Attending the 2024 Emmy Awards together were Billy Crudup and Naomi Watts. Both were nominated for separate shows; Billy for “The Morning Show” and Naomi for “Feud: Capote vs. the Swans.”
They remarked in an interview that although both of them are vying for honours, there is no rivalry between them. They routinely discuss their work and help one another. Billy said they became competitive only when playing Scrabble or Wordle.
Naomi mentioned how appreciative she feels of having Billy with her during the awards season. She claimed she feels more at ease in public occasions when she has someone to hold hands with and establish eye contact with.
Billy said he was delighted with Naomi’s performance and complimented her. Having someone who knows the difficulties of their work is fantastic, he said.
Their pleasant conversation and encouraging friendship set them apart tonight. On and off the screen, it was abundantly evident they were each other’s biggest admirers.
