"And by the way, sincere apologies to @ibjade the envelope we gave her was incorrectly printed. Our fault not hers."

For those who didn't watch the show last night here is the Youtube link to all the Jade performances, including the awkward burn on Jack Bauer, i mean, Kiefer Sutherland.

[xxracerxx]

Picture of said envelope?

 

[ebullientprism]

Someone clue me in on what happened?

 

[Dicer]

 

[WaterAstro]

She still has the best shots fired of the night.

 

[fastmower]

That's a pretty big mistake for an awards show.

 

[mrmickfran]

They wait until 12 hours after the show to tell us that.

Damage already done.

 

[borghe]

I am shocked. Because perfectly reasonable and decent people on this board were positive she was an incompetent, intoxicated, [insert misogynistic noun here].


......

I thought this would have been MORE THAN obvious last night.....

They wait until 12 hours after the show to tell us that.

Damage already done.

because for the first 12 hours they assumed people would resort to some sort of common sense. obviously they assumed wrong.

 

[IvanJ]

Nevermind, I didn't watch the show so I was out if the loop.

 

[5amshift]

How does somebody mess that up?

 

[kami_sama]

Even if Jade Raymond were drunk (she most definitely was), it was clear there was some sort of error in the envelope.

 

[sixteen-bit]

She still has the best shots fired of the night.

Shade Raymond

 

[maquiladora]

Huh?

 

[backflip10019]

Is there video of this somewhere? I missed it (was watching Nathan for You).

 

[FluxWaveZ]

They wait until 12 hours after the show to tell us that.

Damage already done.

What damage? Internet people impulsively yelling with their keyboards?

 

[Fhtagn]

It was so obvious she realized the card was misprinted immediately after reading it out loud that I would have a hard time believing otherwise.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Receipts?

Was the kiefer burn on the TelePrompTer? #shaderaymond

 

[Dragon]

I am shocked. Because perfectly reasonable and decent people on this board were positive she was an incompetent, intoxicated, [insert misogynistic noun here].


......

I thought this would have been MORE THAN obvious last night.....

You don't think she was intoxicated at all?

 

[Nino]

Is it about this David Hayter comment? Cuz I dont think the wrong envelope excuse works there

Damage? lmao

 

[BadWolf]

It's no big deal either way, anyone can make a mistake.

 

[Teggy]

"However, she was still three sheets to the wind and we take no responsibility for that Keifer abuse. "

 

[LiK]

kinda expected this was the cause

 

[BronsonLee]

Kiefer got her back
NANOMACHINES, SON

Spoiler

It was obvious it was misprinted, she realized it immediately after she said it

 

[Corpekata]

Is it about this David Hayter comment? Cuz I dont think the wrong envelope excuse works there

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBx2BTYs6h8

No? Because that didn't involve an envelope.

 

[TurboButts]

I mean, that's what I thought as soon as she spoke. Sounded like she was just reading from the envelope and caught herself at the end and was like "huh"

Weird mistake.

 

[Certinty]

Fair enough if true but the comment about Snake without David Hayter was uncalled for, especially with Sutherland there.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

It was also his fault she was drunk for providing all the free drinks

 

[injurai]

What had happened? I didn't catch this bit of the show.

 

[Backfoggen]

Well, obviously.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

of course

 

[Head.spawn]

It's about the award she actually announced for.

"Witcher 3..?"

 

[katagai]

Someone clue me in on what happened?

When Jade Raymond announced the winner of the (I think) Best Performance Award, the card she read said "Viva Seifert, Witcher 3" instead of "Viva Seifert, Her Story"

 

[Fhtagn]

Also can't believe people think the Hayter stuff was an ad lib or getting offended by it. All award shows have shitty joke set ups like that one and why would someone go off script while also delivering a perfect award ceremony style corny zinger?

 

[borghe]

You don't think she was intoxicated at all?

regardless of her condition or nerves... clearly it was misprinted.. with her saying "wait what?" immediately after. I don't know how any reasonable person could assume that she just completely botched it. When people botch stuff, their reaction is embarrassment or foolishness, not confusion.

Fair enough if true but the comment about Snake without David Hayter was uncalled for, especially with Sutherland there.

you could tell this was scripted. She literally read this off of a teleprompter and delivered it as such. Blame the writers for this, not her.

 

[SJRB]

So can anyone explain what actually happened and what was supposed to happen?

Edit: never mind, answered.

 

[Jigorath]

Well of course it was. Why would she say a completely different game than the one she's reading on the envelope.

 

[RipperGrim]

Heh wrong issue.

 

[Krappadizzle]

That's what I thought when it happened. Good on them for clearing that up I guess. Some people were really soured by her presentation of that award.

 

[Nino]

It's about the award she actually announced for.

"Witcher 3..?"

Ahhh, right on. Video?

 

[Dragon]

Who knows if it was off script. She was obviously drunk. It's not exactly a conspiracy theory I mean Mark Hamill was three sheets to the wind too.

 

[EventHorizon]

Someone clue me in on what happened?

Not sure, but I assume it is this:

Edit: Nevermind

 

[SmackAttack]

Someone clue me in on what happened?

It was the award for Best Performance. She read the VA for Geralt in Witcher 3 when really the woman from Her Story won.

 

[Morts]

This was pretty obvious. And I took the Hayter comment as some playful ribbing that didn't land. It was pretty gross how a lot of people here jumped all over her.

 

[Adaren]

It was supposed to be Bloodborne all along.

 

[BronsonLee]

This was pretty obvious. And I took the Hayter comment as some playful ribbing that didn't land. It was pretty gross how a lot of people here jumped all over her.

Oh it landed

 

[Exr]

The amount of uppity posters was rad, there should be a hallf of shame.

 

[Einchy]

I am shocked. Because perfectly reasonable and decent people on this board were positive she was an incompetent, intoxicated, [insert misogynistic noun here].

Dude, she looked drunk as fuck.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DBWVBz3d24

You can chalk it up to all the misogynists here on Gaf but it was pretty apparent that she wasn't all there as soon as she started talking. Then she threw shade at Keifer out of nowhere and then it seemed like she fumbled reading the envelope.

It's no surprise that people thought she was drunk.

 

[A Dead Diehard]

Makes sense. She looked baffled when she read out Witcher 3.

 

[jackissocool]

That was what I thought had happened. I was confused when people were ragging on her Carter she clearly knew that wasn't right.
