Keith Stanfield’s Kanye West moment was so unexpected that it left the “Silicon Valley” cast at a loss for words.
US Weekly writes:
What just happened? Silicon Valley received the Best Comedy Series award at the 2017 Critics’ Choice Awards in Santa Monica on Sunday, December 11 — and the HBO show’s producer Tom Lassally totally got Kanye’d before his acceptance speech.
After Leslie Mann and Christian Slater announced that Silicon Valley won the award, Atlanta star Keith Stanfield stood up from his seat and made his way to the stage. “I want to thank everybody for, um, honoring us in this way. We worked very hard on Silicon Valley and here we are. Thank you,” he said to the audience before walking off stage.

lmao love this dude
I think he did it because he knows Atlanta should have won. And he’s right.
So basically, he really is Darius and not acting.
LMAo ever since he was on the BC I liked this dude even more
Hilarious. Atlanta should have won though.
Too funny.
Love Silicon Valley, never watched Atlanta but now I’m definitely gonna go have a binge night.
