Actress Niecy Nash wins an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a limited or anthology series or movie for her role in the ‘Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’ Netflix show.
While on stage, Nash accepts the award and thanks a few people, including herself. “I’m a winner, baby!” she said at the beginning of her acceptance speech. “Thank you to the most high for this divine moment. Thank you Ryan Murphy for seeing me. Evan Peters, I love you. Netflix, every single person who voted for me — thank you. And my better half who picked me up when I was gutted from this work, thank you.”
She continued, “and you know who I want to thank? I want to thank me,” the actress added, “And I want to say to myself in front of all you beautiful people, ‘Go on girl with your bad self. You did that!’”
Following the awards, the actress celebrated her special day with her other half. “We are celebrating this Emmy win by going skinny-dipping in an indoor pool,” the actress while in the pool with her wife, Jessica Betts. “And have some champagne,” she said.
The comments lit up with support for the couple. “Moments to remember forever! Revel in them! Luxuriate in them! Drink them in! May His blessings continue to embrace you! Congratulations on this joy, this happiness, this love! Yes!” comments Ava DuVernay. Take a look below.
