Queen Bey Just Snatched Her First Emmy Win
Beyoncé just proved — again — why she’s in a league of her own. The superstar officially makes history with her first-ever Emmy Award for her Netflix special, Beyoncé Bowl.
The Television Academy just dropped the winners of the 77th Emmy Awards in specialized categories honoring animation, costume design, emerging media programming, and motion design. This historic win went down during the Creative Arts Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on September 6 and 7, with the televised broadcast hitting FXX on September 13.
Beyoncé’s fans have been waiting for this moment for years — and HU has covered her every milestone. Just last year, we reported on her record-breaking Grammy wins, and now she’s adding that coveted gold Emmy statue to her trophy case.
‘Beyoncé Bowl’: A Hometown Halftime Show Like No Other
Produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment and Beyoncé’s own Parkwood Entertainment, Beyoncé Bowl brought the NFL’s first-ever Christmas Day Game Halftime Show straight to her hometown of Houston. The Netflix special captured the magic for millions around the world.
Beyoncé didn’t just perform — she built the vision. She shared design credits with fashion powerhouse Shiona Turini and led an elite creative crew that transformed a sports halftime slot into a cultural event.
And here’s the twist: this wasn’t your typical Emmy race. Juried categories skip the nominee stage entirely. Instead, industry experts gather to review each submission, have deep discussions, and decide if the work deserves that Emmy shine.
For Beyoncé? It was a clear touchdown.
