LOS ANGELES − "Hacks" star Hannah Einbinder had two good reasons to kick her heels off at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards Governors Gala.
It was a long night for both feet after a surprise best supporting actress win, an acceptance speech with a politically charged kicker bleeped by CBS censors, an Emmy show that lasted more than three hours and a walk to the Los Angeles Convention Center party.
Einbinder was one of the first stars to get her Emmy engraved at the gala, keeping her silver heels wrapped around her right wrist. The comedian and actress spent most of her time at the engraving station in deep conversation while holding the hand of "Severance" star Britt Lower, who was also having her trophy for best actress in a drama series personalized.
With the Emmy engraving completed, Einbender held the trophy in one hand, clutched the hem of her one-shoulder Louis Vuitton gown and her heels with the other, and ambled into the party.
"Severance" star Tramell Tillman made history as the first Black actor to win the Emmy for best supporting actor in a drama series and paid tribute to his mother, Jae Tillman, in his emotional acceptance speech.
