Nigeria TV Info – Teen Actor Owen Cooper Makes History as Youngest Male Emmy Winner
Teen actor Owen Cooper stunned Hollywood on Sunday night, becoming the youngest-ever male Emmy winner at just 15 years old. Cooper won for his breakout role in Netflix’s mini-series Adolescence, which also dominated the evening with six awards, cementing itself as the night’s biggest winner.
“I was nothing about three years ago, and now I’m here,” Cooper said during his acceptance speech. “Step out of your comfort zone a little bit, who cares if you get embarrassed?” His inspiring words resonated at a ceremony celebrating both newcomers and veterans across the television landscape.
Seth Rogen’s workplace satire The Studio took home four trophies, including best lead actor in a comedy for Rogen himself. “I’m legitimately embarrassed by how happy this makes me,” he joked on stage. Meanwhile, The Pitt pulled off a surprise upset, winning best drama over mega-hits Severance and The White Lotus. Still, Severance claimed two significant awards, softening the blow for its devoted fanbase.
