Melissa McCarthy brought home an Emmy this weekend for her memorable impersonation of former White House press secretary Sean Spicer on "Saturday Night Live."
The actress won an Emmy for best actress on a comedy series at the Emmy’s creative arts awards Sunday, according to The Associated Press. The awards are a precursor to the main show next weekend.
McCarthy’s impersonation of Spicer, featuring her driving a podium through New York City, firing a water gun at reporters and repeatedly threatening to run them over with the podium, drew wide praise.
There are very few positives to take away from the Trump presidency (And THAT'S an understatement if ever there were one.) but McCarthy's impersonation of "Spicey" was certainly my favorite.
It pure joy watching what McCarthy did with these skits, and I firmly believe that the fact they upset Trump so much is part of the reason that Spicer ultimately got the big heave ho.
Here let's just take a moment to remind ourselves why she is so deserving of this honor.
Yep, still makes me laugh myself sick.
Made even better by the fact that you just know this is really fucking with Donald Trump's day.
