Actress Admits She Was ‘Beyond Surprised to Lose’ Emmy to Costar, Recalls Storming Out of Event

Robby Hoffman is coming clear a few meltdown second from final 12 months’s Emmys — admitting she stormed out of the ceremony after dropping the Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series class to Hacks price Julianne Nicholson on the 2025 Creative Arts Emmys.

Hoffman joined Hacks in its fourth season and stayed by means of its fifth and remaining season, which wrapped final month. The 36-year-old opened up concerning the second on the Tuesday, June 23 episode of The Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katyathe podcast hosted by Trixie Mattel and Kate.

“I felt like I had to manage your emotions because I wanted you to win, you wanted you to win,” Trixie, 36, Hoffman advised on the podcast. Hoffman joked, “As you know, it’s all rigged. I’m kidding,” earlier than admitting, “I was the biggest sore loser. I lose immediately. We’re the first award up. I immediately lost, and we woke up with all the gusto in the world.”

Hoffman stated she and her sister had been already “acting like we got the Emmy” earlier than the ceremony even started, regardless of dealing with stiff competitors, since, as she put it on the podcast, “the category is literally Olivia Colman, Zoe Kravitzit’s insane.”

“We’re beyond surprised to lose. I walk in, I’m already like, where am I going to put the Emmy?” Hoffman recalled on the podcast. “We lose immediately, my sister goes, ‘We don’t need this s**t’ and pushes me out. She grabs me by the arm. We’re leaving this s**t. We lose, and we leave, and we are stewing.”

Hoffman concedes that Nicholson, 54, “beyond deserves it.”

Hoffman was contractually obliged to return to the stage to current the cinematography class. “I had to present cinematography. I said, ‘Nah, I don’t want to do that anymore.’ They said, ‘No, it’s part of the program!’” she recalled on the podcast. “I used to be like, nicely, my circumstances modified. My circumstances have modified! I’m not within the temper, and so they need me to learn no matter’s on this teleprompter.”

Several glasses of champagne later, Hoffman calmed down enough to take the stage. “I get out there and I go, ‘I lost, there’s nothing to say, and it’s criminal that they have me presenting contractual in such a state.’ It brought the house down,” she said on the podcast.

Hoffman is married to Gabby Windeythe Bachelorette and Traitors alum, who she wed in a shock Las Vegas ceremony on January 11, 2025, after the couple fled the Los Angeles wildfires. Hoffman proposed by way of a customized crossword puzzle that spelled out “WILL YOU MARRY ME GABBY,” and the pair made their marriage authorized that April.
