Euphoria stars Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney are among the Emmy nominees.
But the novelty is Zendaya, 25, who has made history once again by becoming the youngest producer to be nominated for an Emmy with the series she produces, Euphoria, earning a nomination for Best Drama Series. She has also been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series and received two additional nominations for Best Original Music and Lyrics.
Her four nominations are in recognition of her work on Euphoria, in which she has played the teenage Rue on Euphoria since 2020 and has executive produced six episodes, including four this year.

Reacting to the news of the nominations on her Instagram, Zendaya thanked her colleagues and the Television Academy. “Making this show with this cast and crew of the most incredibly talented people that I have the privilege of learning from every day has been the highlight of my life.
