Q: The orchestra cut off Markéta Irglová before she uttered a single word of her acceptance speech. Was it Jon Stewart's idea to bring her back on stage after the commercial break?

A: Nope, that was all the doing of the show's exec producer Gilbert Cates, who wanted to give the gal her time to shine. ''As soon as she was played off, I realized it was not nice, and immediately called Jon Stewart,'' says Cates. Her return to the mic was a first. Markéta, you must be chuffed!
