EVERYBODY was hoping after 18 being overlooked she would win it but Shemar Moore nailed down with those words PERFECTLY what we all were thinking. He was as excited as us all for her. Loved this moment!!!
The Lady in Red was Francesca James who played Kitty/Kelly who worked with the Late Peter White (Ex Linc) who as you know was in The Movie Version of The Boys In The Band.
+Terrence Moss The soap opera mags (Soap Opera Weekly, Soap Opera Digest, Soaps In Depth) usually predict the odds of each of the nominees winning the Emmy; that year, they all had Susan at 2:1 odds. It was then revealed after the show that Dick Clark Productions had bought extra time just in case Susan won.
The other nominees had all won an Emmy before. Every single one of them already had an Emmy, whereas Susan had never won. They’re fine, this was well deserved and far too long coming.
@@ruadhrose Do you even remember who the nominees were, dumbass? This was Melody Thomas Scott's first and only nomination so she obviously didn't have a previous win. Neither did Jeanne Cooper. It would be another nine years before she won her Emmy for acting. In 2004 she was given an Emmy for Lifetime Achievement but even that award came 5 years after Susan Lucci won her Emmy.
@@bophreyhumgart2953 Luna Rose was wrong and I called her out on it. DEAL WITH IT. Your inability to leave politics out of a non political comment speaks volumes about you, though, so I'd be real quiet if I were you.
RIP Helmut Huber, Susan Lucci's husband of 52 years. According to Susan, when Shemar Moore announced her name, she whispered in his ear, "Are you sure? Is it me?" And he replied tenderly, "Yes, honey, it's you." Just to see the love between the two of them in this clip is extraordinary.
Even after 19 years of not winning and finally breaking the streak, instead of using the rare moment to spotlight herself, the very first, second, third, fourth, fifth, final thing she did was repeatedly thank everyone else and even laugh at herself. Simply selfless. Susan is nothing like Erica. And, to this day, she's amazing.
She’s an extraordinary woman. So humble and gracious. She could have gotten up on stage and said it’s about dang time (and would have had every right to do so). Instead, she didn’t make it about herself. At all. The perspective she shared was just incredible. That the gifts her children had made for her to make her feel better about not winning were even more important to her than the statue she was finally getting to hold in her hands. I cry every time I was this. She’s amazing.
Funny story I went to a childhood friend's house and saw that his grandmother had a picture with shemar Moore in the living room, on closer inspection I realized that the picture was taken inside the living room. I told my friend why was shemar more in Grandma's house, to which we replied, that's my cousin. I told My mom and she lost her s*** and she's been trying to meet him ever since LOL
You know it's something incredible when the stars of the other soaps show the same enthusiasm as Susan Lucci did when her name was announced - an amazing display of love and respect for her being shown here.
The way the audience goes crazy just shows that everyone does care about each other even when they’re up against one another. Ugh. This makes me so happy
I don't even watch soap operas but I am glad she won. Can you imagine the years of humiliation...sitting in that audience, year after year. This video just makes me smile.
Makes me cry. I grew up watching ABC soaps with my mom and she was always our Queen of Daytime. My mom and I started screaming like Banshees and crying tears of joy when she finally won!
I seriously doubt that she ever felt even one second of humiliation. It's an honor just to be nominated and to be nominated 19 years in a row is a win in itself. Please think before you comment.
@@sueparras6028 No, to be nominated 19 times without winning is not an honor IMO. But you are entitled to yours. And I always think before I post an opinion. Please do the same before you start counseling anyone.
That has to be the most historic moment at the Emmys. I love how much respect she gets. Shemar moore did great with " the streak is over " the audience is so happy !
I just watched her recieve her life time achievement award and wanted to go back and watch her original emmy win. I remember watching her win this and screaming...It's about damn time. She is a living legend and it was well deserved. Still brings tears to my eyes to watch it 🙂
Calling this an "Historic Moment" is such an UNDERSTATEMENT. But this is indeed my ALL TIME FAVORITE live television moment, #Ever. Took far too long, but made the moment even more fantastic.
