Kristen Bell Earns First Emmy Nomination for Netflix Comedy

Kristen Bell made a striking return to the 2025 Primetime Emmy Awards red carpet, wearing a black and white backless Giorgio Armani Privé gown with a sheer skirt adorned with sequins and crystals, paying homage to the late designer Giorgio Armani. Bell, nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in Netflix's "Nobody Wants This," complemented her look with minimal jewelry and a half-up, half-down hairstyle, while her husband Dax Shepard also donned a Giorgio Armani tuxedo. This marked Bell's first Emmy nomination and her first attendance since 2019, where she also wore a backless gown. The Emmy ceremony, held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles and hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze, featured other stars like Catherine Zeta-Jones, who wore a revealing semi-sheer black gown. Leading nominees included "Severance," "The Penguin," "The White Lotus," and "The Studio." Bell's series, "Nobody Wants This," was a sleeper hit with over 26 million views shortly after release, earning the show a second season and additional Emmy nominations.
