The Sopranos star Michael Imperioli reveals the story of throwing his Emmy award in the trash.
✖ Though his career started before his appearance on the hit HBO series, actor Michael Imperioli is best known for his role of Christopher Moltisanti on The Sopranos.
Speaking in a new interview with Noisey, Imperioli was asked which of the other awards in an EGOT was he closest to achieving next, prompting the tale of his Emmy taking a dive into the bin."I don't give a sh-t. Those are good for business those things, that's really what they're good for because you know it'll give you opportunity.
He continued,"That night I won, my wife and I go to bed she says 'You know you think you're a really big deal with this Emmy,' and then she goes 'I am not impressed' and she said 'And if you had any balls you'd take that Emmy and throw it right in the garbage.' The booze had been flowing, I took that Emmy threw it in the garbage.
Imperioli reprised his role of Christopher Moltisanti in voice only for last year's The Many Saints of Newark, a prequel feature film to The Sopranos.