@@katierowen3166 ditto. I remember watching this live. My mom watched AMC from the beginning. My aunts, uncles and family have always watched soaps. My grandmother listened to the radio soaps. And my mom resembles Susan Lucci…gorgeous. Smiles
11-22-20: I LOVED her speech, but my favorite part was the last when she said, "I'm going back to the studio on Monday and play Erica Kane for all she's worth"!! And she did...YOU GO GIRL!!
And that day was my first day watching All My Children and i remember the episode like it was yesterday Janet and Trevor expose Vanessa because she was going to write a book about Erica Kane
Watched her since I was 10yrs old with my mom. Young & Restless followed by All My Children, every day during our summer days off from school. Tears of joy for her then and today when she won Life Time Emmy award. She is the epitome of class & grace, a true a legend ❤
My mom and I didn't have much in common. But we bonded over her favorite soaps. She worked graveyard shifts and when I was going to year round school, during the six week period we'd have off, we'd watch the four hour block of her shows...All My Children, One Life To Live, General Hospital, and my favorite...The Young and the Restless. I was actually on leave in the military and we were watching this awards show at home. When Shemar said "THE STREAK IS OVER" we yelled and hugged like we won something lmao. This is definitely the apex of the Daytime Emmy's...Erica Kane was a TV institution and Susan FINALLY winning that award is an iconic moment.
It doesn’t even matter how many times I have watched this (approximately 639 times including when it first aired in 1999), I bawl like a baby every time. Oh boy is Susan the epitome of class. Erica Kane has left an indelible impression on my life. 🥰
Spiderman how do you figure her to be racist?? He did do it the best. The whole entire moment was monumental. The way he awarded it, the way the applauded her for over a minute and a half straight 👏👏👏, and the gracious way she accepted her award.. The whole thing was utterly beautiful
Erika Michelle that was Shemar Moore giving that presentation?? It sure didn't look like him Unless he was wearing a different look from how I remembered seeing him on " Criminal Minds"
the looks her husband gave her i found touching. You could just tell when her name was announced you could just tell how much he loved her. He stayed composed to other people but you could just tell how much he loved her
He does adore her. Awhile back I learned about what the blogger "Enty Lawyer" of Crazy Days and Nights would call a "kindness", i.e. something kind a celebrity does without the benefit of publicity, involving Ms. Lucci; apparently she's donated at least $10 million to charity, so to honor her, her husband gave a dinner celebrating her charity work and invited a bunch of recipients of Susan's charity to the dinner. It's why I will never stand for any negative words being said about her.
Today 20 years ago Susan Lucci finally won her long awaited Emmy. Her win gave hope to the hopeless and all those who have been on the losing end. It was a rare win that no matter who you were you had to smile - even her rivals and many who felt she was not talented or was being paid to much or jealous of her success and popularity couldn't help but cry, cheer and applaud to the undisputed queen of daytime. An amazing moving speech matched by a shocking standing ovation so rarely seen. Wow. Her speech was just amazing - the bomb. This win had it all - class, beauty, elegance, meaning, drama, poignancy, passion, humanity, excitement and power.
You know it's bad when even the people who just watched the daytime Emmy's to see Susan lose couldn't stomach her humiliation anymore. Even those who didn't care for her began to feel sympathy towards her because what was supposed to be an honor in being nominated had became a repeated slap in the face. I remember when she finally won it became headline news and the most historical moment of the daytime Emmy's.
"Even those who didn't care for her began to feel sympathy towards her because what was supposed to be an honor in being nominated had became a repeated slap in the face." That's, so far, what the noms have been for Joey King-- she's had that award carrot dangled in front of her all four times this season (Emmy, Globe, Critics, SAG), and on the first three, she's had it whipped/whisked away by Michelle Williams and Fosse/Verdon. The good thing is, Joey has taken it in stride pretty much every time, and sooner or later, she'll get one (I hope they don't give it to Michelle and Fosse for all four on the SAGs). That is not to say that Joey has been winless for any kind of award, though-- she has won a Young Artist for Ramona and Beezus, and a Kids Choice for The Kissing Booth, so surely there's precedent and impetus!
