LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Kanye West and Taylor Swift may be attempting to put his outburst during her speech at last week's MTV Video Music Awards behind them, but on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards on Sunday night, plenty of stars were still recalling the rapper's big moment.

"I'm sure there will be a lot of Kanye [West] jokes in the opening," "30 Rock" Outstanding Lead Actor nominee Alec Baldwin told E!'s Gulianna Rancic on the red carpet during the cable network's pre-show.

And Alec wasn't the only one with Kanye on the mind.

"I just have to wonder, who's going to pull a Kanye?" Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy nominee Christina Applegate told Ryan Seacrest during E!'s Emmy pre-show.

And "Survivor" host Jeff Probst, whose show kicked off its latest season last week, hinted he might be the one to fit the bill if he loses out for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program.

"If Ryan wins, I'm pulling a Kanye," Jeff said, referring to Seacrest.

And when the show started, host Neil Patrick Harris also brought up Kanye in his opening monologue.

"It's my job to keep things moving. Here's hopin' Kanye West likes '30 Rock,'" Neil said referring to the NBC comedy known for winning awards.

And it was Justin Timberlake who brought Kanye to life on stage, as he accepted a Creative Artist Emmy during the ceremony at the same time as Tina Fey was also honored."Yo T! I'm [going to] let you finish," he said as the audience chuckled. "I'm gonna let you finish anyway."

    Kanye West and his delusional self importance sure did back fire. He is a verifiable ass, just ask the President and now he is the butt of jokes. Karma bites little man.
