Emmy Awards 2009: Who is Going to Pull a Kanye?

The celebrities were all decked out in jewels and pricey fashions as they strolled the red carpet at the 2009 Emmy Awards. White smiles were flashing as much as the cameras flashed to snap pictures of the stars out on a beautiful, warm evening in Los Angeles. Many stars stopped to chat with reporters and Christina Applegate asked the question of the evening: Who is going to pull a Kanye?

Some notable quotes, including the funny one by Christina Applegate on Kanye West, were made on the red carpet at the 2009 Emmy Awards.