I had never watched the Daytime Emmys (and I've never seen AMC), but on a lark I did that year, not to see Lucci lose, I was just following a hunch that her time had finally come. It was a great TV moment when she actually did win, and I was glad to see it live.
The moment Ms. Lucci won her 1st, & only Daytime Emmy Award was a real morale booster for my mother, & I, because we had just suffered a house fire the day before,, and our morale was at an all-time low.
I remember watching this live at a bar in Chicago. I swear, even drunks, homeless people and people that didn't speak English were celebrating that she finally won.
When this happened, my father and twin brother were at an SF Giants game. Midway through the game, they put up an announcement on the scoreboard that Susan had won the Emmy and everyone loudly cheered. That is how monumental this win is.
Erica was why I watched 'All my Children'. I love seeing what she was going to do next...hehe. It took her a long time to win the Emmy, but she was so gracious in her speech here. It shows just how good of an actor and person she is. So happy she won this Emmy finally.
I grew up watching Susan and her amazing portrayal of Erica and was super stoked when she finally won. It was a very well deserved and long overdue win for a soap opera diva and legend.
I don’t know why I randomly come back to watch this because I cry EVERY TIME. From the presenter’s announcement to the crying and excited audience to flipping Oprah! 🤯🤯🤯😭
They have these awards shows, so we as fans can listen to our favorite person give their speech. And they never miss the chance to chime in with music to stop the flow of the speech! Isn't that whole point of these shows, the speeches? Susan waited 19 years to give that heartfelt speech ❤and they cut her off? Classless.
I think this was by far the best award winning moment in history and it will probably be the best always because of her reaction of her humbleness of everything I think this was the best
This is one of the greatest moments in the history of any of the award shows. A Wonderful moment that reminds me that the unlikely can eventually happen and there can actually be fairness after injustice so to me it never gets old to watch.
Get a clue, Emmy producers- a daytime legend finally wins her Emmy after 19 nominations and the orchestra starts trying to play her off halfway through a not-very-long speech? Good for Susan to keep going and finish her thank-yous, with the audience firmly on her side.
It was okay...they did that music thing to rush the winner off the stage year after year because the show would start running too long...it was endearing to watch her get the same treatment and then watch the audience demand they give her extra time to finish!
Susan Lucci's win at the daytime emmy's was not a daytime emmy moment it was a moment in history. Her winning and her amazing speech and the cheers and applause was huge - on par with the Oscars or any other award . You didn't need to watch her or know her show - this was truly a historic moment. You could tell the love for her from Oprah to her adoring husband to the fans and fellow professionals. I do agree her losing was a ratings bonanza - after she won the ratings plunged and now the daytime emmy's aren't even on tv and certainly not prime time. You need to separate a legendary character and actress. Both are worthy.
She seems to be a very likable person indeed, which is why I suspect the audience is delirious with joy. Even at 00:27 she has the grace to appreciate her escort up the stairs with a thank you nod. She's actually trembling through her tears and you just want to go up there and give her a big hug.
The only soap opera I've ever seen is "One Life to Live" and even with that, this moment makes me cry like a baby. Combine that with how generous Susan Lucci is IRL and you better put respect on Ms. Lucci's name!
WHEN SHEMAR MOORE SAID THE STREAK IS OVER I JUMPED UP AND DOWN ON MY COUCH.! SO WELL DESERVED. IT'S SO SAD CAUSE SHE JUST RECENTLY LOST HER BELOVED HUSBAND. I LOVE YOU MS LUCCI. XOXO.
FINALLY!!!!!! I don't think she could believe it!!!! Susan, the number 19 is yours!!!! I was crying when she FINALLY WON!!!!!! A long time coming!!! Much love!!!
I was outraged that they piped that music up on her. Come on. 19 years her and the fans have been waiting for this a d it's the highlight of the show. I never even watched all my children. Lol.
remember that day!!! The show debuted the year I was born (1970).I cried right along with her.She deserved the award for every year that she was nominated. Great actress and a beautiful woman.
