OUTSTANDING DIRECTING FOR A VARIETY, MUSIC OR COMEDY SERIES/SPECIAL

Jon Old & Madeleine Parry for Hannah Gadsby: Nanette
Beyonce Knowles-Carter for Homecoming: A Film By Beyonce
Paul Pennolino for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver
Glenn Weiss for The Oscars
Glenn Weiss for 72nd Annual Tony Awards
Don Roy King for Saturday Night Live

AND THE WINNER IS:


BEYONCE KNOWLES-CARTER FOR HOMECOMING: A FILM BY BEYONCE

This is the first win and second nomination for Beyonce. She was previously nominated for directing Lemonade (2016).

While I didn't watch the Beychella event live I did watch the concert the day later and like many was blown away. Cut to a year later and Beyonce's Homecoming was a deep dive into both the concert and Beyonce's nearly year long commitment to the creation of this moment in the pop culture. This television concert special both showed the greatest of the spectacle that was Beychella and also the great journey that took Beyonce to great this event. If this every 2/3 exploration of how Beyonce works is a trend I'll gladly continue to watch all the product she produces.
