Emmy Awards 2019 winners list: LIVE UPDATES here

The 2019 Primetime Emmy Awards will take place without a host! Yes, it's true! The news was confirmed by Fox Entertainment CEO Charlie Collier. It was in June that the news of producers and the television academy to go without any host this time surfaced.The much-awaited event honours the excellent work of people in the TV industry and is scheduled to take place on September 22, this year.

The last time that the Emmy Awards were held without any host was in 2003 when the show also aired on Fox network.

Talking about the decision to go hostless, Collier said "we've had a lot of names on the board. But the conclusion we've reached is that in this year when we're highlighting so many shows that are going away that it would be a really strategic use of the Emmys to not have a host."
