From Disney covers, to A Very Potter Musical, to Glee and now to winning an Emmy for American Crime Story. Darren has reached so far in 10 years, and as the huge fan I am of him, I'm personally so proud and happy for him! Go Blue
I remembered Glee and after the kiss, I was like "Oh, so he's straight" (Sorry if this was a well-known fact, I'm from Brazil and I definitely do not follow the celebrities lives up close)
Is anyone else FREAKING OUT god I just feel like it was yesterday he was Harry Freaking Potter and doing terrible video quality covers of I'll Make A Man Out Of You and here he is winning a FREAKING EMMY I'm screaming and laughing and crying this is nuts! You deserve it Darren!
What I love the most about this is how everyone was really rooting for him to win. Everyone’s reaction was amazing, specially Ricky’s. Just love it! So very well deserved!
There is no competition here. Darren deserves this more than anyone. He played Andrew Cunanan with exceptionally charged emotions and understated elegance. A show-stopping scene-stealer. (I love Benedict Cumberbatch though)
From the moment I saw the scene w him in the parked car hysterically crying/laughing/in astonishment & disbelief (either after he killed Versace or after he realized they were looking for him) that he would win... he literally carried this entire season and I totally didn't expect that- I didn't even realize it would be an Andrew Cunanan story lol
I love how the comment section is just a reunion of all of those of us who his songs for 99p on itunes over a decade ago and now here's our guy getting a god damn Emmy! He really was the best teenage crush I could have asked for.
I think this is the best win I've ever seen on the Emmy's! Darren Criss made me cry and feel pity for Andrew when he played that character! I know that Andrew did awful things but Darrin made him human and I loved watching the series, it was my guilty pleasure! Thank you Ryan Murphy for taking a chance on this exceptional young man!
So proud of him. To all those who continue to say the guy from glee... please do research.. his own theater company in college, smash CZcams series Harry Potter the musical, glee, how to succeed in business and hedwig on broadway! Not to mention all the piano bars! He works hard and deserved this Emmy!
Meeting Darren only a couple months ago and seeing him win this well deserved award just makes me want to cry my heart out. I’m so happy for him and can’t express how thankful I am that I had the opportunity to meet him and know him the beautifully amazing person he is.
aww ricky's reaction was so cute and mia is adorable AND I'M SO PROUD of himmm i've been a fan for a very long time he's like, the only actor i follow shit i'm emotional i can't even write okay bye
100% deserved! He was so good in that series, it's been a couple of months since we watched it and i still remember every second of his performance. Awesome!
I've been following Darren's work for nearly half of my life, which is a wild thing to say when i type it out. But it's true. And I am so beyond happy for him, and cannot wait to see what he does next.
*Completely* deserved, he was just fantastic in that series. That bar scene with Aimee Mann playing Drive was so touching. Even though he plays a murderer, he still manages to make you feel for him, lol.
I just finished binge-watching American Crime and I agree that he deserves this award. He's such an awesome actor in the series. He gave me goosebumps watching him. Might even have nightmares because of his performance... not a bad thing. He was really great on the show. Kudos to you, Darren!
I teared up watching this. I have followed his career since the old youtube disney covers days and I feel extremely proud of all his accomplishments. Go Darren, you have a brilliant future ahead! Also, the way he thanks his family and Mia, he is truly a nice person, I'm still crying
Well-deserved win, Darren! You were convincingly good portraying Andrew Cunanan’s character in ACS: The Assassination of Gianni Versace where you were practically the whole story of the series. You were competing against other great actor nominees, but I knew from the very start that this category was yours to win. Congratulations on your first Emmy win!
His portrayal of Andrew Cunanan was unbelievably outstanding. This was without a doubt Darren’s moment. 🙏🏼 I’m so glad he was recognized for this role... and I thought Ricky Martin’s reaction was the sweetest. ♥️
I haven't gotten to watch it yet, but let's be real... it's Darren Criss. I'm sure he did a terrific job. So proud of him! And to think the first time I saw him was on AVPM.
i feel like his proud mother or something oh my gosh. seeing him throughout his career , i can't believe we're here now. he's done so amazingly well and it's so well deserved. also him and mia are so adorable together. i couldn't ask to be a fan of a better person, tbh
We all know he worked his ass off to get here!!! I'm sooo happy and proud!!!! Darren was soooooo good at ACS that it was just about a matter of time for him to be recognized like this 💗👍
Darren Criss's performance as the serial killer Andrew Cunnanan who murdered several men including Gianni Versace is so good it made feel a little sorry for I have always been a fan of Darren, well-deserved victory for a very good actor, I love him, he is the best.
Insanely proud. He's been working so hard in the industry for years, doing what he loves but not getting enough spotlight and now here it is. I hope he'll be appreciated more as he really deserves it. With love, Mama XXX
He said "Go Blue!" I yelled "Go Blue" at the LM/DC concert I went to and he called it out. I'm going to just tell myself it is connected. He so deserved this!
He absolutely killed this role and is so deserving of this award!! So glad he was recognized for his acting in this part and that it didn't go unseen, congrats Darren!!
that is the sweetest thing. forget teenage dream, remember avhpm? amazing man with outstanding character. he deserves every good thing he's worked for👏🏾👏🏾💕
THIS BOY USED TO MAKE DISNEY COVERS IN HIS DORM ROOM I FEEL LIKE A PROUD DAD
I knowww right!? Like... this adorable goober: czcams.com/video/mVvdHvI9tuE/video.html is now an Emmy winner!! :'D
I know right?! The guy who accidentally went viral for a Harry Potter parody musical is officially an award-winning actor. I'm so proud.
