Anyone else euphoric over this win?

Zendaya beat out This Is UsSterling K. Brown, Lili Reinhart from Riverdale, Maisie Williams and Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones, Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead), Stranger Things‘ Millie Bobby Brown and Big Little LiesReese Witherspoon to take home the award in the stacked TV category. 

“Wow, thank you so much!” the surprised star said as she took the stage. “This is incredible. Thank you so much. Euphoria and Rue [are] I think one of the most beautiful things to ever happen to me and I just want to say thank you obviously to HBO and A24…for giving me the chance to be a part of something so beautiful.”

And Zendaya, who won the award for Female Movie Star for her turn as MJ in Spider-Man: Far From Home, had a special message for Euphoria‘s legions of fans who’ve connected deeply with the drama.
