"From Controversy to Honor: Maury Povich Receives Daytime Emmys' Lifetime Achievement Award"

Maury Povich, known for hosting the controversial talk show "Maury," is set to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Daytime Emmys. Povich, who initially thought it was a prank, spent 31 years hosting the show, which gained popularity for its "Who's the Daddy?" segment featuring live paternity tests. Despite criticism, Povich believes the show helped bring fathers closer to their children. The award will be presented by his wife, journalist Connie Chung, during the 50th Annual Daytime Emmys festivities. Povich plans to deliver a "stream of consciousness" speech and is rooting for Karamo Brown, who took over the show.
