Zendaya Dishes On Her Historic Emmy Win, Says She's 'On Cloud Nine'

Zendaya is still reeling over her 2020 Emmy Awards win!

The 24-year-old actress won Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her work on Euphoria on Sunday night (September 20).

After the awards show, Zendaya dished on her historic win – she’s the youngest to win the lead actress honor!

“It means so much to me,” she said, via Deadline. “Every single woman in that category I obviously admire immensely.”

“I don’t usually cry,” Zendaya added. “I got through it without letting it take over completely. It was obviously a very emotional moment and I still can’t believe it myself — it’s pretty crazy.”

Zendaya also took to her Instagram story to share a few words before going to bed.

“Still on cloud nine…so grateful, still speechless, to all my friends and family who have texted/tweeted/called etc. I promise I will get back to you tomorrow when I’ve wrapped my head around this amazing night, until then…gonna go to sleep and make sure this isn’t a dream,” she said.

The next morning, Zendaya wrote, “Still don’t really have any words….feeling so much love right now, thank you.”
