Candid Photos From The 2014 Emmys Red Carpet

With our free press under threat and federal funding for public media gone, your support matters more than ever. Help keep the LAist newsroom strong, become a monthly member or increase your support today.

The 2014 Emmys were held downtown yesterday, with celebrities from this year's best TV shows walking a very lengthy red carpet.

While some celebrities whisked by (looking at you, Julia Roberts and Peter Dinklage), some were more than happy to stop for a chat or to pose for a photo.

In full force was the cast of Orange is the New Black, as well as several actors from HBO's Game of Thrones. Unsurprisingly, many of them look much different when not in prison uniforms and armor. Other recognizable faces came from Mad Men, The Daily Show, True Detective and House of Cards. There was even an appearance by Gwen Stefani, who will appear on The Voice.

Perhaps taking a nod from Ellen at the Oscars, the selfie seemed to be a Red Carpet staple. Chris Hardwick even took one with us.

At LAist, we focus on what matters to our community: clear, fair, and transparent reporting that helps you make decisions with confidence and keeps powerful institutions accountable.

Today, on Giving Tuesday, your support for independent local news is critical. With federal funding for public media gone, LAist faces a $1.7 million yearly shortfall. Speaking frankly, how much reader support we receive now will determine the strength of this reliable source of local information now and for years to come.

This work is only possible with community support. Every investigation, service guide, and story is made possible by people like you who believe that local news is a public good and that everyone deserves access to trustworthy local information.

That’s why on this Giving Tuesday, we’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission. It just takes 1 minute to donate below.

Thank you for understanding how essential it is to have an informed community and standing up for free press.
Senior Vice President News, Editor in Chief
