There are plenty of A-list stars nominated at the 2020 Daytime Emmys in well-known categories like talk show hosts Kelly Clarkson (“The Kelly Clarkson Show”), Jada Pinkett Smith (“Red Table Talk”) and Ellen DeGeneres (“The Ellen DeGeneres Show”), to name just a few, but with dozens of categories covering a wide variety of broadcast, cable and streaming programs, there are a number of other big-name contenders you might not have noticed without looking a lot deeper on the ballot. Click above for 20 celebs you might not have known were Daytime Emmy nominees as writers, producers and performers.
There’s at least one chance for the Daytime Emmys to right a wrong. Jason Alexander is nominated twice for “Brainwashed by Toons,” which explores some of the harmful tropes that have been perpetuated by children’s cartoons over the years. Alexander’s nominated tune, “The Bad Guys?,” looks at the history of anti-Semitic imagery.
