Sheryl Lee Ralph may have found her next role.
After the Abbott Elementary star helped announce the 2024 Emmy Award nominees on a livestream July 16, scores of viewers praised her cohosting performance.
"Sheryl Lee Ralph has so much charisma," one person wrote on X, formerly Twitter, "she should host everything."
Another user tweeted, "I love Sheryl Lee Ralph announcing things."
While a host has not yet been named for the 2024 Emmy Awards, set to air live in September, the actress' playful and confident delivery on the nominations announcement live stream alone would be enough to serve as a successful potential audition for the gig.
A third fan even compared her to a certain famous TV mogul. "Sheryl Lee Ralph is announcing these #Emmys nominations with such Oprah-esque flair," the person wrote on X. "She needs her own talk show."
Another user was so impressed by the actress' performance on the Emmy nominations live stream that they wrote on X, "I think Sheryl Lee Ralph should get another Emmy for announcing the nominees."
The 67-year-old had won Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her role of teacher Barbara Howard in Abbott Elementary at the 2022 Emmys. While co-announcing the Emmys 2024 nominations with Tony Hale for the Television Academy, Sheryl was told she had received her third consecutive Emmy nomination in the same category.
After dancing excitedly in place, the actress responded, "Oh yes! Honey, that never gets old. Never gets old. Yes!"
The Fabulous Four actress—who earned one of Abbott Elementary’s nine nods—later wrote on her Instagram Stories, "Beyond blessed to have been nominated for my third Emmy Award today! Thank you so much to the @televisionacad and congratulations to all of the nominees!"
Sheryl will face off against her Abbott Elementary costar Janelle James, Palm Royale's Carol Burnett, The Bear's Liza Colón-Zayas, Hacks' Hannah Einbinder and Meryl Streep—who received a nod for her role in Only Murders in the Building—at the 2024 Emmys later this year.

"Wow," Sofia wrote in a statement. "Griselda was my first dramatic role ever, and it took us 15 years to bring her to life. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who was a part of this series. I could have never done this without my director Andres Baiz, my costar Alberto Guerra, Eric Newman and the full creative team, my partner and producer Luis Balaguer, Ted Sarandos, Bela Bajaria, and their team at Netflix, and all the amazing cast and crew."
And the America's Got Talent judge also nodded to her Emmy-winning roots.
"I never dreamed that after Modern Family I would be able to work on something as special as Griselda," she added. "I’m honored to be recognized alongside Jodie, Brie, Juno, and Naomi, incredible women who gave us incredible TV this year. Thank you to the Television Academy for this incredible honor!”
"It’s a real honour for me and the whole creative team for BECKHAM to be recognised by the TV Academy," the soccer star wrote. "Making this series was such a personal journey, a love letter to football and my family. It has been overwhelming for me and Victoria that we have had such a warm and positive response to the series. I’m so grateful to the incredible team led by Fisher Stevens and also to all those people from my life and career who took part and who have played such an important role in my story.”
Upon being informed she'd nabbed her second Emmy nomination for her Abbott Elementary performance by Television Academy Chair Cris Abrego during the July 17 nominations livestream, Sheryl exclaimed, "That never gets old!"
"90 percent sure my pottery studio thinks someone I love just died because I yelled WHAT and then started sobbing when i got the text that GIRLS5EVA WAS NOMINATED FOR 2 EMMY AWARD," the star wrote in an emotional Instagram post. "CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR FEARLESS LEADER @scardinoandsons AND ALL OF OUR WRITERS FOR THEIR NOMINATION FOR WRITING AND @sarabareilles FOR HER NOMINATION FOR BEST SONG FOR HER GENIUS SONG "MEDIUM TIME." A REMINDER THAT ALL 3 SEASONS OF THE BEST COMEDY YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED IS AVAILABLE ON NETFLIX SO GET INTO IT!!!!"
“I am still amazed by what we accomplished in 1985 and I’m even more amazed after receiving an Emmy nomination for The Greatest Night In Pop," Lionel said. "It has been an absolute joy to be able to bring this moment in history to life alongside Netflix. A big thank you and congratulations to all of the artists and participants for making “We Are The World” happen, and thank you to the Television Academy for recognizing our documentary.”
“I’m incredibly happy that Red, White, and Royal Blue has been nominated for an Emmy today," the director of the popular Casey McQuiston novel adaptation noted. "It reflects the hard work and talents of so many people who helped bring it to life. The film was made with love and I’m very grateful for all the love it has received in response.”
“We are so honored," the producers wrote. "We share this with Jen, Courtenay, Julie, Sue, Brianna and all the wonderful people at Amazon who have been so supportive. Casey McQuiston wrote a joyful, wonderful book that captured the imagination of readers everywhere. We were honored to be trusted to turn it into a film and are so grateful to Matthew Lopez and our cast and crew, especially Nick Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez, for this wonderful ride. Bringing hope and love into the world always feels worthwhile and we are most grateful to the fans for loving this film.”
