@Delron Beard We are very aware of that. The lament is that only He gets the attention and awards recognition while the female cast is just as amazing.
Yo I’m a straight dude from Texas that started watching Pose cause my homegirl and I ran out of shit to watch on quarantine. Had I known ahead of time it was all about Drag I would have never given it a chance, but we started watching it and man it’s objectively a really good show. When Billy Porters character finds out he tests positive for HIV I am sure the board at the Emmy’s was like “welp, he wins.” Not only that, but then his character wastes no emotion on any word... he got a rightfully deserved Emmy and I find myself now fully engaged in this show... well done FX
"It took many years of vomiting up all the filth that I have been taught about myself, and halfway believed, before I could walk around this earth like I had the right to be here" Amazing. He evokes the message and power of Pose in who he is. I think all the stars of that show do. What a great quote!
That made me cry, because I found out several years ago that I have black ancestry, which was a deep family secret and I saw how the fear and self-hatred twisted up my grandparents and their parents. We should never be forced to lie about who we are. It's so incredibly toxic and kudos to Porter for speaking that truth.
Billy porter is such an inspiration to so many people who dont believe in themselves and put themselves self down, like what I did for many years until I watched him in Pose. That award is rightfully his, I can't tell you how many times I laughed, cried and was inspired that no matter how tough life gets - things do get better but aslong as you change it and stand up for what you believe in. Very well deserved you truly inspirational man 💖💖💖
Unforgettable character, Billy Porter: The xatergory is LOVE. THIS IS WHAT BILLY EXUDES ON STAGE AS AN ARTIST AND A WORLDWIDE OF HEARTS AND KISSES.... CONGRATULATIONS TO A WELL HONORED PERFORMER!!
This man was barely out of a crib when he started planning his musical career. For the people who treated him badly, may the negative karma come back and bite you in the ass. Just finished Billy’s book and I would recommend reading it.
There are so many success stories from Star Search, Britney, Xtina, Justin, but Billy's success is one of the most important. He kept striving, kept working, kept doing his thing, and made a place for himself when others would not make a place for him. It brings me joy to live in a time where a gay black man can get on a stage, receive an award, speak his truth, and have his peers stand and applaud. The world needs more Billy Porter.
I LOVE BILLY... and I am SO HAPPY that Kerry presenter the award. She understands and captures the historic gravity of the moment. And no one better than Billy to carry the torch! 🔥🙌🏾 I hope he upsets Brian Cox and Jason Bateman again this year to make it back to back wins!!
uhmm Television Academy you might want to change the caption above. Billy is not the "Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series for Better Call Saul" he is the Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series for POSE!!!
he wasn't my favorite character on the show...but he was the most important character on the show, because as flawed as he was, he was the moral compass of the show....The Mama, so to speak. And POSE, doesn't work without him in it. When all the crazy personalities were hurling their pain and drama at him, he did what a REAL friend was supposed to do : tell you the shit you dont wanna hear.
Now get MJ Rodriguez and Dominique Jackson their nominations, because they DESERVE
THEY WERE ROBBED-AGAIN!!!
They really deserve it but it doesn’t seem likely at this point
Ryan Akwar Take your hate comments elsewhere, troll.
I swearrrrrrrrrr
Absolutely agree
*All the ladies in POSE were as great as Billy Porter*
ABISAI GILBERT oh absolutely
*FEMINISM*
You're absolutely right! They should be getting just as much attention as Billy. Especially MJ!
@Delron Beard We are very aware of that. The lament is that only He gets the attention and awards recognition while the female cast is just as amazing.
Maybe even better. They were paid dust in the nominations
Billy Porter was so amazing in pose. He made me cry, laugh, inspired, laugh and cry all the way again and again. So well deserved.
What a surprise .

Same here
I’m sorry but just MJ Rodriguez and Dominique Jackson are on the same level as Billy Porter. The rest is good but not like them
"It took many years of vomiting up all the filth that I have been taught about myself, and halfway believed, before I could walk around this earth like I had the right to be here"
Amazing. He evokes the message and power of Pose in who he is. I think all the stars of that show do. What a great quote!

