Creative Arts Emmy Awards Winners Announced; FREE SOLO, LEAVING NEVERLAND, Norman Lear, and More!

Last night the Creative Arts Emmy Awards were presented!

RuPaul's Drag Race took home the awards for Outstanding Hairstyling, Outstanding Costumes and RuPaul Charles won for Outstanding Host. Free Solo was another big winner of the night, taking home seven Emmys including Outstanding Directing for a Documentary/Nonfiction Program, Outstanding Cinematography as well as Sound Mixing and Editing.

When LEAVING NEVERLAND took home the Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special award, director and producer Dan Reed made it a point to thank THE BRAVE young men for coming forward about the sexual abuses they had suffered.

"None of this would have been possible without the incredible courage and determination of Wade and James and their families, and I wanted to salute that," Reed said. "This is one of the first times we've been able to shine light on child sexual abuse....the pattern of how it unfolds is not an easy story to tell....it often remains undisclosed for so many decades, so I thank them from the bottom of my heart."

Another big win for the night was Norman Lear, who became the oldest Emmy winner ever when he took home the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) award for Live in Front of a Studio Audience: Norman Lear's 'All In the Family' And 'The Jeffersons.'

"Thank you, thank you, and holy sh*t," Lear said when he accepted the award. "I got a great reaction, saying that when opening a Christmas present when I was seven years old. It's 90 years later, and I feel much the same."
