DOWN SHE GOES
E!

Olivia Culpo was so hot on the Emmy Awards red carpet she nearly passed out.

Nick Jonas' ex was doing pre-Emmys coverage with Giuliana Rancic, and when the cameras cut back the Miss USA 2012 was down on the ground. Medics tended to her shortly after.

Culpo blamed it on the weather, saying “OMG it is SO HOT out here. Literally just almost passed out.” Temperatures nearly reached 100 degrees Sunday in downtown LA.

Bad day to be wearing evening gowns and tuxes.

Christina Hendricks and Jerry O'Connell, like most of Hollywood, are on team Hamm and the two think Jon Hamm will finally break his Emmy curse this Sunday.

Hamm has been nominated for an Emmy 16 times total, this will be his 8th nomination for "Mad Men" ... but he has never taken home the prize. However, history doesn't seem to matter with O'Connell who told our photog Hamm will break the streak.

Jon will have three chances to win on Sunday, he's nominated for lead actor in a drama series, guest actor on "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" and he could win as a producer for "Mad Men."

Gotta hand it to Karrueche Tran ... girl dreams big -- on the heels of getting a tiny taste of Hollywood's award season she's already eyeing an Oscar-winning career.

Karrueche was leaving a party for "The Bay" -- the online soap opera she's on, which just got a Daytime Emmy nomination -- and we asked where she saw her career going.

KT replied, "I wanna be like Halle Berry."

Mind you, Karrueche did NOT get an Emmy nomination, only the show did -- still that's not stopping her from aiming high. And this is weird ... but Karrueche's not even sure Halle's her fave actress.

Check out who's in the running.

Bryan Cranston Neighbors Are the Ones Who Knock To Say Congrats on Emmy

Bryan Cranston is beloved by all his neighbors for playing a horrifying villain, and they let him know it by decorating the front of his house after his Emmy win.

After Bryan won for Best Actor ... the "Breaking Bad" star returned home to find balloons tied to his fencing and a handwritten note congratulating him.

But the thing is ... the note looks like it was written by neighborhood kids -- and we all know ... "Breaking Bad" is NOT fun family viewing.

Maybe they're just "Malcolm in the Middle" fans.

Chris Bosh Photobombs McConaughey On Emmys Red Carpet

Chris Bosh has struck again.

For some reason (we're still trying to figure this out) the Heat star decided to attend the Emmys with his wife last night ... and decided to amuse himself by photobombing one of the most famous actors in the world, Matt McConaughey.

Of course, Bosh is somewhat of a photobombing pro ... the guy targeted teammates during post-game interviews almost every week last season.

But don't worry, Bosh showed off his fancy side too -- showing off his white jacket (with a white Rolls to match) before the awards.

Ballin'.

Paula Patton Now Accepting Applications

A freshly single Paula Patton re-emerged back out on the scene Monday night, hitting up Craig's in West Hollywood for a post-Emmys bash ... the first time she's been seen out since her break-up from Robin Thicke.

Don't get it twisted, just because she's single ... it doesn't mean you have a chance.

Sarah Silverman Yeah, I Got High AFTER the Emmys

0-e1m64mvm

Sarah Silverman brought weed with her to the Emmys, but that doesn't mean she was high during the show. Now LATER in the evening is a whole other story ...

On her way into the big event, Sarah showed off her pot vapor pen and when she won an award ... people thought her speech was a little all over the place.

But after the show, Sarah told our photog she didn't smoke before or during the show ... but planned on celebrating with it later on.

Cause that's what winners do.

Jimmy Fallon Kanyes Colbert's Emmy Speech

0-4jfv4bn5

Jimmy Fallon just hijacked Stephen Colbert's Emmy awards acceptance speech -- and it was either the first shot in a new late night war ... or a totally planned bit.

0-4jfv4bn5

Colbert's crew won for 'Outstanding Writing in a Variety Series' ... and after Gwen Stefani butchered Colbert's name, Fallon ran up on stage trying to deliver his own acceptance speech.

Colbert's reaction is pretty funny -- especially considering he's taking over for David Letterman on CBS when he retires ... and he'll be battling Fallon for ratings.

