Emmys 2016: Tatiana Maslany's win rules Facebook, Twitter

When all the Emmy Awards speeches are done, only one winner can reign supreme on social media. This year, the night belonged to Tatiana Maslany, whose best actress victory for BBC America’s Orphan Black became the most talked-about Emmys moment on the internet.

According to Facebook, more than nine million people had 14 million interactions focusing on the Emmys, and the No. 1 person on the social media site was Maslany. She was also No. 1 on Twitter, where users reacted to the Canadian actress’ first Emmy win for her critically acclaimed performance and impassioned acceptance speech. It’s been a long time coming, as Maslany has been portraying various clones with unique accents, mannerisms, and looks throughout the series’ four-season run.

Coming close behind in the No. 2 spot on Facebook is Game of Thrones, which landed at No. 3 on Twitter. The fan-favorite series had arguably its most pivotal moment at the Emmys, making history by earning more Emmys than any primetime series ever. Meanwhile, Twitter’s second place goes to Rami Malek, who won the trophy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series thanks to his performance as Elliot on USA Network’s Mr. Robot.

As for No. 3 on Facebook, Sterling K. Brown’s win for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or TV Movie for his performance as prosecutor Christopher Darden in The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story had people talking, while that memorable acceptance speech only made it a bigger deal.
