For the second time this year, Hollywood gathered to celebrate some of their biggest stars.
The 2024 Primetime Emmys were hosted this past Sunday to honor the best in American television, recognizing shows which aired from June 1, 2023 until May 31, 2024.
And what every award show has in common are its “moments”: some heartwarming, some laughable, and of course, some are just downright awkward.
Here are 11 of those puzzling moments from the 76th Emmys that were too awkward to ignore.

#2 Fans Argue “The Bear” Was Put In The Wrong Category
The Bear scored 11 awards, breaking its own record, but fans online were quick to say the show should not have been placed in the comedy category.
“All those actors and actual comedies deserve better,” someone said.
The show is one built on consequences and grief, but the show’s producers see it as a comedy.

#4 Reality Star’s “Unrecognizable” New Look
Plane Jane from RuPaul’s Drag Race left all the red carpet onlookers puzzled.
The Boston native wore a skintight mini red dress with plumped lips and tattoos covering a vast majority of her body, and fans took to the Internet to express their reactions.
One said, “We have to stan I’m afraid.”

#11 Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s “Cringe” Mid-Ceremony Commercial
The Bear star Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Kissing Booth’s Taylor Zakhar Perez did a sketch where the former said it was okay to drink at the Emmys, later elaborating on information about the drink.
Turns out, the entire sketch was a commercial for the whiskey “Johnnie Walker Blue Label.”
Moss-Bachrach had won an award for Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series.