But can we take a sec to acknowledge Dominique Jackson’s smile 🥺 she’s so proud 😭😭
"Apologies to whoever's sitting right behind him to the left..." haha CLASSIC!
If I didn't know any better, I'd think he was throwing shade. LOL
Lmao that killed me
Was that a reference? Or the actual person behind him? 😂
That hat is EVERYTHING!!!!
"Apologies to the person sitting directly behind him to the left...."
@@fleetwood7538 lmaooooooooooo
Now if Billy Porter could just win an Oscar he would EGOT-ed for sure.
he honestly just needs the opportunity for an oscar since the films he have been in are not oscar caliber projects
Hmm. Maybe there could be a Pose movie after the series ends this season...
It would be nice.
And the category IS... LLOOOVVEEE
You betta say it Billy ❤️😭❤️😭
I'm in the middle of binging Pose and hearing Billy say "the category is" here gives me chills! i love this show!
That was a tough category. All those actors had great performances but Billy Porter deserved it
His Mom looks young enough to be his sister!
That is his sister actually
His Mom!!!?? How the hell?? His Mom.
That has to be his sister not his Mom
Yeeeah i was just rolling up the comment session to see this comment, I thought it was his sister omg
No that’s actually his sister Mary Martha
Glad he was recognized for his performance. He deserves all the awards.
Because he earned it.
Mj's reaction is the proudest and dominique's is the happiest face ive ever seen on people
Omg!! Billy Porter did his thing! He was amazing in Pose and his performances gets better.
What a surprise.
His episode submission, "Love Is the Message" was absolute fire with so many real and authentic emotions. So well-deserved.
Billy Porter and MJ Rodriguez was amazing in that episode, kinda sad that they didn't nominated MJ Rodriguez cause she absolutely deserved it
When he says, "the category is Love y'all Love!"... It was absolutely legendary... I could imagine a thousand ballrooms illuminating
“You have the right, I have the right, we ALL have the right...” Billy Porter thank you for being YOU!! lovelovelovelovelove 💕
Billy Porter's hat was EVERYTHING.
I know right..
Part of me wanted him to read the crowd, when he said "I need to read"
What a wonderful moment. He is extraordinary and so wonderful to see the cast truly celebrating with him. You can feel the love between them.
Watching Pose right now and sheeeesshhhh Billy Porter is an outstanding, remarkable actor.
MJ Rodriguez's reaction is priceless, like a proud friend and mother. Beautiful moment!
Time stamp?
@@khancharlie8508 1:02
The way Kerry was so excited for Billy!
Ryan Murphy times 3 is all we really need !
Imagine him as the host
"The category is:..."
This new season his acting blows me away. The entire cast deserves Emmy's. Such a powerful show.
I’m so moved by Billy… ‘ The Category Is Love!’ Honey I’m feeling this in my spirit…
And so beautiful to see everyone applauding Billy. He is amazing
LEGEND.
JJ Chrismer cause he is :)
I just finished the first season of Pose and this was well deserved! 🙌🙌
So proud of you. Your character on that show is more and above. It’s such a craft
I love how the other cast cheered fir him. I luv them congratulations
Well deserved win, he was exceptional in Pose.
Well deserved! He’s got so much charm and charisma... I could listen to him speak for hours!
The look on the cast’s faces … and the face of James Van der Beek behind them ….❤️
it´s funny hear Elektra saying "BILLY!!!" at 0:45

Amazing speech, amazing show, cast, all of them. Thank you Ryan Murphy 🙌

Amazing!
uhmm Television Academy you might want to change the caption above. Billy is not the "Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series for Better Call Saul" he is the Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series for POSE!!!

CRYING
he wasn't my favorite character on the show...but he was the most important character on the show, because as flawed as he was, he was the moral compass of the show....The Mama, so to speak.

Love him... yes mama
Mr. Porter, that hat is everything.
Love it
recognition for the wonderful trans women in the cast PLEASE!!!!
Them cutting to his sister when he mentioned his mom is problematic :D
that was cute- but now give the trans girls the recognition. they deserve to be up on that stage
Exactly
don’t do that
Billy can I borrow that hat just for 2 hours??? Man that hat is everything.
He blew me away on Pose, such unexpected acting prowess
i'll always be rooting for everybody black and that's all there is to it!
BILLY IS PURE LOVE ❤️
Would have given anything to sit behind him to the left! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Omg somebody edit the video description!!!
FYI, I wrote to the Academy this morning and they fixed this very quickly.
@@salb222 bless you

I wish Dominique Jackson wins an Emmys his acting in Pose is outstanding.
