Lawley’s nomination comes in spite of the fact that he was recently dropped by talent agency CAA after a video surfaced in which the social media star used the n-word. In total, Go90 secured nine Daytime Emmy nods: Six for Zac & Mia and three more for Relationship Status.

Another digital-native show that landed a big Daytime Emmy haul is EastSidersa drama created by Kit Williamson. Several months after arriving on Netflix, EastSiders secured six nominations.

This year’s Daytime Emmy ceremony will be held on April 29, with Mario Lopez and Sheryl Underwood hosting. A full list of nominees can be found here.
