The Emmys returned to Los Angeles for another year on 12 September, celebrating the best of television over the last year.
Some of the biggest names in showbiz were in attendance, from Zendaya to Laverne Cox, RuPaul and Michelle Visage, Lizzo, Murray Bartlett, Jennifer Coolidge and many more.
The stars took to the yellow carpet to commemorate another year of spectacular television.
This year’s awards mark the 74th year of the ceremony.
Stars are nominated across the 17 Emmy categories.
Here’s a roundup of the night’s biggest and best moments, as well as the winners of each award:
Quinta Brunson dealt with Jimmy Kimmel’s awkward stunt during her speech
Abbott Elementary star and showrunner Quinta Brunson picked up her first Emmy for ‘Writing for a Comedy Series’.
But many felt that comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s stunt to pretend to be asleep on the stage took away from Brunson’s win.
The actress had to step around Kimmel to get to the microphone, where her speech was then cut short by the music playing her out.
Murray Bartlett took home Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie
Murray Bartlett scooped up a best supporting actor award for his work on The White Lotus.
The Australian actor played Armond in the series, where his character has an intense queer sex scene.
Bartlett gave tribute to his partner, Max, and called him his “sanctuary”.
Jennifer Coolidge wins Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie
Legally Blonde icon Jennifer Coolidge snapped up the Emmy for Supporting Actress, following her appearance in The White Lotus.
The star seemed surprised as she accepted the award.
On stage, she pulled out a scrunched up piece of paper, saying “I didn’t think this was going to happen!”
Jerrod Carmichael wins for his comedy special Rothaniel
Comedian Jerrod Carmichael won his first Emmy for his comedy special Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel.
Carmichael came out as gay during the special, and hosted Saturday Night Live the night after its release.
On stage he said: “I wanted to win, I’m happy I won.”
“I made something that was of great personal consequence to me, and this definitely contributes to the meaning of it.”
Lizzo won her first Emmy award
Pop sensation and Watch Out For The Big Grrrls star Lizzo won Outstanding Competition Program for her first Emmy for her debut series.
She delivered a passionate speech encouraging more diverse stories on screen.
The 34-year-old said: “When I was a little girl all I wanted to see was me in the media – someone fat like me, Black like me, beautiful like me.”
For the last four years, RuPaul’s Drag Race has won the award. Lizzo’s win put an end to the show’s winning streak.
Zendaya made Emmy history with a second Lead Actress win
Euphoria star Zendaya made Emmy awards history, becoming the youngest actress to win Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series twice.
The 26-year-old is also the first Black woman to win the award twice.
She delivered a heartfelt speech where she acknowledged the struggles that people go through with addiction, like her Euphoria character, Rue.
“My greatest wish for Euphoria was that it could help heal people and I just want to say thank you to everyone who has shared their story with me,” she said.
“I want you to know that anyone who has loved a Rue or feels like they are a Rue, I want you to know that I’m so grateful for your stories and I carry them with me and I carry them with her.”
Sheryl Lee Ralph accepts her first Emmy with a song
Abbott Elementary star and Broadway star Sheryl Lee Ralph won her first Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.
Ralph took to the stage and sang her heart out to Dianne Reeves’ ‘Endangered Species’, before reciting a powerful speech.
She stated: “To anyone who has ever, ever, had a dream and thought your dream wasn’t, couldn’t, wouldn’t come true, I am here to tell you that this is what believing looks like, this is what striving looks like, and don’t you ever, ever, give up.”
Her speech was quickly dubbed the greatest acceptance speech of all time.
