Tatiana Maslany and Rami Malek had pretty great experiences at the Emmy Awards last night, as did the kids from Netflix's Stranger Things, but it was Ghostbusters star Leslie Jones who might have won the night by joking about her hack and just having the time of her life.
Dressed in Christian Siriano once again (Remember the Ghostbusters red carpet debacle?), Jones wasn't nominated but did have a part to play in the show.

“I just wanted to feel beautiful, y'all,” she said. “Can a sister feel beautiful?” Perfect.

She also got to meet the Queen, Angela Bassett. Keegan-Michael Key can't possibly compete.
