Vanessa Marcil and Ingo Rademacher (Brenda and Jax,
GH) come out to present the award for Best Supporting
Actor. The other nominees include Grant Aleksander (GL),
Michael E. Knight (AMC), Ian Buchanan (B&B) and Scott
Reeves (Y&R). Steve's clip is a scene where Jason says
'goodbye' to Sonny.
Vanessa: "Oh God....And the Emmy goes to....Steve
Burton.
Ingo: "Yes!"
Steve buries his head in his hands momentarily, and he is
crying. He makes his way to the stage. A voice over says
"This is Steve Burton's first nomination and first win for
his role as Jason Morgan on General Hospital. Last year
Steve received a nomination for Outstanding Younger
Actor."
He hugs Vanessa and Ingo, and tries to speak over the
screaming of the crowd.
"Ah...(waving his arms to try and quiet the crowd) Stop!
Shh! Ah, I'd like to thank God, my mom, my dad, my
beautiful fiancee who I love more than anything in the
world, General Hospital, wonderful cast; Sarah Brown,
Kimberly McCullough, Ron Hale, Tony Geary, Maurice Benard;
John Homa, I love you, ABC, Wendy Riche, Elizabeth Courty,
Bob Guza, Mark Teschner, Jeff Ballard, Jim Warren, thank
you, I LOVE YOU!!!"
He raises the Emmy up into the air, and walks off the
stage....visibly moved by the whole thing.
CONGRATULATIONS STEVE!!!!!
