The 71st Emmy Awards kicked off with a two-night event starting with the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony at the Microsoft Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
As a cascade of Emmys was handed out in technical and acting categories, there were plenty of expected wins and some surprising ones as well.
'Leaving Neverland,' Netflix's 'Queer Eye,' RuPaul's 'Drag Race' and National Geographic's 'Free Solo' were among the winners of the 2019 Creative Arts Emmys.
The event that took place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles this weekend honoured several categories including guest actors and actresses, a week before the 2019 Primetime Emmys.
Some of the winners who took an Emmy in the creative field include 'The Simpsons,' which won Outstanding Animated Program, and Seth MacFarlane for 'Family Guy,' in Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance. Rachel Bloom shared an award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for 'Crazy Ex-Girlfriend'.
Singer Beyonce who was nominated for several Emmys for her 'Homecoming' film, lost in all categories, reported E! News.
