Katt Williams Wins First Emmy Award For 'Atlanta" Guest Role As Earn's Crazy Uncle

Atlanta's season two premiered with an exceptional episode titled "Alligator Man" that followed the crazy happenings of Earn's uncle who had an alligator as a pet. It was none other than Katt Williams who played Earn's crazy relative and this past Saturday he won his first ever Emmy for his hilarious role. 

“The first two times I auditioned, I wasn't good enough and other people were better,” he told Complex. “I just kept at it, and then I interned at an alligator farm for three-and-a-half weeks, just so I could get comfortable enough that we didn't use a stuntman. I really adopted the alligator into my home. And became so comfortable with it that it was like working with another co-star.”

His win beat out the show's own creator, Donald Glover, along with Bryan Cranston (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Lin-Manuel Miranda (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Sterling K. Brown (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), and Bill Hader (Saturday Night Live).
