Emmys: Variety Specials – Jennifer Lopez’s Double Bids Will Compete Against Stand-Up Comics Dave Chappelle and Ricky Gervais


2024 Emmys best variety specials pre-recorded/live predictions include Jennifer Lopez, Dave Chappelle, Ricky Gervais, Amy Schumer and the Oscars.

Returning nominee Trevor Noah presents “Where Was I,” competing alongside streaming counterparts Amy Schumer, Tom Segura, Mike Birbiglia, and Pete Davidson for a coveted slot.
