Learning of her historic Emmy nomination, Mj Rodriguez of Pose had one overwhelming feeling: "I felt so seen.”

"I felt represented and I felt seen,” said Rodriguez, who scored the first major acting Emmy nod for a trans performer. "And... more accepted than I have felt in a long time. I felt like my colleagues now see me, my acting colleagues see me, and the people who are surrounded by the arts see me, and how much I want to give the world the love to my craft and my art.”
