Summary
Ah, 2010, a simpler time...when Glee was one of the most popular shows on television, streaming platforms didn't yet produce original content, and Jimmy Fallon opened the Emmy Awards with a raucous rendition of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run."That aforementioned Glee cast joined Fallon on his last chance power drive, with the late Cory Monteith, Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, Amber Riley, and Jane Lynch taking part in the musical opening alongside the likes of Tina Fey, Jon Hamm, and Betty White. You go, 'Okay, you could screw up the whole thing right here.' But we didn't."10 years later, it still remains one of the most inventive and fun Emmys openings of the 21st century."A lot of the time people are just like, 'I can't believe Bruce Springsteen let you use his song and sing it,'" Fallon concludes.
