Selena Gomez slipping on the red carpet – then showing up barefoot on stage. 

The style was praised on social networks and highlighted her as one of the figures of the night, where she would also be in charge of delivering one of the long-awaited statuettes.

However, in the middle of her red carpet walk, the singer also suffered a fall in front of the cameras that ended up breaking one of her shoes. But Gómez decided to continue her journey completely barefoot on the way to officiate one of the award categories. 

Jung Ho-yeon’s reaction to being announced as the winner…

The nominees for Best Actress in a Drama Series were: Jennifer Aniston, Jung Ho-yeon, Elisabeth Moss, Sarah Snook, and Reese Witherspoon, but it was Jung Ho-yeon who took the statue home, and her speech will bring you to tears. 

“I have sat many a time, watching you on the big screen, dreaming of one day becoming an actor,” said Jung, in her first language, Korean. “I just want to say thank you so much.” Well deserved, Jung!
