Bill Hader didn't expect to win an Emmy Award so didn't bother writing a speech

Asked if he'd rehearsed a speech, the former 'Saturday Night Live' star said: "No, no, no. But you do kind of think, because I was nominated a couple times for Saturday Night Live, and I thought, 'Well, maybe this is what I'd say or whatever.' But I didn't do that with this because I was like, ‘I’m not going to win,' and then I won, and I have no idea what I said up there."

And Bill recalled his slow reaction when his name was called as the winner of the prestigious award.

He told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It’s bananas... Well, [series co-creator] Alec Berg yelled a giant expletive right in my ear and then I turned and went, ‘Oh, gosh.’

"And something in my brain said, 'You need to stand up,' so I stood up there and hugged the guy from 'Atlanta'. And then, yeah, I went up there.”

The comic is now hoping his award win will help him find love after transitioning from goofy sidekick to leading man.

He quipped: "I'm super single, so, you guys, I'm not - I'm just saying in the world, I’m super single."

Bill was shortlisted for the accolade alongside Larry David for 'Curb Your Enthusiasm', Anthony Anderson for 'Black-ish', 'Shameless' star William H. Macy, 'The Good Place' actor Ted Danson and Donald Glover for 'Atlanta'.
