The Emmy Awards ceremony, which celebrates excellence in television, was the stage chosen by the actress to convey this message about the importance of maintaining a varied range of voices in the sector.

The article title also mentions Alan Cumming appealing to vote, although the body of the text does not include details about the Scottish actor's statements during the event.
