Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco Make Red Carpet Debut at Emmys 2025
And the Emmy goes to…
The 2025 Emmy Awards have officially kicked off on Sunday, Sept. 14, meaning your favorite television actors and creators are coming together to celebrate TV’s biggest night.
Hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze and held at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, the annual ceremony hands out coveted trophies to this year’s buzziest performances and most critically acclaimed series. (See every star on the red carpet here.)
As for who took home the very first trophy?
The Studio‘s Seth Rogen took home the night’s first honor, winning Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy.
“Wow, this is amazing,” the actor began his acceptance speech in disbelief. “I so could not wrap my head around this happening that I literally prepared nothing. I’ve never won anything in my life. When I was a kid I bought a used bowling trophy at an estate sale, and my parents were like, ‘Yeah, that’s a good idea. You should probably buy that.'”
And while Rogen may not have written a speech beforehand, he definitely knew who to shout out.
“Thank you to my wife, my mother, everyone who works on the show, my agent, my managers, the writers,” he added. “This is so nice! Thank you. I appreciate you all.”
While most nominees are still waiting to hear their name called, several small screen stars are already big winners.
Last weekend, Hacks‘ Julianne Nicholson and The Studio‘s Bryan Cranston took home the awards for Guest Actress and Guest Actor in a Comedy respectively during the Creative Arts Emmy Awards on Sept. 7. As for the Guest Actor and Actress in a Drama categories, The Pitt‘s Shawn Hatosy and Severance‘s Merritt Wever won top honors.
