Luvsbway Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Shirley Maclaine presents Lucy with an honor on her 30th year in TV on the Emmy Awards in 1981. I think that standing ovation did Lucy in, she got some emotional. And Shirley's little hug is cute. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mot Morenzi Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Thank you for sharing this! I got a bit teary at the standing ovation (this was back when they actually meant something). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie2 Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 That's so sweet! I wonder what the plaque said. If ever there was a time to reunite her on stage with Desi... but I digress. The gown she "sprung for" certainly doesn't pair well with VHS quality. I was going cross-eyed just trying to figure out what color it was Do we know what award she presented? After all that hoopla, I certainly hope it was a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryCarter Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Lucy presented the Outstanding Comedy award to Taxi. Producer Ed. Weinberger made special mention of Lucy in his speech. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great as she looked that night, this pic makes her look a little ..."puffy" in the face, for lack of a better word. Gotta show off the gams! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted October 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2018 Sadly you don't see that on the awards, but love Shirley mentioned Lucy's legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shirley calling her "My Gypsy" was really nice also. The whole thing was just so heartwarming. That photo (I'm assuming taken in a press area), really makes it look like Lucy is in some sort of glamorous police lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 Never got why this award isn't mentioned in her list of Emmy wins. This is a rare occurrence to have a special award like this right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a rare occurrence to have a special award like this right? Probably because it's not a win. It's a special honor. The Governor's Award she got in 1989 technically isn't a win either as that was an honor but it's the same statue for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 Yet they always list the Governor Award saying she won 5 Emmys but this honor kind of makes 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
