Tiffany Haddish Wins Her First Emmy for Hosting Saturday Night Live
A well-deserved win!
The Emmy's 2018 Creative Arts Awards were this past weekend, and it was a history-making moment for black talent.
Tiffany Haddish nabbed her first Emmy—Best Guest Actress in a Comedy—for her hosting stint on Saturday Night Live, Variety reports.
Presenter Tichina Arnold accepted her award on Haddish's behalf as she could not attend Saturday's ceremony.
"Tiffany couldn't be here tonight. But, guess what, Tiffany! I've got your award girl!" Arnold jokes.
