Emmy Awards Highlights: Mariska Hargitay Sings and an Actor Dressed as, Yes, an Emmy

The pre-show crowd packed the lobby as Mariska Hargitay hosted and Meg Stalter arrived in an Emmy statuette costume.

  • On Monday, the 78th Emmy Awards took place at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, where the lobby became as jammed as a freeway in the hour before the ceremony began.
  • "Hacks" supporting actress nominee Meg Stalter and Paul W. Downs arrived at their first Emmy Awards, with Stalter dressed as a gold statuette complete with wings and metallic makeup.
  • Longtime "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star Mariska Hargitay is hosting the ceremony on NBC, which marked its 100th anniversary by rolling out a peacock blue carpet.
  • Guests navigated the congested lobby while purchasing concessions including $9 popcorn, $8 hot dogs, and $23 cocktails for the three-hour show ahead.
  • With the ceremony moments away, attendees in formal wear maneuvered through the packed space, as women wearing long trains carefully protected their gowns from errant shoes.
