Since tonight's actresses didn't have to share the spotlight with their silver screen counterparts a la the Golden Globes, Kaley Cuoco became the reigning pixie queen of the red carpet. Her shimmery eyeshadow, rosy cheeks and pink lips balanced out the edginess of her choppy cut.
We've spent all year DVR-ing, binge-watching and avoiding spoiler alerts like the plague, all in the name of good TV. Tonight, our hard work finally pays off at 66th Primetime Emmy Awards.
