Bad Bunny and Sabrina Carpenter Emmy wins

Overview

At the 78th Creative Arts Emmy Awards held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show starring Bad Bunny set a record as the most decorated halftime performance in Emmy history, winning seven awards out of nine nominations. The production, titled ‘The Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show Starring Bad Bunny’, secured Outstanding Variety Special (Live) along with honors for music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction/camerawork, and directing. This win marks the first time a Spanish-language program has won in the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) category.

Bad Bunny’s win marks his first Emmy Award. Additionally, an episode of ‘Saturday Night Live’ hosted by Bad Bunny in October 2025 won an Emmy for Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Program. Other notable winners included executive producer Jay-Z and music director Miguel Gandelman. The halftime show, which featured guests such as Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, was noted for its cultural emphasis on Latin American identity.

Sabrina Carpenter earned her first Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) for her work on the Disney+ special, ‘The Muppet Show’. Apple TV+ emerged as a dominant platform, led by ‘Widow’s Bay’, which secured eight awards. Other recognitions included ‘The Pitt’, ‘The Traitors’, and ‘Spider-Noir’, which won five awards despite being canceled before broadcast. In a posthumous honor, actor and director Rob Reiner won Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in ‘The Bear’ following his death in December 2025. The Creative Arts ceremony sets the stage for the Primetime Emmy ceremony on September 14, 2026.
