2023 Creative Arts EMMYs (Night 2): JAY-Z, Maya Rudolph, RuPaul, & KeKe Palmer Among BIG Winners [Full List]

Just as the 2023 Primetime EMMYs were delayed due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes so were the Creative Arts EMMYs that annually precede them.

After much anticipation, however, the latter’s two-night ceremony commenced Saturday (January 6) and ended Sunday (January 7) to toast the artistic and technical achievements in TV’s animated, reality, variety, short-form, documentary series, and specials genres.

Ahead of the show’s 75th annual edition airing on FXX on January 13, the second night’s winners have been revealed.

See them inside.
