published 20 September 20

2020 has been a year like no other. Naturally, award season will follow suit with no official Emmys red carpet this year. Aside from being completely virtual, the 72nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards will feature celebrities dressed up (and down!) from their homes to celebrate the best in television. See what your favorite celebs from Zendaya to Kerry Washington are wearing to the virtual Emmys, below.

3. Jameela Jamil

No bra? No heels? NO PROBLEM. Wearing PJ’s to the 72nd Emmy awards (from my house) is my kind of vibes. Excited to see if we win any of the 7 awards we have been nominated for!!!! I still did my make up and wore a sequin dressing gown, because... It’s what Tahani would have wanted. And this is her day, not mine. ❤️ Jameela Jamil
