Ellen Pompeo was not a fan of Sunday’s Emmy Awards.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” star says she was “really disappointed” in the broadcast.

“I didn’t see any diversity in the Emmys at all. The Emmys felt so dated to me,” Pompeo is quoted by the Associated Press as saying on Monday.

She adds, “That dance number was embarrassing. Did you see one person of color in that dance number?”

By contrast, says the actress, “Grey’s Anatomy” is a more accurate reflection of the world.

“I’m extremely proud of our very, very diverse cast which represents the world that I walk around in every day,” explains Pompeo.
