DarrenCriss: Sang this last night for Gianni Versace. Umberto Tozzi’s version would’ve been a hit in Italy when Gianni opened his 1st shop. I’d like to think this song reminded him of early days of success, the days he’d enjoy before blossoming into an international superstar. Per te, Gianni!

Our goal was to respect this tragic story while creating a seamless blend of each actor and their real life counterpart, maintaining period and enhancing the visual storytelling. Period haircuts and color were the foundation to all the styles. Research key to differentiate location. The transformation of the cast included a mix of lace front wigs, and custom integrated hairpieces, hand-painted and airbrush color all intended to fit each character and period.Chris Clark, Department Head Hairstylist Natalie Driscoll, Key Hairstylist

The Main Contenders in Five Crafty Categories
COSTUME DESIGN
Swoon for the nipped waists and perfectly tailored cummerbunds of Starz’s Edwardian adaptation of Howards End, another well-dressed period epic, and perhaps the Television Academy will follow suit. (Those artfully windswept updos should get their due in the hairstyling category as well.) Fast-forward 80-some years, and you’ll arrive at FX’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story—a fashion-filled opus made all the more impressive by its resourcefulness. (Costume designer Lou Eyrich didn’t have permission to use any actual Versace designs on-screen.) And we can’t forget another stylish favorite: Netflix’s The Crown, more specifically that slinky number Princess Margaret wears during her charged photo shoot with Antony Armstrong-Jones.
Emmy Voting Begins But Will Anyone Be Surprised By The Outcome?
[…] In many ways though some of the juice of that “Big Little Lies” vs. “Feud” showdown in the Limited Series categories last year, a battle the HBO entry eventually dominated, is missing. “Twin Peaks” vs. “The Looming Tower” vs. “The Assassination of Gianni Versace”doesn’t have quite the same pull and probably because the celebrated David Lynch series of the three aired so long ago.

Ricky Martin on coming to terms with his sexuality: ‘I wish I could come out again’
Ricky Martin could be poised for his first-ever Emmy nomination, after a remarkable performance in FX’s “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story” series.
Martin, who is openly gay, plays Antonio D’Amico, Versace’s partner, opposite Édgar Ramírez (Gianni Versace) and Penélope Cruz (Donatella Versace).
Martin recently stopped by ABC’s “Popcorn with Peter Travers” and spoke about how much he related to the character, having dealt with his own struggles of hiding and coming to terms with his own sexuality.
Now Martin couldn’t be more comfortable in his own skin.
“I don’t know, my kids are too young, but I wish they were gay,” Martin said. “It is a very special thing. The sensitivity, the way I see now, that I don’t have to hide in any way shape or form. I see colors. And then you see the rainbow. I understand why the symbol is the rainbow. It’s just real. Eveything is tangible. It makes me a stronger person.’
Martin added that even his work life changed when he came out.
“I always say this, I wish I could come out again. Because it felt amazing. That moment when I wrote the letter and I posted it on twitter, and I pressed send. The freedom, the feeling of liberation was so powerful, that’s what I mean by saying I wish I could come out again because it just felt amazing. And then after that, people coming to me and saying thank you so much for coming out. Because of you I understand my father better. I understand my sister better. So it’s an important thing to do.“
Martin’s comments come as celebrations for Gay Pride Month kick off across the country. He encouraged others to seek their own truths.
“For those out there that are struggling with their identity, everything is going to be fine,” he said. “Just be yourself. Love yourself.”
Emmy nominations will be announced July 12.
