LOS ANGELES — Former late-night host Craig Ferguson found gold in his switch to game-show emcee, winning a Daytime Emmy for “Celebrity Name Game.”
A beaming Ferguson called the honor “fantastic,” then thanked Hollywood for a job.
Ferguson stepped down last December from CBS’ “The Late Late Show,” now hosted by James Corden.
Other early winners at Sunday’s Daytime Emmys included Amelia Heinle, best supporting actress in a drama series for “The Young and the Beautiful,” and Chad Duell, best supporting drama actor for “General Hospital.”
