Emmy's best moments
The Emmy 2021 had as its presenter Cedric the Entertainer, who kicked off the event by singing “Just A Friend” by Biz Markie as a tribute to the singer who passed away in July 2021.

Michaela Coel won the category of Best Screenplay on I may destroy you. In addition to the script, Michaela also plays the protagonist of the series Arabella, a writer who was developing her newest novel, and one night she goes out to have fun with her friends - and ends up suffering sexual violence. Michaela in her speech dedicates her award to all victims of sexual abuse:
“Write the story that scares you, that makes you feel insecure, that makes you feel uncomfortable. I dare you – in a world that entices us to navigate other people’s lives to help us better determine how we feel about ourselves and, in turn, feel the need to be constantly visible, as visibility nowadays seems to be a challenge. somehow equates to success – don't be afraid to disappear from her, from us for a while, and see what comes to you in the silence. I dedicate this story to every survivor of sexual violence.”
Michaela Coel, actress and screenwriter
