Emmy Awards 2019 Michelle Williams at the Emmys: Best Speech, Best Friend I’m trying to spell out the sound I made, several times, during Michelle Williams’s acceptance speech last night at the Emmys for her performance in Fosse/Verdon. Like… “ooooffff”. Like someone’s hit you in the stomach. Like you’re exhaling while doubling over. Not that she meant By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 09:25 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Kerry Washington & Viola Davis: Black and White at the Emmys Let’s start with Kerry Washington because sometimes, with some outfits, they can do 90% of the work on their own. And with other outfits, it all depends on the person to sell the sh-t out of it. This is what Kerry Washington did last night on the Emmys red By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 08:30 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Bill Hader vs. Barry I’m willing to bet that, of all the suddenly-must-see shows that came onto your radar around Emmy nomination time if they weren’t there already, Barry is the one that you’ve seen. It seems deceptively easy to get into – Bill Hader, Henry Winkler, it’s only a half-hour, By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 08:02 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Jharrel Jerome: The Youngest and the Only There were three Oscar winners nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie category. The other two have won SAG Awards and Golden Globes. Last night it was Jharrel Jerome who won the Emmy, making history, at 21 years old, as the youngest to win the category.

Emmy Awards 2019 Ava Duvernay Carpet Chills With Exonerated Five at the Emmys Here is what I do not understand about Ava Duvernay. She shows up to every awards show, because she always has something excellent and nomination-worthy going on, not just because she wants to party. That in itself is something to be amazed by. Then, of course, there’s the fact By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 06:53 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Amy Adams trends at her first Emmys I didn’t actually know that last night was Amy Adams’s first Emmys. Because we see Amy Adams so often at award shows. She’s often at the Golden Globes. She’s often at the SAGs and the BAFTAs. She’s been Oscar-nominated six times. SIX! This is why By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 06:39 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Laverne Cox: Emmy Icon Let’s review. What have I said is my number-one requirement for people attending awards shows? You have to act like you’re having fun! I know it’s a pain to get ready. I know it’s tense to find out whether you’re going to win in your By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 05:54 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Angela Bassett: Emmys Best Red As Duana just mentioned in the previous post, there were a lot of pink and red dress combinations on the Emmys red carpet last night. There was, however, a standout all red outfit that deserves its own spotlight. And the wearer, always, deserves her own spotlight: Angela Bassett. MY GOD. By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 05:35 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Mandy Moore and The Hot Pink Ladies at the Emmys It’s impossible to deny that Mandy Moore is having a comeback within her comeback, right? The success and attention of This Is Us seems to have launched a whole new aspect of her personality. Am I wrong? I look at shots like this: And I think, this isn’t By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 05:22 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Julia Louis-Dreyfus Is Her Own Torch The Emmys are getting more and more fractured, in a way I can only see as (mostly) good. It’s almost never the case that the winner of any given award is everyone’s favourite, or that so-and-so was ‘robbed’, because everything is definitively excellent. But it doesn’t stop By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 04:44 am
Emmy Awards 2019 ‘Good’ and Hot at the Emmys Apparently it was super-sweaty in LA yesterday, so everyone who looked amazing on the red carpet deserves double the acclaim for doing so in the sweltering heat. This goes double for the men, because the one way I will say women have a not-insignificant advantage is wearing a gown that’ By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 03:31 am
Game of Thrones Emmys 2019: Game of Thrones and a great soundtrack When we were prepping for coverage last week ahead of the Emmys, one of the possible conversation points was how it would be without a host. The Oscars didn’t have a host. The Emmys have gone host-less before, and they addressed it off the top in a bit that By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 02:37 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Intro for September 23, 2019 Dear Gossips, Billy Porter made history last night at the Emmys as the first openly gay black man to win Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his role in Pose.

What Else What Else? HEADS UP! Emmys on Sunday! Duana and I will be tweeting through the broadcast, then writing all night to roll out our Emmys coverage after the show. First post will likely go up by 2am ET and we’ll keep at it through the morning on Monday and into the By Lainey • Sep 20, 2019 04:41 pm
Name Nerd Duana Names: When Names Hurt Hi Duana, I apologize in advance if something like this has already been asked... I have a two-year-old boy. One of my best friends who lives in another country far, far away has a three year old daughter. He just welcomed a second child and named him the same name By Duana • Sep 20, 2019 04:28 pm
