But let’s be real: Y’all are protecting something that nobody is trying to steal. Don’t nobody want to know about boring Emmy secrets,” said the _Saturday Night Live_ star. “But since you’re good at keeping things safe, I’ve got a job for you: my Twitter account. Put that in the vault, please.” The _Ghostbusters_ actress recently [returned](http://time.com/4418348/leslie-jones-twitter-return/ "undefined") to Twitter after [being hacked](http://time.com/4478982/leslie-jones-tweets-website-hack/ "undefined") and [suffering harassment](http://time.com/4418931/leslie-jones-twitter-harassment-seth-meyers/ "undefined") from [racist trolls](http://time.com/4412232/leslie-jones-ghostbusters-tweets/ "undefined") on the social media site. “Y’all over here using your skills to protect best voiceover in a French sitcom. Meanwhile, I’m butt-naked on CNN. I just wanted to feel beautiful, y’all. Can a sister feel beautiful?” she asked the audience to cheers. > [](https://twitter.com/ditzkoff/status/777675686421168134) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4498789/emmys-2016-leslie-jones/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4498789/emmys-2016-leslie-jones/"},"headline":"Leslie Jones Asks Ernst & Young to Protect Her Twitter Account at the Emmys","datePublished":"2016-09-19T01:44:16.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-25T09:44:45.669Z","description":"\"Since you're good at keeping things safe, I've got a job for you: my Twitter account\"","url":"https://time.com/4498789/emmys-2016-leslie-jones/","keywords":["Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8398770c51fcd97b/6988a690196cf4362403d40e/leslie-jones-facebook.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8398770c51fcd97b/6988a690196cf4362403d40e/leslie-jones-facebook.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"leslie-jones-facebook","caption":"Leslie Jones, right, and accountants from Ernst & Young at the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sept. 18, 2016, in Los Angeles.","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4498789/emmys-2016-leslie-jones/","name":"Leslie Jones Asks Ernst & Young to Protect Her Twitter Account at the Emmys"}}]}] ```
