Drew Barrymore Clinches Her First Daytime Emmy Amidst Rival Stars!

GLAMOUR AND GLITZ: 2025 DAYTIME EMMY AWARDS SHINE BRIGHT

The stars came out in full force at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium on Friday, as the 2025 Daytime Emmy Awards took center stage. And what a night it was! The red carpet was ablaze with glamour and excitement, as some of Hollywood's biggest names strutted their stuff for the coveted awards.

But amidst all the glitz and glamour, one name stood out from the rest: Drew Barrymore. The 50-year-old actress, who has been hosting her own talk show, "The Drew Barrymore Show," since 2020, took home her first-ever Emmy win in the Outstanding Daytime Talk Series Host category.

And what a moment it was! Barrymore, who has been nominated for this award every year since 2021, finally got her chance to shine. As she stepped onto the stage, a beaming smile on her face, the crowd erupted into cheers and applause. "I am endlessly grateful and so deeply proud of every single person who pours their heart into @thedrewbarrymoreshow," she said in her acceptance speech. "This has never been my show - it's always been our show... a place where everyone belongs, everyone is seen, and everyone is welcomed with open arms."

But Barrymore wasn't the only one celebrating on Friday night. Her talk show, "The Drew Barrymore Show," also won big in several categories, including Outstanding Directing Team For A Multiple Camera Daytime Non-Fiction Program and Outstanding Hairstyling And Makeup.

And it looks like Kelly Clarkson's daytime talk show is still the reigning champion - Live With Kelly And Mark took home the award for Outstanding Daytime Talk Series. Clarkson has been hosting her own show since 2023, and it seems she's got the magic touch!
