Selena Gomez went home empty-handed following this weekend’s Emmy Awards, but her amiable response at the Sunday ceremony is garnering praise for a surprise reason.
Last week, Gomez playfully demonstrated her “losing face” during an appearance on “The Tonight Show” with her “Only Murders in the Building” co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.
