"No bra? No heels? NO PROBLEM. Wearing PJ’s to the 72nd Emmy awards (from my house) is my kind of vibes. Excited to see if we win any of the 7 awards we have been nominated for!!!! I still did my makeup and wore a sequin dressing gown, because... It’s what Tahani would have wanted. And this is her day, not mine," The Good Place star Jameela wrote on Instagram.
