July 15, (THAINDIAN NEWS) It was a night at the Nokia Theater in downtown Los Angeles when the entertainment and sports fraternity joined together to award the best performers of the sports world. Seth Myers of “Saturday Night Live” hosted the event and he made sure all the celebrity guests were entertained well. The ESPY Award was aired live on ESPN last night at 9 p.m. The evening had fun, entertainment, awards and performances by well known celebrities like “Dancing with the Stars” contestants, Janelle Monae etc.
The host of the show Seth Myers was excited to be a part of the evening. He said that he would include fresh content in his speeches as the tendency of people is to get bored with jokes easily and he said that he would not let this happen to his audience in ESPY Awards 2010. Apart from award giving ceremony there were many jokes cracked with plenty references to Tiger Woods. Even Steve Carrell and Paul Rudd appeared in a taped piece that parodied the interview between LeBron James and Jim Gray which tickled the funny bones of the audience. The first award of the evening was given to Chris Johnson for the Best Record- Breaking performance.
Tennis ace Serena Williams won the award for Best Female Tennis Player, Kobe Bryant of Los Angeles Lakers took home the ward for the Best NBA Player. The Sixth-Straight Best in Sports award went in Roger Federer’s kitty. The Best Golfer award had Phil Mickelson as the winner, The New Orleans Saints were honored for Best Team and the quarterback Drew Brees won the Best Male Athlete, Best Championship Performance and Best NFL Player. Many other awards were distributed as every celebrity went home with a smile on face for being a part of such a lovely evening.