Stop I’m crying
🙌😂 this
RIGHT!!
From Disney covers, to A Very Potter Musical, to Glee and now to winning an Emmy for American Crime Story. Darren has reached so far in 10 years, and as the huge fan I am of him, I'm personally so proud and happy for him! Go Blue
Go Blue is what people who of cheering for the University of Michigan say. Darren went to U of M and was in AVPM there
So far who glee cast can move on without glee shadow is Darren Criss
@@sophiapulcini391- I thought he Meant Vote Democratic.
Watching Ricky Martin jumped up and down when Darren announced as winner...
"my bae's killer won!!"
Alia Ris yeeees the cutest thing ever!
Ricky is so sweet he wears his heart on his sleeve
Ricky is such a luvvie
I don’t get it
How is he related to Ricky?
I love how Ricky Martin jumped out of his seat he was so happy.
Well deserved.
Yeah, he was very happy for Darren Criss who truly deserves to win. He did the same reaction for Ryan Murphy who also won
Ricky is so sweet and enthusiastic, it's adorable :'D
Also, SAME Ricky, same ^__^
So proud of Harry Potter.
not even remotely alike
*Will Chin* Darren Criss co-wrote the music/lyrics, as well as played Harry Potter in the Very Potter parody musical.
ok now i know, then he should be VERY potter lol
I remembered Glee and after the kiss, I was like "Oh, so he's straight"
(Sorry if this was a well-known fact, I'm from Brazil and I definitely do not follow the celebrities lives up close)
Mia Harrison Minina, então eu não estava tão errado assim kkk
I was so afraid they wouldn't give it him since he is a former heartthrob and star of "Glee". This made my day. He deserved this.
Dena Spohn ermm, some Glee cast won Emmy for their roles in Glee tho..
He was a far cry from Blaine in this role. He nailed it
@@laramiaizz Please, "The Assassination of Versace" was a much higher quality production than the teenage musical drama series "Glee."
@@franconese01 and? That has nothing to do with the topic being discussed..
Former Heart Throb??
Started at Hogwarts, now we’re here.
What do you mean ? What's his connection to Harry Potter ? Many comments like these
Sagar Thorat he played Harry Potter in a parody musical called A Very Potter Musical, it’s on youtube if you wanna watch it lmao
@@sagarthorat9175
He wrote the music and starred in a Harry Potter parody musical, that's how he got on glee and became famous
Lauren Wylie YESS!!!
@Sabah M I THINK WERE GOING BACK
I'm so happy for him. I knew he was going to win an Emmy after I saw the first episode.
Marcio Miller No you didn’t
Yes it was quite something to see...
If anyone deserves to win an Emmy, it's Darren. I'm so proud!
Is anyone else FREAKING OUT god I just feel like it was yesterday he was Harry Freaking Potter and doing terrible video quality covers of I'll Make A Man Out Of You and here he is winning a FREAKING EMMY I'm screaming and laughing and crying this is nuts!
You deserve it Darren!
He's the first Filipino-American actor to win an Emmy Award.
What I love the most about this is how everyone was really rooting for him to win. Everyone’s reaction was amazing, specially Ricky’s. Just love it! So very well deserved!
Ricky and Judith's were my favorites. Judith threw her hands up, and both her and Ricky screamed. They were both so damn proud and excited.
@@KaijaSchmauss The entire cast won. Didn't "The Assassination of Versace" win best drama series?
@@franconese01 I think it did, but I don't remember for sure.
Who else has been here since AVPM and feels like a proud parent?
There is no competition here. Darren deserves this more than anyone. He played Andrew Cunanan with exceptionally charged emotions and understated elegance. A show-stopping scene-stealer. (I love Benedict Cumberbatch though)
100% agree!!
Totally agree, though I will say Jesse Plemons and Benedict Cumberbatch were exceptional in their roles.
From the moment I saw the scene w him in the parked car hysterically crying/laughing/in astonishment & disbelief (either after he killed Versace or after he realized they were looking for him) that he would win... he literally carried this entire season and I totally didn't expect that- I didn't even realize it would be an Andrew Cunanan story lol
Darren is talented but Ben actually made me cry my eyes out... HE should have won
I didn't watch Versace yet ! But i did watched Cumberbacth in Patrick Melrose, wonder how the hell he lost the Emmys ???
the way darren talks about mia makes my heart go 🦋🦋🦋✨✨✨✨
I'm so happy Darren won. I was so rooting for him after his incredible performance in American Crime Story as Andrew Cunnan.
True..that's right..
I actually hated him...but then I realized its bc he played his part so well, lol
100% rt
*Cunanan
I love how the comment section is just a reunion of all of those of us who his songs for 99p on itunes over a decade ago and now here's our guy getting a god damn Emmy! He really was the best teenage crush I could have asked for.
The start of Starkid taking over the world
And then they will plant flowers. And have snakes.
The reign of Darren is drawing near, he’ll have the greatest acting career, it’s gonna be totally awesome
I think this is the best win I've ever seen on the Emmy's! Darren Criss made me cry and feel pity for Andrew when he played that character! I know that Andrew did awful things but Darrin made him human and I loved watching the series, it was my guilty pleasure! Thank you Ryan Murphy for taking a chance on this exceptional young man!
he literally held his arm out to mia to pull him up like he couldnt believe it and oh my god my heart

The future of this kid is so bright! He deserve to be a movie star.

Well deserved win. He managed to humanise Cunanan while making him utterly terrifying at the same time.
Congrats to Darren.. He earned it.
Can’t get enough of this guy.
He said "Go Blue!"
I yelled "Go Blue" at the LM/DC concert I went to and he called it out. I'm going to just tell myself it is connected.
