Al Pacino's Fatherly Advice for Mario Lopez

August 30, 2010 Emmys

It was a star-studded backstage at Sunday's Primetime Emmy Awards, and "Extra's" Mario Lopez caught all the actors after their big wins.

Hollywood veteran Al Pacino stopped to chat with Mario after winning Best Actor in a Miniseries for his portrayal of Dr. Jack Kevorkian in "You Don't Know Jack," and he had some words of advice for the expectant dad.

"Congratulations... well, you know to get all the rest you can now," the father of three said. "It's great fun."

Jane Lynch, everyone's favorite "Glee" villain, prepared for her speech by writing down bullet points in case she won.

"I kind of had bullet points of what I was gonna do. I almost went so far as to put them on my hand and then I was afraid of the Sarah Palin comparisons," joked the Best Supporting Actress winner.
