New Emmy statuette

In celebration of the Emmy Awards® reaching its remarkable 75-year milestone, the Television Academy decided to update its iconic statuette, paying homage to its timeless significance. Inspired by the appearance of Halley's Comet, which graces us with its presence once every 75 years, the enhanced statuette represents the intersection of art, history, and talent.

Television Academy President and CEO Maury McIntyre explained the significance behind the new statuette, stating, "We wanted to find a way to honour the historic nature of the anniversary. The Emmy Awards have always been about celebrating excellence, and that hasn't changed significantly throughout the decades. With this in mind, we didn't want to deviate too far from the essence of Emmy herself."
