Congrats Regina King! She’s come a long way since 227, boyz in the hood & Poetic Justice. Very happy for her. A big congrats to all the winners as well. And can this please be the last OJ related anything… Stop giving that criminal a platform/fame. Hollywood be doing way too much sometimes…
Don’t forget Friday! That movie is a classic
Her role on “the leftovers” was even more groundbreaking than American crime.
Same way I feel about Michael Jackson
Umm when the hell was Jackson convicted of a crime?
Beyoncé forgot to buy this one? Will she spend her money to finally get a hit this decade instead? well, the latter seems unrealistic
As usual u are PRESSED and SOUR like a sack of fresh lemons..
LMAOOOO!!!
PREACH.
I thought Bey would’ve won considering all the praise and awards it’s been getting for it’s cinematography. Oh well a nomination was great enough!
Congratulations to all the winners. However, i could care less i only watched for beyonce and they played because she wasnt there.
I’m highly upset.
She’ll clean up at the grammys so oh well.
WINNERS: Not no damn Sewer-P***! …I honestly don’t think the Emmy committee wanted Beyonce Lemonade winning to overshadow the TV shows and actors that won in the media storm tomorrow about the shows. This is the television academy’s only major show and the winners need the promo.
Yeah, i can see that. But then the producers advertised her like she was going to be there and trolled the hive to watch…which we all did for Bey’s sake alone. They were even asking people to submit fan art for Bey to sign and had entertainment tonight and the insider to tape segments of her on seating charts at the emmys. PETTY..LMAO
That’s because everyone knows how dumb & gullible her fanbase is.
AND ALSO CRITICALLY SPEAKING…GREASE LIVE WAS NOT AS ACCLAIMED AS SOME OF THE OTHER NOMINEES IN THAT CATEGORY..ESPECIALLY LEMONADE.
Out of all the nominees and ACTORS and ACTRESSES, y’all are on here talking about Beyonce!! Congratulations to all the winners. The People vs OJ Simpson was a good mini series
Did you honestly expect any different ? You must have forgotten who’s blog you were on.
I did forget for a second. At least Sam didn’t initiate it this time.
Right! Clearly they only included her for viewership! Knowing damn well that girl ain’t direct anything!
LOL SHE CAN’T EVEN PULL VIEWERS ON HER OWN SO WHY WOULD THE EMMYS THINK SHE CAN PULL VIEWERS FOR THEM? LMAO
Congratulations to everyone
So she lost.
You come from a tribe which is known for being uneducated and driving taxis as the highest form of a job one could get
.
And you have the audacity to talk about ‘losing’ ?
.
Girlllllll
.
Girrrllllll
.
Guuuuuuuuuuurlllllll, not today!
LOL SOUNDS MORE LIKE THE ROACH TRIBE TO ME LMAO
beyonce swept…oh wait
In South Africa there are 11 “tribes”. I belong to the Zulu tribe, something I’m very proud of and will NEVER, repeat NEVER be ashamed of. Being uneducated doesn’t belong to any particular tribe, since there are plenty of educated Zulus. I myself am a medical doctor getting ready at my breakfast table to go to MY surgery, so I’m not sure what you mean.
But if making fun of Black illiteracy was the best way you though of responding to my comment about a celebrity loosing an award then I’m afraid that says a lot about YOU and your…uhm…special brain “Guuuurrrrlllll”.
In SA there are 9 provinces, they all have taxi associations, manned by different uhm “tribes” as you call them. Unless of course you have verifiable evidence that Zulus have a monopoly on the taxi industry (which does a great job BTW).
What’s true is that she lost. What’s not true is your classism, tribalism and racism. A 3-in-1 combo of stupidity and ignorance ALL in defense of a celebrity who doesn’t know you. S’lima sestabane.
We don’t give a damn.
I must have hit a nerve if you wrote all that sentence to defend your stupid tribe
.
They don’t own taxis they are employed to drive them
.
You ain’t no medical doc, else you wouldn’t be outchea throwing shade to Beyonce every chance you get
.
You ghetto. Basic. Uneducated. Bitter . Vile . Irrelevant.
.
Stay mad bxtch. Atay the fughggg madd
LMAO DON’T BOTHER ARGUING WITH THESE ROACHES, THEY STAN FOR A HS DROPOUT THAT’S NOW OWNED BY AN EX-DRUG DEALER LOL. THE IRONY OF A BEDBUG CALLING SOMEONE UNEDUCATED LMAO….
I need Cesrsi Lanister to get her Emmy!
Where is beyawnce win with her 4nomination? At least one award beyawnce couldn’t buy for herself. Lmao. They really troll her.
Beyoncè just won 8 VMA’s on “frihanna’s night”. How much did frih recieve?
But this about The Emmys, a REAL award show, not some fan-driven mess like the VMAs. Why couldn’t the almighty “queen” b get anything there?
???
I loved the people vs oj
Courtney B. Vance,
Sterling K Brown
Sarah Paulson
(Congrats Regina also)
Thiefyonce could never steal/buy this?
*I AIN’T SORRY*
Regina King looks wierd in those photos or is it just me? #Botched ?
TBH Lemonade is great, good visuals and create a moment back in April . But you know it’s not really a tv show so i understand why she didn’t win.
BUT i hate the fact they used her name to promote the show…seriously i’m in Paris i stayed late night hoping Bey would have won an Emmy and allow the hive to shut the mouth of the Monsters (Gaga’s golden globes) and thought she gonna come with a surprise performance…i stayed behind my screen till the last minute of that damn show i almost cried of anger …hmmm
Emmy bye you will never get my view again .
LMAO DEATH AT THE ROACH NEST GETTING TROLLED SO THEY COULD HAVE A FRONT ROW SEAT TO KOOLAID GETTING POURED IN THE EMMYS TOILET LMAO!
LOL AT LEAST GAGA WAS ABLE TO SNATCH A GOLDEN GLOBE LOL…
