The special Emmy is Beyoncé's first. She has been nominated for 10 others without a victory. And it takes her halfway to an EGOT with her 35 Grammys. She still needs a Tony and an Oscar to complete the quartet.
The award was among a handful of so-called juried Emmys announced Tuesday that are determined outside the regular voting process and given out by committees, with no official nominees. They are usually highly technical — several involve individual elements of the animation process — and rarely go to famous names. They are announced in advance and handed out at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony next month.
Beyoncé is also nominated for best variety special as a producer of 'Beyoncé Bowl' and for best direction of a variety special. Her husband, Jay-Z, is competing against her as an executive producer of Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show.

Leonardo DiCaprio Says Turning 50 Has Changed His Outlook on Life, But Claims He is 'Emotionally 35'

Leonardo DiCaprio has changed the way he views life after turning 50. The actor sat down for a conversation with the director, Paul Thomas Anderson, for Esquire's Mavericks of Hollywood issue, where he talked about his best work, according to him, and the inspiration that keeps him going. The Titanic star, in the beginning, went on to admit that despite his physical age being 50, he feels no more than 35 emotionally. The actor shared that he looks up to his mom, who would act exactly as she thinks. She does not waste time faking her personality or being the person she is not. Leonardo DiCaprio on being 50 While in talks with the director of his upcoming film, One Battle After Another, DiCaprio was asked if he reflected on his life after turning 50. The actor quipped, "Well, it creates a feeling like you have a desire to just be more honest and not waste your time." He added, "I can only imagine how the next few decades are going to progress.' Elsewhere in the conversation, the Oscar-winning actor mentioned his mom, noting her as an example of how "she just says exactly what she thinks and wastes no time. She spends no time trying to fake it." Moreover, for the actor, being in the industry includes "being more upfront and risking having things fall apart or risking the disagreements or risking going your separate ways from any type of relationship in life—the personal and professional." As for his professional career, DiCaprio began with a role on television and later went on to star in What's Eating Gilbert Grape in 1993, giving the actor his first Academy Award nomination. In later years, the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star received six nominations in the Best Actor category and went on to win one for his portrayal of Hugh Glass in The Revenant. Leonardo DiCaprio will next be seen in One Battle After Another, alongside Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, Benicio del Toro, and Chase Infinity, among others. The movie hits theaters on September 26, 2025.

‘South cinema was considered a joke in Bollywood…': Roja actor Madhoo responds, recalls how ‘wonderful Jr NTR' changed his look for her

Jr NTR's 2016 film Nannaku Prematho showed the Telugu actor in a never seen avatar. His charming role as Abhiram won several hearts, and the movie even had a smashing opening at the box office. However, did you know that NTR changed his entire 'mohawk' look because his film's co-star, actor Madhoo, teased him for the hairstyle? In a recent interview with Galatta India, the latter opened up about her 'wonderful' first interaction with Jr NTR. Recalling her first meeting with the superstar, Madhoo shared, 'I did a film called Nannaku Prematho with him. In that film, he had mohawk hairstyle. When we went to shoot for the first time in Spain, as soon as I saw him, I said, 'Okay, so this is the look of the hero!' So, he changed himself completely. He is very wonderful.' The host also asked her to reflect on how South cinema was a joke in Bollywood a few years ago. The Hindi audience and memes used to make fun of their films and regional cinema was presented as a joke. However, the past few years have seen a significant shift as South film industry has been receiving appreciation for their content worldwide. 'Pehle jo mazaak udaaya jaata tha, uss cheez se mujhe bahut dukh hota tha (I used to feel bad about the teasing and jokes). Even I had to face this during my childhood. 'Ae Madrasan aa gayi', it had a negative tonality. What do you mean by that?' she revealed. ALSO READ | Madhoo was discontent with the kind of work in Bollywood, said no to a film with Amitabh Bachchan: 'My secretary asked me to reconsider but…' The actor added, 'We are Indians. Why do we make fun of each other? But, all this was accepted at that time, hence we didn't react much. But, we all succumbed to it. I didn't know how to fight it at that time. So, we used to think how to improve our Hindi fluency, so that people shouldn't get to know from my accent that I am a South Indian. But today, the situation has changed and Madhoo wears her ethnicity with pride. 'I don't feel ashamed now. If I say something wrong in Hindi or there's a thickness of South Indian in my accent, I take pride in that. Yes, I am a South Indian and I am speaking Hindi. If you have a problem with my Hindi, then no problem, I can learn it. But when I was young, I was scared of the South Indian tag. There was a fear. I even tried to learn Urdu,' she said. Moreover, the Phool Aur Kaante (1991) actor wanted to start her acting career with Hindi cinema. 'Even when I was wanting to become an actor, I wanted to star in Hindi films. Destiny made me go towards South cinema, but my design wasn't to be there. But today, I am very proud. I consider myself an Indian film actor now,' she concluded. On the work front, Madhoo has several projects in the pipeline, including Hansal Mehta's next Netflix original, a theatrical film with Manoj Bajpayee, and an Amazon Original series in Telugu.
