Sunday night was full of glamour and stars gathering under one roof. 71st Emmy Awards kicked off with the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony at the Microsoft Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
As usual Game of thrones stole the night with 10 awards and backing it up was HBO’s mini series Chernobyl took seven awards Sunday night.
Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won six including acting accolades for Jane Lynch and Luke Kirby, while The Handmaid’s Tale surprisingly swooped in and took guest acting trophies for Bradley Whit-ford and Cherry Jones. But we are not happy with the results, as we were rooting for Handmaid to take big wins.
No look at the Sunday night big wins, RuPaul’s Drag Race won for Outstanding Hair-styling, Outstanding Costumes, and RuPaul Charles for Outstanding Host. It was the fourth win in a row for Charles.
