You stay elegant, Will Ferrell. The funnyman — and dad of three! — took to the stage to close out the Emmys on Sunday, Sept. 22, and taken out the greatest laughs of the night time from the audience by way of trekking onstage in not anything however an previous T-shirt, shorts and sandals.

"It is indeed an honor to be presenting the last two awards of the evening: best comedy series and best drama series," he started his speech as his three sons with spouse Viveca Paulin — Magnus, 9, Mattias, 6, and Axel, 3 — stood by means of dad in football uniforms and sneakers. Axel wore rainboots and clung onto an outsized blanket.

"What? No, you cannot play Angry Birds right now," he admonished Magnus as the target market cracked up. A pan to Tina Fey showed the comedienne doubling over in laughter. 

Ferrell, 46, jokingly defined that Helen Mirren and Maggie Smith had dropped out of their presenting duties "literally 45 minutes ago" and the actor had to convey the kids along as a result of he "couldn't find child care, OK?"

You have effectively subscribed.

"We had a soccer game, there was a neighbor's birthday party, a nut allergy," he listed off. "I didn't have time to do my hair! It doesn't matter, it's great to be here."

After presenting the absolute best comedy series to Modern Family — writer Steven Levitan referred to as the win "surreal" — Ferrell went again to scolding his sons earlier than presenting the last award of the night time.

"You have to go to the bathroom?! I asked you backstage if you had to go to the bathroom," he stated. "So you're just going to have to hold it. This is the Emmys. Don't blow this for me!"
