Episode Details

The Emmys glittered with stars — but some big names were mysteriously MIA. Keke Palmer and Jenna Ortega skipped the red carpet despite their show’s nominations, while Taylor Swift sent a hilarious pre-taped cameo instead of attending, busy cheering Travis Kelce at an NFL game. Selena Gomez showed up solo as Benny Blanco promoted his book. Billy Crudup, nominated for “The Morning Show,” was rehearsing in London — proving even award season can’t stop real-life commitments. Matthew Rhys had a double win, joking about his wife Keri Russell’s playful threat to stay home if he took both trophies. Zendaya, Nicole Kidman, and Florence Pugh lit up the event — reminding us that behind the glitz are people juggling life, love, and other gigs.
