Asked following Sunday night’s Emmy Awards if he had considered the negative reactions that might follow his cameo appearance during Stephen Colbert’s opening monologue, Sean Spicer replied, “Not so much.”  The former White House press secretary told The Hollywood Reporter, “I was more worried about the logistical reactions,” he said. “I’ve never wheeled a podium before. The one I’m used to is pretty stationary.” Calling the chance to appear on the Emmys stage “an honor,” Spicer said Colbert “came up with a concept” and he “thought it was kinda funny” so he decided to do it. Spicer was spotted snapping selfies with celebrities at the Governors Ball afterparty later Sunday night.
