Nicole Kidman, who earned her first Emmy, delivered a strong message about domestic abuse during her acceptance speech for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie.
“.. I want them to know that sometimes when you’re acting, you get a chance to bring a bigger message, and this is their contribution and your contribution,” she said. “We shone a light on domestic abuse. It is a complicated, insidious disease. It exists far more than we allow ourselves to know. It is filled with shame and secrecy and by you acknowledging me with this award, it shines a light on it even more. So thank you, thank you, thank you. I bow down to you.”
