The 2015 Emmy nominations are officially in, and the chosen lineup of stars and shows brought with it some curious snubs and pleasant surprises. Two people we're especially excited to see on the list? Amy Schumer — who's in the running for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for Inside Amy Schumer — and Tatiana Maslany, who got tapped for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her work on Orphan Black.
While fans were fast to congratulate these two deserving ladies, Schumer and Maslany were also quick to reach out to one another on Twitter. Schumer tweeted first to Maslany, writing, "ahhhhhhh!!! #notsnubbed."
It was sweet to see how obviously psyched she is about the Maslany's nomination. The Orphan Black star fired back her own enthusiastic congratulations. "YOU!!!" she wrote to Schumer. "YOU CONGRATULATIONS! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! You're my favourite one :) #veryfuckable."
@amyschumer YOU!!! YOU CONGRATULATIONS! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! You're my favourite one :) #veryfuckable
