Who Are the Youngest Female & Male Emmy Winners in History? – Hollywood Life

The Emmy Awards honor those whose performances and contributions to a television series made a huge impact. From comedies to dramas, the annual awards ceremony unites the TV industry. And now that 15-year-old Owen Cooper just became the youngest male to ever win an Emmy, we’re looking back at who was the youngest female to do the same.

How Long Have the Emmys Been Around?

The first Emmy Award ever handed out was in 1949. Therefore, as of 2025, the Emmys have been a tradition for more than 75 years.

Who Is the Youngest Female Emmy Winner?

Roxana Zal is still the youngest female — and person — to ever win an Emmy. She took home the award in 1984 for her performance in Something About Amelia.

The Malibu, California, native began acting when she was just 11 and went on to appear in the films Table for Five and Testament. From the 1990s to the early 2000s, Roxana appeared in the television shows Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, The Pretender and NCIS. Shortly thereafter, she retired from acting and went into fashion design.

Roxana’s role in Something About Amelia was a tough one for her. During a 1986 interview with the Los Angeles Times, she said it was difficult to separate her performance and reality. In the film, she portrayed a victim of child molestation.

“I found myself going home depressed and drained. I never went to work happy once,” Roxana recalled. “I could never be happy; I always had to be upset.”

However, the then-teenage star pointed out she was “happy that [she] helped people,” recalling the letters that she received from actual victims of child abuse.

“I was happy that I helped people,” she told the publication. “It made me feel so good. Many people wrote to me and said that they might not have gone to get help if it hadn’t been for me.”

Who Is the Youngest Male Emmy Winner?

Owen Cooper became the youngest male to ever take home an Emmy Award in September 2025. He won for his chilling performance in Adolescence.

“When I started these drama classes a couple of years back, I didn’t expect to even be in the United States, never mind here,” Owen began in his speech after calling it a “surreal” experience. “I think tonight proves if you listen, and you focus and you step out your comfort zone, you can achieve anything in life.”

The young actor pointed out, “Who cares if you get embarrassed? Anything can be possible.” 

“I was nothing about three years ago, [and] I’m here now,” he added, before thanking his family, castmates and the crew behind Adolescence. “It may have my name on this award, but it really belongs to the people behind the camera.”

Owen will appear in the upcoming film adaptation of Wuthering Heights.

Liza Colón-Zayas has officially cemented herself as one of television’s brightest talents thanks to her acclaimed role as Tina Marrero on The Bear. First introduced as a no-nonsense line cook who evolves into a sous chef under Carmy’s leadership, Tina quickly became a fan favorite, with audiences connecting to her warmth, resilience, and sharp humor. In 2024, Liza’s performance earned her a Primetime Emmy Award, marking a career-defining milestone. Now, as The Bear continues to dominate awards season conversations, Liza is once again on the radar for the 2025 Emmys, keeping her firmly in the spotlight as one of the show’s standout stars.

Below, Hollywood Life has rounded up all the details you need to know about Liza, her career and more!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbm0U7JVlXE

Liza Studied Theatre in College

Lisa got her start as an actor by studying theatre at SUNY Albany. The Bronx native earned her Bachelor’s Degree in the major and went on to explore opportunities off-Broadway.

She Is Also a Playwright

The New York City native wrote, produced and starred in her own one-woman show, Sistah Supreme, off-Broadway. The play was semi-autobiographical, as it focused on the trials and tribulations of growing up in the Big Apple as a Latina in the 1970s and ’80s.

Liza Has Starred in Movies

Liza’s first big-screen role was in 1995. From there, she steadily climbed her way up the ladder of Hollywood. Among her most notable film credits are United 93, Righteous Kill and The Purge: Election Year.

She’s Appeared in Several TV Shows

Before she landed her breakout role in The Bear, Liza appeared in numerous guest roles and cameos in different TV shows. Her most popular credits were on the shows Law & Order, Sex and the City, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Dexter, Blue Bloods, Louie and countless others.

Liza Is the First Latina to Win an Emmy in Her Category

The Hulu actress took home her first Emmy Award at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards in September 2024. As she accepted her award, Liza delivered a powerful speech. but first, she admitted that even though her husband, David Zayas, encouraged her to write a speech, she didn’t because she wasn’t expecting to win.

“After thanking her cast and crew members and her family, Liza concluded, “And to all the Latinas who are looking at me — keep believing and vote. Vote for your rights.”

Katherine LaNasa and Grant Show: Did You Know the Newly Minted Emmy Winner Is Married to the ’90s Hottie?

Katherine LaNasa and Grant Show may be one of the hottest couples on the Emmys 2025 red carpet—and we now must know everything about their longtime romance.

