Critics called out Kimmel at the time, saying he stole Quinta’s big moment. She even joked she might punch him in revenge when she appeared on his show a few days after the awards!

Quinta popped up on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday, where she was scheduled guest on the show, but she showed up a little early, bumping Kimmel from his monologue and stealing back her time!!
