Euphoria also won the prizes for Outstanding Contemporary Makeup and Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics. Zendaya thanked her family, team and Euphoria creator Sam Levinson in her acceptance speech. “I know this feels like a really weird time to be celebrating,” she added. “But I just want to say that there is hope in the young people out there. I know that our TV show doesn’t always feel like a great example of that, but there is hope for young people. And I just want to say to all my peers out there doing the work in the streets, I see you, I admire you, I thank you.” On Euphoria, Zendaya plays Rue Bennett, a teenage addict struggling with her sobriety and recovery on the series that delves into sex, drugs, trauma and identity among high-schoolers.
