The 2015 Emmy nominations are here and, as usual, there are plenty of surprises to celebrate and snubs to angrily tweet about. The most joyous reactions, of course, come from the shocked (or, at least, pretending to be) nominees themselves.
"Outstanding Actress in a Comedy" nominee and reigning champ Julia Louis-Dreyfus released this statement in response to the good news:
As President, my staff and I are too busy doing the people's business to watch television. Nonetheless, we are thrilled to be a part of this celebration of creativity. (Go Jon Hamm!)
Triple nominee -- for acting, directing, and writing! -- Amy Schumer responded in the Amy Schumerest way possible. "I feel like I just had the best orgasm," she told EW. "We were jumping up and down on the bed screaming, we’re so excited."
"American Horror Story: Freak Show" star Sarah Paulson told EW that, even after four nominations, “I can’t imagine it would ever get old. And if it does, someone should take my SAG card away!”
Here are some of the best reactions to today's Emmy announcement, as shared by nominees.
