Carol Burnett Makes History as Oldest Female Comedy Emmy Nominee

Carol Burnett, at 91, has made history by becoming the oldest female comedy Emmy nominee for her role in Apple TV+'s series 'Palm Royale.' This marks her 24th Emmy nomination, competing for 'Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series' alongside other talented actresses. Burnett's extensive career includes iconic roles in television, film, and theater, with notable achievements such as seven Emmy wins and induction into the Television Academy Hall of Fame. If she wins, she would be the first nonagenarian acting Emmy winner, potentially surpassing Betty White's record. The 76th Emmy Awards ceremony will reveal the outcome in September.
