‘Top Chef’ Host Padma Lakshmi Got Roasted At The Emmys For Losing 16 Times

Buy Me A Coffee

Padma Lakshmi, the dazzling diva of television, is practically royalty at this point—but her trophy shelf still lacks a certain glittering gem: an Emmy. This fact was broadcasted to the world like a breaking news alert during the 2024 Emmy Awards.

On a star-studded Sunday evening (September 15) at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles—an establishment presumably filled with actual peacocks—Padma took the stage with her sidekick for the night, Sam Richardson of Veep fame. Sam, fresh off his recent Emmy win for his role in Ted Lasso, was in the mood for some lighthearted jabs.

“So, Padma,” Sam inquired with a mischievous grin, “how many times have you been nominated for an Emmy?”

Padma, the epitome of grace, revealed her impressive tally of 16 nominations. You’d think by now she’d have built a trophy fort in her living room. But no, when Sam pressed on about how many awards she’s actually snagged, Padma had to sheepishly admit, “None.”

The irony? She was presenting the award for Outstanding Reality-Competition Program—the very category that’s been a recurring guest at her nomination parties. It’s like showing up to a potluck where you’re always the one who brings the uninvited fruitcake.

So here’s to Padma: still waiting for that elusive Emmy win, but looking fabulous in a Brunello Cucinelli gown and Stuart Weitzman shoes. Someone get this woman a trophy before she starts re-gifting those nominations!
