Los Angeles, CA (The Hollywood Times) 9/12/22 – The 74th Primetime Emmy Awards was a blast to watch. The actors all showed a little humility and humanity. The look of pure joy as they were all getting awards was childlike and mesmerizing. They all looked stunning. We were treated to a couple of moving acceptance speeches, inspiring people to be themselves and not give up on their dreams. The jokes were funny. When they made a joke about Leo Dicaprio doesn’t date above 26. I giggled. I was shocked at the joke about Warner Brothers Discovery cutting some shows on HBO max. John legend stole the show with that touching performance dedicated to the people in the industry no longer with us. It was an honor covering the Emmys for The Hollywood Times. Without further ado here are your winners…