LaNasa, a well-established character actor with a seriously impressive IMDB history, finally got her due at Sunday night’s ceremony with her win for best supporting actress for her role as Dana Evans in The Pitt. Considering she’s been working in Hollywood since the early 1990s and this is her first Emmy nomination and win, she has a lot to celebrate.

But in addition to saying to yourself, “Wait, I loved her in XYZ,” you may have noticed the guy on her arm and done a double take. Yes, if you didn’t know LaNasa is married to Show, who is probably best known as ’90s certified hottie Jake Hanson from Melrose Place.

Grant Show and Katherine LaNasa arrive at The 2025 BAFTA TV Tea Party at The Maybourne Beverly Hills on September 13, 2025 .

Steve Granitz

If you’re unfamiliar with Show’s character, his Wikipedia page describes Jake as being “known for being a womanizer as he hooked up with nearly every female occupant of Melrose.” Okay, noted!

Here’s some background on Katherine LaNasa and Grant Show that you are probably curious about. The pair got engaged in 2012, with People reporting that LaNasa “is very excited,” and they married just a few weeks later.

They had a daughter, Eloise, in 2014, who joined LaNasa’s older son, Henry Hopper, whom she had with her first husband, actor Dennis Hopper. LaNasa posts some pretty adorable photos of her family on her Instagram on the reg, and it all looks pretty idyllic.

The Studio continued to dominate as it was awarded the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series.

“I’m legitimately embarrassed by how happy this makes me,” said Rogen.

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert (airing on Global on weeknights at 11:30 p.m. ET) took home the Emmy award for Best Variety Talk Series.

Colbert thanked CBS for “giving us the privilege to be part of the late-night tradition, which I hope continues long after we’re no longer doing this show.”

His comments come after it was announced that The Late Show would be ending after a 33-year run next May.

“Stay strong. Be brave. And if the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy and punch a higher floor,” said the 61-year-old comic.

Colbert received a standing ovation for his talk series win and when he was done talking, the crowd got back on its feet.

Adolescence’s Stephen Graham Wins Emmy for Limited Series Lead Actor

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Stephen Graham won the lead limited series actor Emmy on Sunday, recognizing his portrayal of Eddie Miller in Netflix’s “Adolescence,” which he co-created.

“This kind of thing doesn’t normally happen to a kid like me. I’m just a mixed-race kid from a block of flats in a place called Kirkby,” said Graham, who is of Swedish and Jamaican descent. “To be here today in front of my peers, and to be acknowledged by you, is the utmost humbling thing I could imagine my life, and it shows you that any dream is possible.”

Graham is best known for film roles including Guy Ritchie’s “Snatch” (2000) and Martin Scorsese’s “Gangs of New York” (2002). He also played Andrew “Combo” Gascoigne in the 2006 film “This Is England” and reprised the role in three sequel miniseries that aired in 2010, 2011 and 2015. His other credits include “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy,” two “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies and “The Irishman” as well as “Boardwalk Empire” on HBO and “Peaky Blinders” on BBC.

Also nominated for lead limited series actor were Colin Farrell for “The Penguin,” Jake Gyllenhaal for “Presumed Innocent,” Brian Tyree Henry for “Dope Thief” and Cooper Koch for “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.”

“Adolescence” earned Graham his first three Emmy nominations and wins. In addition to the acting award, he took home trophies for outstanding limited series and limited series writing.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver Wins Emmy For Scripted Variety

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver Wins Emmy For Scripted Variety

by jummy84
written by jummy84

John Oliver once again beat Saturday Night Live.

HBO’s Last Week Tonight beat Lorne Michaels’ NBC show for the third straight year in the Outstanding Scripted Variety Series category.

It comes after the show, which launched on HBO in 2014, previously won seven consecutive times in the Outstanding Variety Talk Series category.

John Oliver thanked HBO and his team as well as his family in an incredibly short speech, helping Nate Bargatze’s charity jar, designed to keep the speeches tight and donate money to the Boys and Girls Club of America. After Oliver’s speech, the counter went back to $99,000.

“F*ck you, Nate Bargatze, that is a lot of money for you and you can add a f*ck to the swear jar as well,” he said before racing off the stage.

In 2023, the TV Academy shook up the categories last year, launching Outstanding Scripted Variety Series, alongside Outstanding Talk Series and moved Oliver into the former, going head-to-head with SNL, which had won the award for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series six years in a row starting in 2017.

It has been nominated for 73 Emmys and won 30. At the Creative Arts Emmys, though, it failed to win in directing, which went to The Late Show, and picture editing.

Oliver, who is contracted through to the end of the 2026 season, exec produces the series alongside Tim Carvell and Liz Stanton. It is produced by HBO in association with Peyance Productions and Avalon Television.
