Linda Hill — Tue, 16 Jan 2024 06:55:00 +0000

Elton John has won more accolades than we can count, and his latest helped him enter the door of the coveted EGOT club. The iconic British singer finally became the EGOT winner, after collecting his first Emmy Award for Elton John Live: Farewell from Dodger Stadium

John’s Disney+ special won the award for outstanding variety special at the Primetime Emmys on Monday night, beating the likes of the most recent Oscars and Tony Awards shows, Rihanna’s Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show, and Chris Rock: Selective Outrage.

This victory finally helped John win one award that had been eluding him for years and officially become the EGOT winner. He’s also the recipient of five Grammy awards, two best original song Oscars for “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King and “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again” from Rocketman, and one Tony for the best original score for Aida.

John wasn’t present at the ceremony, but he acknowledged this historic honor in an official statement.

“I am incredibly humbled to be joining the unbelievably talented group of EGOT winners tonight. The journey to this moment has been filled with passion, dedication, and the unwavering support of my fans all around the world,” said John in a press release.

“Black-ish” Star Anthony Anderson Announced as Emmy Awards Host

Nikoleta P — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 06:12:00 +0000

Anthony Anderson attended the Emmys as a nominee on several occasions in the past, and he’s getting ready to return as a host next year. The Black-ish star has been announced as the host at the upcoming Primetime Emmy Awards, taking place in Los Angeles this January.

The Television Academy chair Frank Scherma described Anderson as a multi-talented performer and a great friend of the Academy, and added they’re “thrilled that he is hosting what promises to be a rich celebration of the year’s outstanding television, as well as 75 years of Emmys excellence.”

Anderson said he can’t wait to be part of the biggest night in television, and he’ll certainly feel right at home on the Emmys stage. Anderson scored 11 nominations as star and executive producer of the ABC sitcom Black-ish, which ended its run last year. He went on to star in Kenya Barris’s comedy You People and will soon host the game show We Are Family.

After a major delay in the face of dual strikes in Hollywood, the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards are scheduled to take place on January 15, 2024. The final season of HBO’s Succession will come into the night with 14 nominations, closely followed by The White Lotus with 12.

2021 Emmy Awards: “The Crown” Scores Big Victory

Mark Walker — Mon, 20 Sep 2021 08:12:00 +0000

The Emmy Awards crowned their winners on Sunday night, and the major awards were mostly picked up by obvious front-runners. The Crown dominated the night with seven accolades in the drama field, while Ted Lasso dominated the comedy categories with four.

The Crown pulled quite an upset by picking up trophies in all the categories it was running. Its stars Josh O’Connor, Olivia Colman, Tobias Menzies, and Gillian Anderson collected acting awards in their respective categories, while the show itself won awards for outstanding drama series, outstanding directing, and outstanding writing for a drama series.

Ted Lasso also had an impressive showing in the comedy field and won the award for outstanding comedy series. Its stars Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein were awarded acting Emmys for their performances on the show. HBO Max series Hacks was right behind with three awards, including the outstanding lead actress in a comedy series for Jean Smart.

Mare of Easttown was the big winner of the night when it comes to limited series, and its stars Kate Winslet, Evan Peters, and Julianne Nicholson walked away with acting awards. This series, however, missed out on the award for outstanding limited or anthology series, which went to The Queen’s Gambit.

The 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards took place on September 19th, with Cedric the Entertainer serving as the host.

“Game of Thrones” Tops the List of 2019 Emmy Awards Nominations

Nikoleta P — Wed, 17 Jul 2019 05:22:53 +0000

The final season of Game of Thrones ended with a bang this year, and Emmy voters definitely took notice. Despite mixed reviews, HBO’s epic series set a record by receiving a total of 32 nods.

To be fair, Game of Thrones owes the majority of its nominations to technical achievements, honored at the Creative Emmy Awards, but that doesn’t minimize the enormous success of this series. 14 of those nominations were in the main categories, in the running for Primetime Emmy – including best drama series.

Game of Thrones was followed Ava DuVernay’s Netflix mini-series When They See Us, which received a total of 11 nominations in the main categories. HBO’s comedy Barry came in third with a total of 9 nods.

The Emmy Awards will be held on September 22nd at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, but it’s still unclear who will take on the hosting duties.
