"The Medford native won Best Comedy Guest Actress for her role as the Hollywood-newbie/ total train-wreck Dance Mom on HBO Max's "Hacks." Nicholson won her first Emmy for " Mare of Easttown " in '21 for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series. But what's remarkable about this win: we don't often (or ever) see Nicholson in such a slapstick/physical comedy role."
"Then to spin 180 degrees to portray a complex villain like Sinatra on Hulu's brilliant Emmy-nominated "Paradise" in the same TV season feels like a high-water mark in a career that's been a wave slowly cresting for years. The Arlington Catholic High School alum was also nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her work in that series; Katherine LaNasa of "The Pitt" won the category."
Julianne Nicholson, a Medford native and Arlington Catholic High School alum, won the Emmy for Best Comedy Guest Actress for her role as the Hollywood-newbie/total train-wreck Dance Mom on HBO Max's Hacks. Nicholson also portrayed Sinatra, a complex villain on Hulu's Emmy-nominated Paradise, earning a nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. Nicholson previously won an Emmy in 2021 for " Mare of Easttown ". Colleagues praised her dramatic skill and ability to play grounded comedic characters, noting the contrast between her slapstick role and her dramatic villain as evidence of substantial range. She appeared at both the Creative Arts and Primetime Emmy ceremonies.
