We just really love Michelle Williams. Emmys
"Thank you so much ... we've worked so hard to make this TV show," she said in her acceptance speech."I see this as an example of what's possible when a woman is trusted and feels safe enough to voice her needs and is respected enough to be heard."
"Thank you so much to FX," she continued,"for paying me equally. Because they understood that when you put value into a person, it empowers that person.", where she explained what went into preparing for the role and her highly anticipated return to TV. "It's a lot," Williams, 39, confessed."I mean, you start researching as soon as you get the part. There's, like, one good moment when you get the job and then the panic sets in and you go to work."
"It was pretty much, like, the longest job of my life," she added."We just wrapped [filming] a couple of weeks ago, and we started in August. It was physical in not just the dancing, but in aging and figuring out how to physically change somebody from 29 up to 64 -- figuring out how that would affect their body.
"She was really instrumental for me, emotionally and from a research perspective," revealed Williams, who made her own Broadway debut in the 2014 revival of ."And as a friend, as a mother and somebody who was there as a child while all this was happening and now has adult eyes on it. She meant the world to me."
