OUTSTANDING LEADING ACTOR IN A DRAMA SERIES

Brian Cox as Logan Roy for ("Which Side Are You On?") in "SUCCESSION"
Cody Fern as Michael Langdon for ("Could It Be... Satan?") in "AMERICAN HORROR STORY: APOCALPYSE"
Stephan James as Walter Cruz for ("Redwood") in "HOMECOMING"
Richard Madden as PS David Budd for ("Episode 6") in "BODYGUARD"
Bob Odenkirk as James Morgan "Jimmy" McGill for ("PiƱata") in "BETTER CALL SAUL"
Billy Porter as Pray Tell for ("Love is the Message") in "POSE"

AND THE WINNER IS:


BILLY PORTER AS PRAY TELL FOR ("LOVE IS THE MESSAGE") IN "POSE"

This is the first win and nominated for Billy Porter.

Billy Porter! Billy Porter! Billy Porter! I have to say now that this performance is the best of this past television season. Everything he did on the show was perfect from the cutting way he deliveres Pray Tell's reads at the ball to the caring way in which he delivers Pray Tell's elder advice to the younger characters on the show. Porter's work is full of so much weight and debt and a performance that no other actor could deliver. With the show just completing it's second season a few weeks ago I expect him to be rewarded again by me because if possible he was even greater in the second season.

P.S. Porter is the one Emmy win that I would be upset not to see in a weeks time.
