RuPaul’s Drag Race, Queer Eye, Carpool Karaoke and Free Solo have all won big at the Creative Emmys 2019.
Television’s elite gathered at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles to celebrate the biggest and best work that goes on behind the scenes of our favourite TV shows.
Drag Race, which is soon to debut its UK series, was given three awards for hair, costume and best host – the fourth time in a row RuPaul took home the award.
Accepting the trophy, RuPaul dedicated the award to the memory of Jacqueline Wilson, a producer on the show who passed away last week.
Queer Eye took home four awards, including for its casting, which this season included a man who was shot and left paralyzed in a gang fight. He was reunited with his shooter during the episode in one of the most hard-hitting moments the show has ever delivered.
They also took home structured reality programme for the second year in a row.
Saturday Night Live proved its sticking power by also receiving four awards over the night, acknowledged for its non-prosthetic make-up, lighting design, production design and a short film on the history of the show.
Carpool Karaoke, the runaway viral hit segment from The Late Late Show with James Corden, also did well and took home three awards: two for Corden, and one for the spin-off series on Apple.
But the biggest winner of the evening was in documentary Free Solo, fresh from its Oscar win at the beginning of the year.
