Highlights
- 'What a night it's been at the Emmys,' said Priyanka Chopra
- 66 per cent of the Twitter users liked Priyanka's 2017 look
- 34 per cent liked her Jason Wu ensemble
Priyanka Chopra walked the Emmys red carpet in a stunning embellished Balmain white gown and stole everyone's heart. Last year she had a similar effect on the Internet when she twirled (more than walked) on the red carpet, dressed in a cheery Jason Wu chiffon dress. This year, Priyanka chose a dramatic makeover by pairing her white feathered gown with gothic eye make-up and Twitter seemed to have loved the change in Priyanka over the year. We conducted a poll, asking Twitter users which of the two looks sported by Priyanka Chopra they liked better - the dramatic Balmain in 2017 or the jovial Jason Wu in 2016.
Here's the Twitter verdict:
One user wrote in the comments section that they like liked neither while another wrote they like both - so that's well balanced.
By the time Priyanka Chopra's Indian fans woke up (the Emmys was hosted on Sunday night in Los Angeles),
compliments and memes (for the actress' 2017 Emmys look) in equal measure had flooded Twitter. Here's a sample:
Twitter also did not miss the gaffe at Emmys when an announcer
called some Priyanka 'Chopa' onstage to present the Outstanding Variety Talk Series Emmy with Anthony Anderson. The actress did not mind so much but Twitter was outraged on her behalf.
Priyanka Chopra, star of ABC's
Quantico,
was overwhelmed after she attended the Emmys and summed up her experience on Instagram as: "What a night it's been at the Emmys. Congratulations to all the winners, thank you for revolutionizing the world of television. So proud of the incredible artists that came together to make tonight epic."
Priyanka Chopra was last seen in