Of course it might have all been scripted.

Aaron Paul After 'Breaking Bad' ... My Career's Over, Bitch!

0-3ilme15l

Aaron Paul told us the biggest casualty of the "Breaking Bad" finale, could be -- no spoiler alert necessary -- his career!

Last night we asked Aaron -- who's won 2 Emmys for playing Jesse Pinkman -- if he was concerned about getting typecast ... or if he'd ever have another role as good as this one, and he said ... "My career is downhill from here. We all know it!"

Hard to tell if he's joking ... or if he's just grown comfortable with the possibility his career really is ruined.

Aaron does tell us he thinks one aspect of his Jesse character will live on ... for better or worse.

Still, we gotta ask ...

FYI, Dreamworks just released the trailer for Aaron's new movie "Need for Speed."

'House of Cards' Star 'Nobody Cares' About the Emmys

0-hm4j296f

Corey Stoll from "House of Cards" deserves a trophy for saying what most of Hollywood probably thinks, but is too afraid to say -- Emmys are nothing more than giant paper weights.

Corey was brutally honest -- outside an Emmy party last night -- when we asked if he was pissed he didn't even get a nomination for his role as coke and hooker loving Congressman Peter Russo.

His reply ... "Oh, no. Nobody cares about that stuff."

Spoiler alert: Corey also talks a little about his character's fate on the Netflix show.

So, if Corey's telling the truth about the Emmys -- gotta respect his honesty.

Still, we gotta ask ...

Jane Lynch Delivers Warts & All Tribute to Cory Klugman's Son Be Damned

0-sim18gil

Jane Lynch just delivered a powerful tribute at the Emmys for her "Glee" costar Cory Monteith ... that definitely won't make Jack Klugman's son feel any better.

Jane pulled no punches during the speech ... reminding the audience Cory "wasn't perfect" -- and referred to his death as a reminder of the dangers of addiction.

Klugman's son felt the Emmys dissed his father by choosing to pay special tribute to Cory ... whose death he called a "self-induced tragedy."

Klugman's death was acknowledged later in the show during a montage.

Michael Douglas Matt, Give Me a Hand with My Giant ...

0-l7dhr72q

And the Emmy for Outstanding Use of Sexual Innuendo goes to ... Michael Douglas ... who whipped out a penis joke, and a gay sex reference during his acceptance speech.

Douglas won the trophy for his role as Liberace in "Behind the Candelabra" ... which co-starred Matt Damon as Lib's lover, Scott Thorson.

As he held up the Emmy statue, Douglas motioned to Matt, and said ... "You really deserve half of this. So, do you want the bottom or the top?"

The crowd loved it. Check the clip for Michael's meaty double entendre ... about his penis size.

Also interesting: Michael's still wearing his wedding ring, and even thanked Catherine Zeta-Jones.

65th Annual Emmy Awards HITS, RUNS AND ERRORS!

Jane Lynch 'I'd Be Angry Too' Over Klugman Diss

0-82b160ze

Jane Lynch was shockingly candid today when we asked her how she felt about her "Glee" co-star Cory Monteith getting a special tribute while TV icon Jack Klugman is getting the bum's rush.

Jane was locked and loaded when we approached her ... and had clearly thought it through before she left home for Kings Road Cafe.

It seems Jane fully understands why Jack Klugman's son is so pissed.

Emmy Winner Peter MacNicol Cory Tribute is Great ... For Drug Awareness

Emmy winner Peter MacNicol is not buying what Jack Klugman's angry son is selling because Peter thinks the tribute to Cory Monteith could actually save lives.

MacNicol -- who won an Emmy for "Ally McBeal" and also starred in classics like "Ghostbusters II" and "Sophie's Choice" -- tells TMZ tonight's tribute to Cory will create enormous drug awareness and possibly reach thousands of teens on a path of destruction.

Peter doesn't think it matters that Cory died without a single Emmy. He says, "If we are going to get into a merit system based on longevity then we are in trouble."

Tell that to Adam Klugman -- who is furious that his 3-time Emmy winning deceased father is barely getting a mention at tonight's ceremony.

But MacNicol says, "The memoriam is not only to honor those who completed a full marathon."
