In an emotional speech, Aduba thanked her mother, who came from Nigeria “to make a better life for her family.”

She also thanked producers and others for a show “that lets everyone be represented in such a beautiful way.”

Aduba won as best guest actress in a comedy series for her portrayal of Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren, while Jimmy Fallon was honored as best guest comedy actor for NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.”

On the drama side, guest-acting honors went to Joe Morton for ABC’s “Scandal” and Allison Janney for Showtime’s “Masters of Sex.”

Janney thanked producers, co-stars and writers on the series, then added one more person: “The crew guy who got me a shot of bourbon before my first sex scene was extraordinarily important to me,” she said.

Zach Galifianakis’ interview with President Obama last March on the actor-comedian’s “Between Two Ferns” show on the Funny or Die website won the Emmy for best short-format, live-action entertainment program.

Janney has a shot at another Emmy for her role in the CBS sitcom “Mom.”

The biggest awards haul Saturday went to NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” with five trophies. Fox’s “Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey,” a 21st-century edition of the 1980s series “Cosmos,” earned four. Cable dramas “Game of Thrones” and “True Detective” and PBS’ “Sherlock: His Last Vow” also picked up a quartet of honors each.
