Los Angeles, June 17: The 61st Primetime Emmy Awards presentation in Los Angeles has been pushed back a week until Sept. 20, CBS announced Wednesday.
"After we announced plans for Sept. 13, MTV informed us they were locked into the same day for the Video Music Awards, with venue and sponsorship agreements in place. We had the flexibility to move; they didn't," Jack Sussman, executive vice president of specials, music and live events for CBS Entertainment, said in a statement.
