The 2022 Emmy Awards are done and dusted and what a bloody show it was!
Queen Zendaya became the first Black woman to win the Emmy for lead actress in a drama series twice, and the youngest two-time winner of any Emmy in history. Um, no biggie!
During her speech, she acknowledged all the people who have identified with her Euphoria character Rue.
“Anyone who has loved a Rue or feels like they are a Rue, I want you to know that I am so grateful for your stories, and I carry them with me, and I carry them with her,” she said.

Meanwhile Lizzo won her first-ever Emmy Award for her series Watch Out for the Big Grrrls. During her powerful speech, she called out Hollywood’s fatphobia and praised what this award means for the community.
“The trophy is nice but my emotion is for these people on the stage with me. The stories that they shared, they’re not that unique, they just don’t get the platform. Telling stories, let’s just tell more stories,” she said.
“When I was a little girl, all I wanted to see was me in the media. Someone fat like me. Black like me. Beautiful like me. If I could go back and tell little Lizzo something, I’d be ‘you’re gonna see that person, but, bitch, it’s gonna have to be you!’”
