A third user added: “How do you manage to leave out Kobe Bryant from the In Memoriam while filming at the Staples Center?”
While the NBA legend, who died aged 41 in a helicopter crash in January, was not an actor, he was a mainstay on television.
The Emmys virtual ceremony was held in the Staples Centre, which is home to Byrant’s team, the Los Angeles Lakers.
Fans of the basketball star were previously disappointed when Bryant was excluded from the list of those lost over the past year during the MTV 2020 VMAs in August.
