Emmys 2014: Jimmy Fallon, Uzo Aduba lead Creative Arts winners list
“Scandal” guest star Joe Morton and “Saturday Night Live” host Jimmy Fallon led the list of surprise winners Saturday night at the Creative Arts Emmys, while Uzo Aduba beat out Tina Fey and Melissa McCarthy to pick up her first Emmy for “Orange Is the New Black.”
Morton bested Beau Bridges of “Masters of Sex” and Robert Morse of “Mad Men,” among others, in the category of guest actor in a drama series. In the corresponding comedy category, Fallon beat out a strong list of nominees including Steve Buscemi for “Portlandia” and Louis C.K. for hosting “Saturday Night Live.”
Uzo Aduba won guest actress in a comedy series for playing the character known as Crazy Eyes in “Orange Is the New Black.”
Allison Janney, who won four Emmys during the run of “The West Wing,” took home another trophy for guest actress in a drama. Her win for “Masters of Sex” could be matched with a second this year: She will be up for another statuette for her work on the CBS sitcom “Mom” when the Primetime Emmys are handed out Aug. 25.
