Bad Style Emilia Clarke: Emmys Worst Outfit (Duana) To me, the question is always “what was it supposed to look like?” What was the style inspiration? Usually we don’t know for a few days until an exhausted stylist gives an interview (if the look went well) or not – but Emilia Clarke had a definite look in mind, By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 12:31 pm
Emmy Awards 2019 Phoebe Waller-Bridge: Emmys in the Fleabag Leave me alone about the title, I’m on no sleep. But also, the only other title that would be appropriate here is one you saw all over social media or your group chats last night: “PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE!!EEEEEEE!!!!” Her sweep last night took us all so by surprise By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 11:51 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Jodie Comer & Sandra Oh: An Emmys Partnership In my heart, I wanted it for Sandra Oh so bad. That said, season two of Killing Eve belonged to Jodie Comer’s Villanelle. And that’s what a partnership is on a show like this. Last season, it was all about Eve, and Sandra was the star, the lead, By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 11:28 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Schitt’s Creek on the Emmys Carpet You didn’t imagine it. Whenever ‘Schitt’s Creek’ was said aloud inside the Emmys theatre, the polite roll of applause would swell, in kind of a warm, but slightly raucous way that felt familiar, somehow… Sometimes, when Mike and I are watching TV, I’ll get too excited and By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 10:50 am
Emmy Awards 2019 Regina King begins her victory lap at the Emmys Regina King is the reigning Best Supporting Actress Oscar winner. When you win an Oscar, that’s how you are introduced wherever you go – Regina King, Oscar winner. She was at the Emmys last night, and she’s won a few Emmys, but even at the Emmys, the Oscar mention By Lainey • Sep 23, 2019 10:05 am
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 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 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 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 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 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’ 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 By Duana • Sep 23, 2019 03:31 am
