Every Winner at the Daytime Emmys 2025
At this year’s Daytime Emmy awards on Friday, General Hospital scored the most wins for the night, with seven wins. During her speech for her Best Drama Actress win, Nancy Lee Grahn shouted out her fellow nominees, saying, “Ladies, we’ll share it, we’ll pass it around. We’re all friends.” After thanking ABC, Grahn took a moment to speak out against the Trump administration, ahead of No Kings Day on Saturday. “Along with this job, comes a literal soapbox, and my parents would be very disappointed in me if I didn’t use it right now to speak out for other people,” she shared. “Our democracy is worth fighting for. The people in it are worth caring about, caring about them, and whether you have a platform or not, now is the time, guys. Now is the time to show up, stand up, speak up for human decency. For democracy. Stand up and vote for it every chance you get. Stand up!” This wasn’t her first time during the night that she made a political statement. On the red carpet, Grahn and her guests wore purses with phrases speaking out against President Trump, like “No Kings” and “Democracy dies in silence.”
