom tux from Brooks Brothers Black Fleece Label.īlack Fleece is a collaboration between Brooks Brothers and one of my all time favorites, the great Thom Browne. On the evening of the Emmys I did not have the honor of wearing Tom Ford, however I was thinking about him. The artist Michelangelo once said, “My only regret in life is not dressing the statue of David in a Tom Ford suit.” Poor Michelangelo took that one to his grave and left us all to ponder, what if? But before that wave overtook my entire being, before it flooded my body and filled my heart, I rushed to the phone, emailed my publicist, and told them to immediately contact Tom Ford. Upon hearing the news of the nomination I was hit by a tidal wave of both love and gratitude. This year, I was nominated for an Emmy Award. Two years ago, I was unemployed, my wife and I had just welcomed our daughter Lilly into our lives, and I was convinced that my dreams of being an actor were quickly becoming a fading fantasy. In case you don’t know who I am, my name is Max Greenfield and I play the role of Schmidt on the television show, New Girl. So, I have the distinct pleasure of bringing you a piece by sometimes guest editor, Max Greenfield, probably my favorite actor on television.Īlso, I just donated to the red cross for flood relief, you may want to think about it if you haven’t already. This week, we need something to cheer us up.
