Giuliana Rancic was scheduled to host E!’s Live from the Red Carpet special for the 2020 Emmy Awards, but she’s missing from the show as she tested positive for coronavirus.

The 46-year-old television personality says that she found out she contracted COVID-19 while being tested as part of E!’s guidelines ahead of the event.

Giuliana said that her husband Bill Rancic and their son Duke also tested positive.

“Hey, everyone. As I go into my 20th year on the E! red carpet I have to say I do not take missing an award show lightly, but unfortunately this year is just so different,” Giuliana said in a video message aired on the show. “As part of E! and NBCUniversal’s very strict testing guidelines, especially before an event like this, I did find out that I tested positive for COVID-19. Now as much as I didn’t want to hear that, I’m very thankful I heard it before I traveled and possibly could have exposed other people. So for that, I’m thankful.”

She added, “As far as my health, I’m doing well. My husband Bill and our son [Duke] also did test positive, but we’re all doing well and taking care each other so I’m going to get back to doing that. But I just want to say I’m wishing you all the best and please protect yourselves and protect those around you. Take good care and I’ll see you on the next red carpet.”

Zendaya definitely brought it for the 2020 Emmy Awards!

The 23-year-old Euphoria actress showed off her glam look for the annual award show, which will be happening virtually this year, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Twirling around in an Instagram video she and her stylist, Law Roach, shared, Zendaya debuted her amazing look with slicked back hair and a sparkly clutch in her hand.

“And so it begins…” Zendaya wrote on her Instagram Stories, adding that this is only look number one for her.

So stay tuned for more looks!

“I do want to dress up. I still want to have the experience,” she previously said about dressing up for the event. “It’ll be probably just my family over here, but I definitely want to pull a look and maybe just walk my living room carpet.”

Zendaya glammed up in a plunging Christopher John Rogers dress, gorgeous Bulgari jewels and Christian Louboutin heels.

The actress is nominated for her first Emmy award for Euphoria, competing next to Jennifer Aniston, Olivia Colman, Jodie Comer, Laura Linney and Sandra Oh for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

Eddie Murphy is a first time Emmy winner!

The 59-year-old actor picked up his first trophy from the Television Academy this weekend, winning for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his Saturday Night Live hosting gig.

Eddie won the honor over Adam Driver, Luke Kirby, Dev Patel, Brad Pitt, and the late Fred Willard.

After hearing that he won, Eddie recorded a special message and showed off his Emmy, which sits next to his Grammy, and some other awards.

“Thank you to everybody at the Emmys,” he shared. “Thank you so much for giving me an Emmy. I don’t have an Emmy. It’s been 40 years since I started Saturday Night Live, this is my first Emmy, so thank you so much.”

Eddie added, “This was a very, very special thing for me to come back and have the show turn out the way it did. I’m still floating from it.”

This wasn’t the comedian’s first Emmy nomination. Eddie had been nominated four times before, starting in 1983.

There are so many categories at the Emmy Awards that every year, the Television Academy also has the Creative Arts Emmys ceremony where the bulk of the awards are handed out.

For 2020, there are 123 categories overall and only 23 of them are being handed out during tonight’s live show on ABC, so the other 100 were handed out earlier in the week.

The 2020 Creative Arts Emmy Awards took place across five nights this week with Nailed It‘s Nicole Byer as the host for all five shows. Most of the categories involve the creative aspects that go into your favorite shows, like costumes, makeup, sound design, production design, visual effects, etc.

Some of the other awards that were handed out include Guest Actor and Actress awards for both drama and comedy series, as well as awards for Short Form programs. The new streaming service Quibi won their first awards in those categories!

Here is the full list of nominees for the major awards being handed out in the main event.

The 2020 Emmy Awards had a major mix-up.

The ceremony accidentally called Jason Bateman’s name for an award – which was actually meant for someone else – on Saturday night (September 19).

In a voice-over announcement during the online creative arts Emmys, Jason was declared the winner for his guest appearance on HBO’s The Outsider, while the screen correctly displayed the actual winner’s name: This Is Us guest star Ron Cephas Jones.

Confused viewers were informed after a commercial break with an on-screen message that it was an error: “Our apologies, an incorrect winner has been announced. We’re fixing it now,” it read.

Ron Cephas Jones’ name was again displayed, and the Television Academy also tweeted confirmation that he was the actual winner. There was no immediate explanation for the mistake.
