Popsugar Celebrity Award Season Glenn Weiss Proposing During Emmy Awards Acceptance Speech UMMM . . . An Emmy Award Winner Proposed Marriage During His Acceptance Speech 20 September 2018 by Ryan Roschke Image Source: Getty / Kevin Winter Monday night's Emmy Awards took a sharp left turn when Glenn Weiss, who was nominated for his direction at the 2018 Oscars, proposed in the middle of his acceptance speech. While speaking on stage, Glenn turned to his girlfriend and said, "Jan, you are the sunshine of my life, and Mom was right: don't ever let go of your sunshine. You wonder why I don't like to call you my girlfriend? Because I want to call you my wife." Glenn then proceeded to invite her onstage for the big moment, offering the ring his father used to propose to his mother. We've already got a small clip of the moment below (plus some reactions)! Check it out and try not to cry. And the award for first (and best) proposal at the #Emmys goes to! pic.twitter.com/SRXxlBpuoW— IGN (@IGN) September 18, 2018 1 / 19 Now what does it say that The unscripted thing (marriage proposal)has been the best moment yet at an Awards show for TV shows🤷🏽 #EmmyAwards #Emmys #EmmysSoBoring— DearionLynn is ONE☝ (@LynnDearion) September 18, 2018 2 / 19 Now what does it say that The unscripted thing (marriage proposal)has been the best moment yet at an Awards show for TV shows🤷🏽 #EmmyAwards #Emmys #EmmysSoBoring— DearionLynn is ONE☝ (@LynnDearion) September 18, 2018 3 / 19 Proposal at the #EmmyAwards - TOP THAT!
