Succession was the favourite to replace it in the hotly-contested best drama category, and it pulled through.

Hilarious dig at royalty

Succession Writer Jesse Armstrong even joked about King Charles the third after winning Best Drama Series

The top categories saw many return winners, in Succession, Ted Lasso, Zendaya and Jean Smart. 

But it was the Saturday Night Live” emcee turned Emmy’s host who’s dig at Leo DiCaprio stole the show.

TikTok is tightening its regulations on influencers who promote weight-loss drugs like Ozempic.

With over 170 million users in the US, the app aims to prevent the spread of potentially harmful content related to rapid weight loss.
