2011 Emmy Nominees: Before They Were Stars
1 Comment
Check out Alec Baldwin in the ’80s soap opera Knot’s Landing, Christina Hendricks on ER, Amy Poehler in the cult hit Wet Hot American Summer, and more!
THE EMMYS ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER, AND CELEBTV IS TAKING A LOOK BACK AT SOME OF OUR FAVORITE 2011 NOMINEES -- BEFORE THEY WERE FAMOUS.
ALEC BALDWIN HAS BEEN KILLING IT -- AND NABBING EMMY NOMS -- AS “JACK DONAGHY” ON 30 ROCK SINCE 2006.
ALEC’S BEEN NOMINATED FOR BEST ACTOR IN A COMEDY SERIES EACH OF THE SHOW’S FIVE SEASONS – AND WON THE EMMY TWICE ALREADY.
BUT HE WASN’T ALWAYS PLAYING FOR LAUGHS. IN THE MID-80’s, HE SHOWED HIS DRAMATIC CHOPS ON THE LONG-RUNNING SOAP OPERA “KNOT’S LANDING.”
CHRISTINA HENDRICKS’ CONSIDERABLE ASSETS HAVE MADE HER A STAR ON “MAD MEN” – BUT WAY BACK IN 2002 SHE HAD A FOUR-EPISODE RUN ON “ER” AS ABBY'S FRESH-FACED NEIGHBOR.
BEFORE CRACKING AUDIENCES UP AS “CAM” ON “MODERN FAMILY,” ERIC STONESTREET SHOWED A FLAIR FOR DRAMA AS A LAB TECH ON “CSI”.
AMY POEHLER’S “PARKS AND REC” CHARACTER LESLIE KNOPE IS NO STRANGER TO BEING STRESSED OUT, BUT SHE’S GOT NOTHING ON “SUSIE” FROM 2001’s “WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER”.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE NOMINEES AT SUNDAY NIGHT’S EMMYS!