I wish they would put the whole All My Children episodes/seasons from when it started till the end on a DVD box set , it would sell a lot & pretty sure it would gain more fans of people who were not born at that time or who miss watching it !
3:57 The wrap up music started and Susan just kept on going and was like nope I'm going to give this speech till I'm done giving this speech and finally the music stopped.
And in true soap opera style, it stopped at just the right moment to magnify those final words - "I'm going back to that studio on Monday, and I'm gonna play Erica Kane for all she is worth, thank you so very much!" Mic drop!
She could hear Dick Clark over the headsets telling the producers to let her continue. But they kept flashing lights at her to get her to wrap it up. She waiting a long time (too long) for this moment. The fact that they tried to rush her is ridiculous.
If I were a soap actor and I was present, I would've screamed SHE WAITED 19 YEARS, YOU PEOPLE IN THE PRODUCER'S CHAIR CAN WAIT 19 MINUTES. #greatestmomentdaytimeemmyswilleverhave
*THE STREAK IS OVER: SUSAN LUCCI!!!!* Those words said by Shemar Moore are iconic!
EVERYBODY was hoping after 18 being overlooked she would win it but Shemar Moore nailed down with those words PERFECTLY what we all were thinking. He was as excited as us all for her. Loved this moment!!!
Susan said he is so charming.
The beautiful gracious Susan Lucci I cried tears of joy u sooo deserved to win love u God bless u great actress ❤
The Lady in Red was Francesca James who played Kitty/Kelly who worked with the Late Peter White (Ex Linc) who as you know was in The Movie Version of The Boys In The Band.
I feel like, of all the things he's accomplished, that's gotta be a proud moment for Shemar Moore.
The greatest moment in the history of the Daytime Emmys. The Queen of Daytime finally getting Her due.
yes indeed

Yesss, The Queen of Daytime
Yes it was! Hasn't been a moment like that since and never will be!
AMEN
The other nominees are like, "I ain't even mad about not winning! Take it home Susan!"
Barbara Kraemer as many times as Susan was nominated without winning and finally getting to win, I'd have been absolutely ecstatic for her

Such an iconic moment. I miss the show so much.
Me too is it just me or does anyone else miss, the soaps as much as I do, to bad they can not do reruns, I would watch😊😊
One of the best Emmy speeches ever!
Can’t stop crying 😭
This is one of the greatest moments in the history of any of the award shows. A Wonderful moment that reminds me that the unlikely can eventually happen and there can actually be fairness after injustice so to me it never gets old to watch.
Historic moment in television!!!!!!!
I'll never get tired of watching this. Susan Lucci will always be the queen of daytime tv. ❤️
Best acceptance speech EVER.
Amen she finally got it
Met this lovely, classy lady for the first time today and I never get to meet living legends like this woman. What an honour it was!
Just goes to prove, nineteenth time's always the charm!
Get a clue, Emmy producers- a daytime legend finally wins her Emmy after 19 nominations and the orchestra starts trying to play her off halfway through a not-very-long speech? Good for Susan to keep going and finish her thank-yous, with the audience firmly on her side.
Right????? So disrespectful!!!!
@@brentduanefoster Exactly! Let her have her moment!
It was okay...they did that music thing to rush the winner off the stage year after year because the show would start running too long...it was endearing to watch her get the same treatment and then watch the audience demand they give her extra time to finish!
SIMPLY OUTSTANDING AND SUSAN LUCCI IS BEAUTIFUL 😍😍 LUV THIS WONDERFUL NIGHT FOR THE QUEEN 👍👍🤗🤗❤️
Susan Lucci's win at the daytime emmy's was not a daytime emmy moment it was a moment in history. Her winning and her amazing speech and the cheers and applause was huge - on par with the Oscars or any other award . You didn't need to watch her or know her show - this was truly a historic moment. You could tell the love for her from Oprah to her adoring husband to the fans and fellow professionals. I do agree her losing was a ratings bonanza - after she won the ratings plunged and now the daytime emmy's aren't even on tv and certainly not prime time. You need to separate a legendary character and actress. Both are worthy.
Considering she is unanimously the Meryl Streep of soap operas, it definitely was historic.
