Selena Gomez arrived at the 2026 Emmys on September 14 at Los Angeles's Peacock Theater wearing a gold Louis Vuitton gown that made a strong case for her being the night's real prize. The form fitting strapless design featured rows of beading from top to bottom, giving the Only Murders in the Building star a full trophy moment before the ceremony even began. Gomez finished the look with Tiffany and Co. gold and diamond drop earrings, silver cocktail rings, and a Bird on a Rock bracelet valued at $175,000. Her long black hair fell down her back, while glowing skin and minimal makeup kept the styling polished instead of overly busy. Could Only Murders Take Home Another Emmy? Gomez's comedy series, led alongside Martin Short and Steve Martin , competed for Outstanding Comedy Series against Abbott Elementary, Nobody Wants This, The Bear, Shrinking, Margo's Got Money Troubles, Hacks, and Widow's Bay. Only Murders in the Building has already collected seven Emmys across five seasons, and the sixth season, which will be the show's last, is filming in London. Gomez previously joked about her losing face on The Tonight Show in 2024, crediting a famous Friends moment and Jennifer Aniston for the inspiration. The 34 year old also had husband Benny Blanco , 37, in her corner after the couple married in September 2025, a relationship Gomez has described as deeply loving and rooted in friendship. Blanco has said he knew almost immediately that Gomez was the person he would marry, and Gomez has called him a bright presence in her life. Away from Gomez's gold entrance, Zendaya wore custom Prada with Mikimoto jewelry, Ayo Edebiri chose Chanel with Mikimoto jewelry, and Mariska Hargitay arrived in Monse.
