Veteran actress Jennifer Coolidge tonight won her first Emmy, conquering the category of Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie, with her standout turn on HBO’s The White Lotus.“Hey, hi.
Wow, thank you. Gosh. What a night,” said Coolidge up top. “I just want to say to my fellow nominees, just to be in your company, it’s incredible.”Coolidge added that she’d taken “a lavender bath” just before the show, with it making her “swell up” inside her dress. “I’m having a hard time speaking,” she deadpanned. “But anyway, this is so thrilling…”The broadcast was subsequently interrupted as the actress cursed upon realizing she should get to her thank-yous, then proceeding to thank her team, The White Lotus‘ producers, the execs at HBO and her sister.
As the Emmys’ producers began to play her off with music, she exclaimed, “Wait, hold on. This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing, and I’m full.
I’m full,” pointing to her dress.Coolidge attempted to press on with her speech but simply broke into an impromptu dance as she was met with a second song imploring her to leave the stage — this one, being an orchestral rendition of “Hit the Road Jack.” While the actress had more to say, she unfortunately had her mic cut at this point.Still, Coolidge tonight bested competitors including her White Lotus co-stars Connie Britton, Alexandra Daddario, Natasha Rothwell and Sydney Sweeney, as well as Dopesick‘s Kaitlyn Dever and Mare Winningham.