She seems to be a very likable person indeed, which is why I suspect the audience is delirious with joy. Even at 00:27 she has the grace to appreciate her escort up the stairs with a thank you nod. She's actually trembling through her tears and you just want to go up there and give her a big hug.
The absolutely stunning Susan Lucci!
Her smile as she walked to the microphone 😭. The best acceptance speech of all time. This was LONG overdue. She is such a sweet and gracious lady.
The only soap opera I've ever seen is "One Life to Live" and even with that, this moment makes me cry like a baby. Combine that with how generous Susan Lucci is IRL and you better put respect on Ms. Lucci's name!
Amen!
Legend has it they’re still clapping for her to this day! Lol
WHEN SHEMAR MOORE SAID THE STREAK IS OVER I JUMPED UP AND DOWN ON MY COUCH.! SO WELL DESERVED. IT'S SO SAD CAUSE SHE JUST RECENTLY LOST HER BELOVED HUSBAND. I LOVE YOU MS LUCCI. XOXO.
RIP Helmut. May God give Susan the comfort and strength she needs.
💐Definitely a tear jerker!🤩🤗
one of the best moments ever for all of us who watch daytime
"Never give up, Never surrender!"
I think, this is one time when everyone in Hollywood is actually happy and not envious or bitchy that someone wins!!! Priceless
Susan RULED the ROOM!
👑❤️
Diva royalty!
FINALLY!!!!!! I don't think she could believe it!!!! Susan, the number 19 is yours!!!! I was crying when she FINALLY WON!!!!!! A long time coming!!! Much love!!!
So awesome - everyone genuinely happy and crying happy tears for her. Just wonderful
Has now officially been 20 years since she won. Time flies! What a great moment and win!
History will repeat itself: Shemar will present Susan with the Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's Daytime Emmys
Susan should also get an Emmy just for the speech 19 years in the making.. she's so amazing.
It was actually more than 19 years because there were 3 years she wasn't nominated.
This is one of the most generous, heartfelt, beautifully phrased acceptance speeches at any awards show, ever.
I remember crying in 1999, when she won. It was her time for too long.
She worked long and hard as an actress Susan Lucci long deserve it after nearly 20 years
Crying while watching this,in 2019
Crying watching this in 2021
2024 and crying too 🥹🥲
i remmeber my mom jumping up and down for this and im like 9 having no idea what she so happy for, now as an adult i get it 😭😭😭😭
I was outraged that they piped that music up on her. Come on. 19 years her and the fans have been waiting for this a d it's the highlight of the show.
I never even watched all my children. Lol.
Dang, that place erupted like someone just hit a game winning home run.
I stood up at home and was 👏👏👏👏
I remember watching this live. I was so happy you would have thought I had won. All these years later this moment still makes me smile.
remember that day!!! The show debuted the year I was born (1970).I cried right along with her.She deserved the award for every year that she was nominated. Great actress and a beautiful woman.
I wish they would put the whole All My Children episodes/seasons from when it started till the end on a DVD box set , it would sell a lot & pretty sure it would gain more fans of people who were not born at that time or who miss watching it !
Yes I would buy it too, to bad they can not do reruns of soaps like, they do everything else😢 am I the only one who misses the soaps, 😂💙💙💯
Legendary!!
3:57 The wrap up music started and Susan just kept on going and was like nope I'm going to give this speech till I'm done giving this speech and finally the music stopped.
And in true soap opera style, it stopped at just the right moment to magnify those final words - "I'm going back to that studio on Monday, and I'm gonna play Erica Kane for all she is worth, thank you so very much!" Mic drop!
She could hear Dick Clark over the headsets telling the producers to let her continue. But they kept flashing lights at her to get her to wrap it up. She waiting a long time (too long) for this moment. The fact that they tried to rush her is ridiculous.
If I were a soap actor and I was present, I would've screamed SHE WAITED 19 YEARS, YOU PEOPLE IN THE PRODUCER'S CHAIR CAN WAIT 19 MINUTES. #greatestmomentdaytimeemmyswilleverhave
No one EVER deserved it more!!!
