After winning an Emmy Award for “Suits,” Amanda Seyfried gave a touching speech to thank her children and dog. She also thanked her cast members and show creator Liz Meriweather. “It is an honor to receive this award,” she said.
Succession
The 74th Primetime Emmy Awards are set for Sunday night in Los Angeles, with host Kenan Thompson set to emcee. This year’s nominees include HBO’s Succession, Netflix’s The White Lotus, and Apple TV+’s Severance. Other contenders include The Dropout and Hulu’s Dopesick.
Amanda Seyfried’s acting career has flourished in recent years. Her recent Oscar nomination for her role in Mank marked a career-high. She first found fame as a teenager in Mean Girls, but since then, her acting career has been blossoming.
“The Crown” and “Ted Lasso” were the other big winners at the Primetime Emmys. Netflix’s “The Crown” swept the drama category, and Seyfried received her second Emmy Award in just a few years. Meanwhile, “Ted Lasso” made history as comedy’s first back-to-back winner, starring Jason Sudeikis and Brett Goldstein. With longer breaks between seasons, back-to-back Emmy wins are increasingly rare.
The show won for best drama, comedy series, and limited series. Other winners included Jason Sudeikis, Jessica Chastain, and Jean Smart. Seyfried was named Best Lead Actress in a Limited Series, while Jason Sudeikis won for Best Actor in a Comedy Series.
Ted Lasso
Last night’s Emmy Awards proved that Hollywood award shows are very predictable, with HBO’s “Succession” winning for best drama series and Apple TV Plus’ “Ted Lasso” winning for best comedy series. Both series took home their second Emmy awards in their respective categories.
The Emmy Awards are held every year on April 27, and this year, the award ceremony was held in Los Angeles. The winner of the drama category was “Succession” and the nominees in the comedy category were “The White Lotus” and “Ted Lasso.” The two actors were congratulated and thanked for their contributions to the series, as well as for their continued support. The show is now being developed for a fourth season, and “Ted Lasso” director Brett Goldstein won two Emmys for the show. A couple of other actors won awards for supporting roles, including “The Good Wife” star Julia Garner and “The Big Bang Theory” star Matt Smith.
In addition to her husband, Amanda Seyfried thanked her children and dog after winning Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie. Her speech included several thank yous for the support she has received from her family, friends, and colleagues. In addition to thanking her fans, she also expressed her gratitude for the support of her husband Adam Sadoski.
Sheryl Lee Ralph
After winning Best Supporting Actress for her role in “SNL,” Sheryl Lee Ralph surprised the audience by performing a song. The audience went wild, and she received a standing ovation. The actress has been performing for over 25 years, and she became the first black woman to win an Emmy in the comedy category.
The actress also thanked her family for their support. In her Emmy speech, she thanked her kids and dog for helping her win an Emmy. Sheryl Lee Ralph also thanked Amanda Seyfried’s creator Liz Meriweather and the cast and crew for their hard work.
While Seyfried won for her role as Elizabeth Holmes in the HBO drama “The Dropout,” her character’s family and dog were especially appreciative. The actress’s character, Elizabeth Holmes, is a famous Silicon Valley whiz kid. In her acceptance speech, she thanked her family, friends, colleagues, and dog, Finn. Murray Bartlett, who played a high school nerd in “The White Lotus,” was also honored for his supporting role in the critically-acclaimed film.
