“Thanks to the bad faggots” and other moments from the Emmys

“I want to thank the bad queers” was the great phrase uttered by Jennifer Coolidge during her acceptance speech at the Emmy Awards gala held tonight at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. They tried to kill her, but she was stronger.

The Emmys have reached their 75th edition on the night of January 15. It is the first Emmy gala to be held since 2022, since in 2023 it did not take place due to the strike of writers and actors in Hollywood that ended just recently. a few months.

The big winner at the Emmys has been ‘Succession’, winning the award for Best Drama Series and also monopolizing the acting categories. Without surprises, it has also been the night of ‘The Bear’ in the Comedy category and ‘Bronca’ in the limited series category.

The big loser of the night, on the other hand, was ‘The Last of Us’, leaving empty-handed. For its part, ‘Better Call Saul’ has become the most nominated series in history that has never received a single award: out of 53 times it has never won.

Among the highlights of the evening, apart from the presence of Jennifer Coolidge itself, we must mention the exchange between Brian Cox and Kieran Culkin after the latter won the award for Best Actor; and the ovation for Christina Applegate after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Another great artist who also has a lot to celebrate after the last Emmy gala is Elton John, who has just become an EGOT talent after winning the Emmy for Best Live Variety Special for the documentary ‘Farewell from Dodger Stadium’ .
