Passionistas On the Red Carpet with Dr. Death

Emmy day was not all glitz and glam. In fact, we had one of the strangest encounters we’ll probably ever have in our lives. We met, and actually shook hands with, Dr. Death himself, Jack Kevorkian.

For those who couldn’t imagine why the famed face of euthanasia was at TV’s biggest event, you obviously didn’t catch the recent small screen film, You Don’t Know Jack.
