Celebrated actress Jasmine Guy has achieved her very first Emmy nomination!
The highly anticipated unveiling of the nominees for the 75th annual Emmy Awards took place on July 12, and among the esteemed list, there was a recognizable face receiving recognition for the first time. Jasmine Guy, a beloved actress, has earned a nomination in the “Outstanding Actress in a Short Form Comedy or Drama Series” category for her remarkable performance in the series “Chronicles of Jessica Wu.”
As described by IMDb, this Tubi series revolves around a young girl on the Autism spectrum who has mastered martial arts, becoming a hero in her city and courageously defeating some of the most ruthless villains in Los Angeles. Jasmine Guy’s character, Barbara Baldwin, captivates audiences in the episode titled “Wanna Get Away?”
Although this marks Jasmine Guy’s first Emmy nomination, she is no stranger to embodying iconic characters. Many recognize the talented actress, originally from Boston, for her memorable portrayal of Whitley Gilbert on the acclaimed series “A Different World.” With her impeccable performance, Guy brought to life the character of the privileged Southern belle throughout all six seasons of this beloved scripted show.
While Jasmine Guy has not made any public statements regarding her first Emmy nomination, fans of the talented entertainer have taken to Twitter to share their astonishment that she had not been previously recognized for this prestigious award. The announcement has sparked an outpouring of support and excitement from her dedicated fanbase, who eagerly express their belief that she is long overdue for such recognition. One fan wrote, “Awesome but it’s incredible that she received nothing for Whitley Gilbert.”
