The crowd erupted into laughter at the actor’s perfectly timed joke as he then went on to talk about how the wig was the perfect prop for birth control.
He added: ‘What we do is important; to all of you out there in motion pictures and television, don’t stop doing what you’re doing, the audience is counting on you.’
Baldwin beat out Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’s Titus Burgess, Baskets’ Louis Anderson, Modern Family’s Ty Burrell, and Veep’s Tony Hale and Matt Walsh.

Emmy host Stephen Colbert had already jokingly scolded Emmy voters for not giving Trump an Emmy for ‘The Apprentice,’ posing that maybe if he own an Emmy he wouldn’t have run for President.
‘I thought you guys loved morally compromised antiheroes,’ he said of Trump, then called him ‘Walter Whiter,’ the ‘Breaking Bad’ character who won several Emmys for Bryan Cranston.
He also hilariously noted: ‘Unlike the presidency, Emmys go to the winner of the popular vote.’
