Did the Emmys Really Offer Redemption to Marcia Clark?

But despite previous refusals to be a "visible" LGBT actor, the star, while speaking to E! on a pre-show interview, said "Hi Holland, Holland Taylor, if you're watching, I love you".

Take a look at the video below to see Sarah Paulson talking about her Emmy win. And, later, when Orange is the new Black's Laverne Cox took the stage as a presenter, she reiterated Tambor's speech and called out Jenji Kohan for giving her a shot. "And, I swear to God, if the makeup trailer was at all shaky you'd be like, 'Oh, mole down!' It was a constant thing because they had to put it on with tweezers".

"I feel a little bit of pressure", she admitted in July. Paulson has spoken before about getting to know Clark very well for her role.

Sarah Paulson, left, and Marcia Clark arrive at the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, Sept. 18, 2016, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

She had previously been nominated every year since 2012 and never quite managed to pick up the prize, but now - for her portrayal of prosecutor Marcia Clark - her time has come.

"I'd also like to acknowledge the victor of tonight's plus-one contest - Sarah Paulson, who played Marcia Clark and actually brought Marcia Clark with her tonight", host Jimmy Kimmel said at the beginning of tonight's 68th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. "Where you lead, I just try to support".

As the O.J. Simpson murder trial played out in a courtroom in California and on TV screens across America, Johnnie Cochran dismissed Marcia Clark as "hysterical".

Sarah's previous Emmy nods were for her roles in Game Change, and then Murphy's American Horror Story anthologies. According to The L.A. Times, the actress asked security to let her guest through, and before long the two women were oggling the statuette touting both their names.

Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor are head over heels for one another.
