Julia wins Emmy!

Last night (or the early hours of this morning) Julia Ormond won the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Movie award at the Emmy Awards for her role in Temple Grandin.

There are lots of photos on sites like www.zimbio.com. Here are three I "borrowed"...

Here's the Julia bit:


Julia Ormond, nominated for supporting actress in a miniseries for her role in "Temple Grandin," still has some red carpet concerns.

"Obviously there's a big thing with trying to get the dress," she said. "I'm not a size zero, so it's always, let's just find one where we can get everything into."

Being nominated is "amazing," she said: "To be put in a category of women and other actresses that I really respect, it's been really validating."


Julia and fellow nominees on Prop 8 which I understand is a big issue in the States.
