Tell us how you really feel.
This weekend, Beyoncé’s critically acclaimed Netflix documentary, “Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé,” was shut out of the 2019 Creative Arts Emmys, taking home none of the six awards for which it was nominated.
While Queen Bey has remained mum on the matter, key members of her crew took to social media to share their disappointment, as publicist Yvette Noel-Schure posted an Instagram video of herself along with manager Steve Pamon and other team members throwing up the middle finger while brushing off the evening.
Tour videographer Ben Hagarty took to Twitter to address the snubs, reposting a fan video comparing his work to the production value of “Carpool Karaoke” which ended up taking home the award for Outstanding Variety Special.
“I held a heavy ass camera and walked backwards keeping these 3 legends in frame while dave held a carabiner on my pants to guide me… Oh and I did it going down a set of stairs … ” he wrote.
Deadline reports Beyoncé lost the directing trophy to “Springsteen on Broadway” while the live televised version of “RENT” took home the award for Best Production Design. “RuPaul’s Drag Race” won for Best Costumes and FX’s “Fosse/Verdon” won for Musical Direction. Lastly, Australian comic Hannah Gadsby beat out Bey for Best Writing with her Netflix comedy special, “Nanette.”
