Emmy had a lot of love for
Jane Lynch this morning, and “The Insider” was happy to share the news with the “Glee” star, who received two nominations: one for “Glee” and one for her guest-starring role on “Two and a Half Men.” “I am very excited to see people like
Jon Hamm and
Tina Fey, because I am a huge fan,” Jane tells
Lara Spencer, when asked who she is looking forward to seeing at the awards show. ”I love everybody on ‘The Office.’ ’30 Rock’ is such a wonderful show. You know who I’d love to see is
Glenn Close from ‘Damages.’ I hope she wins. No offense to the other nominees, but she is just genius. In fact, Glenn Close kind of inspires Sue Sylvester in a way. If you watch the show you will see the subtleties.” And channeling her inner Sue Sylvester, Jane says to the other actresses in her category, “Get ready for a big, humiliating loss fellow nominees.” “Glee” is nominated for 19 Emmys, including Outstanding Lead Actor (
Matthew Morrison), Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (
Lea Michele), Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series (Lynch), Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Comedy Series (
Chris Colfer) and Outstanding Comedy Series. The 2010 Emmy Awards, hosted by “Late Night” host
Jimmy Fallon, will air live from Los Angeles’ Nokia Theater August 29 on NBC.
