The award was won for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, which also included other actresses in the category like Jodie Comer for Killing Eve, Sandra Oh for Killing Eve, Olivia Colman for The Crown, Laura Linney for Ozark, and Jennifer freakin’ Aniston for The Morning Show.
Zendaya has now officially set a new record as the youngest actress *ever* to have won in this category. And she won it for her role in Euphoria, which we all know took the Internet by storm (I mean, it was released last year but we’re still fangirling over its makeup looks.)Â
