He, with the help of a cop, tries to negotiate his way out of the unfortunate situation.
In a photograph by Lauren Desberg and makeup by Galaxy San Juan, Jones shared her Emmy win with a node to powerful women, “..may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them.”
Here’s to strong women: may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them. #Emmys2020 🕊
