Oh, happy day! The 2020 Emmy nominations are out, and Normal People‘s breakout star Paul Mezcal earned a nomination for best actor in a limited series or a tv movie of the category. In my opinion, the 24-year-old actor Irish is totally deserving of the recognition, and do not, it is not only because I keep dreaming about’connell Waldron the silver chain and still cry when I listen to Imogen Heap’s “hide.” The BBC and Hulu adaptation of Sally Rooney bestselling novel gave Mix his first role on the screen, but the actor performs so well that you would never know it.

And I know that you also have a swoon-worthy accent, Hugh Jackman, but I’m sorry to say that you simply can not compete with my man Mezcal. Again, I know that hot Irish accents, fierce blue eyes, and rugby-player thighs does not make the person worthy of a prize. I would be lying if I said that doesn’t help, however.

Seeing Normal PeopleI alternately wanted to hug him and shake him by the shoul
