9/15 6:11 AM PT -- President and CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of America tells TMZ ... “What an incredible night! Our heartfelt thanks to Nate Bargatze, CBS, and the Emmy Awards team for supporting Boys & Girls Clubs in such a big way. It was a true honor for our Club Kids to share the stage with the night’s winners, especially knowing some of our alumni have gone on to become Emmy winners themselves."

"We are also deeply grateful to all who kept their speeches short in the spirit of this fun challenge and to maximize the impact for our young people. The generous $350,000 donation from CBS and Nate is a powerful investment in the dreams and great futures of millions of young people nationwide.”

Hollywood's elite are usually known for their charitable contributions ... but, Sunday night they took a whole lot more than they gave -- 'cause they bankrupted a $100K pot meant for charity!

Here's the deal ... in the lead-up to the 2025 Primetime Emmy Awards host Nate Bargatze told multiple outlets he had a way to keep the show on track in terms of time.

His plan was simple ... he was putting up $100K for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America -- and, each time an Emmy winner went up to give a speech, they had a chance to add to the total.

Sofia Vergara missed out on one of the biggest nights in Hollywood ... instead spending it in the emergency room, fighting what she calls the “craziest eye allergy.”

The "Modern Family" actress took to Instagram, showing a close-up pic of her puffy, watery left eye ... along with the caption, "Didn't make it to the Emmys but made it to the ER 🤣😩."

She apologizes for bailing on the Emmys ... saying the allergy flared up right before she hopped in the car.

The 2025 Primetime Emmy Awards are in full force right now ... and, we've got all the photos from inside the ceremony to capture the vibe of the evening.

Hopefully, no crimes are committed tonight ... but, if something does go down, the "Only Murders in the Building" cast -- Selena Gomez, Steve Martin and Martin Short -- are on the case!

Michelle Williams and her husband, Thomas Kail, tightly gripped each other's hands in their matching white outfits ... dressed to the nines for their date night.

Cooper Koch is up for an Emmy for his role in "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story" ... and, he shared a message from Lyle Menendez on the awards show red carpet.

The actor told Variety on the red carpet ... Lyle did reach out to him before the Emmy Awards with a sweet message -- but, also reminded him not to make it about the accolade.

Koch says Lyle told him, "All that matters is the awareness."

Stephen Colbert's showing it's never too early to start job hunting ... bringing his résumé to the Emmys to network since he's getting laid off next year.

The late-night talk show host took the stage to present the first award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series ... and, he kicked off the show by asking if anyone's hiring.

Of course, Colbert found out last month that "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" won't be renewed for next season -- in fact, CBS is doing away with "The Late Show" franchise entirely -- and, he told the audience he and 200 qualified staffers will need jobs come June.

Jenna Ortega set the tone for the 2025 Emmy Awards early ... stunning in a barely-there top that left little to the imagination -- and proved to be one of the hottest red carpet looks!

The TV star arrived in a blouse of what looked like loosely patched together baubles ... which revealed her ample cleavage and her toned stomach.

It's a daring look -- more so than Pedro Pascal or Sydney Sweeney who stuck to more traditional red carpet get-ups ... though Justine Lupe also got in on the skin-baring trend at the event.

Squished inside this celebrity mash-up is an actress who's no stranger to the limelight, but given the following clues, do you think you've got what it takes to unscramble and put a name to the unknown?

She may appear to be dazed and confused but that's just part of her acting charm ... Some may call her the "Queen of the Indies." She starred in the classic film "Best In Show" alongside many greats like Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara.

Before you go off "Kicking and Screaming", can you guess who this Emmy-nominated star is?

Brittany Cartwright isn’t just moving on -- she’s glowing up ... showing off her best self in a fresh IG drop, hot on the heels of dating her new man, Brandon Hanson.

Check out the pics from Thursday ... Brittany went full-on pink fantasy -- rocking a plunging top that flaunted her curves and topping it off with a fuzzy bucket hat that had her making a massive fashion statement.

She finished it off with butterfly clips, a chain belt, and the whole nine -- serving a total cool-girl throwback. Even Brittany stamped it herself with the caption "Y2K 🩷," a nod to the early 2000s.

Tiffany "New York" Pollard is making her TV comeback in "House of Villains" ... hyping Season 3 as the best one yet -- and hinting it’s all thanks to some juicy alliances in the mix!

We bumped into Tiffany -- plus Tyson Apostol and Tom Sandoval with his GF Victoria Robinson -- outside TomTom in West Hollywood Wednesday night ... and she spilled to TMZ that the show will serve up nothing but drama and chaos.

You gotta peep our video -- Tiffany’s throwing the guys some knowing looks ... teasing they might just team up for a super-stacked season when the show drops early next year.

Harry Jowsey is still hoping to work his way into Sia's "Elastic Heart" ... even though he's also "100 percent" committed to getting married on his new reality show.

We caught up with the Netflix personality at LAX airport on Wednesday, where Harry told us just how excited he is to find love on his upcoming show, titled "Let’s Marry Harry."

While Harry stayed tight-lipped on the specifics about the show -- claiming Netflix didn't trust him with the details due to his big mouth -- the "Too Hot to Handle" alum made it clear he's serious about tying the knot ... as he's ready to start a family with his wife, whoever that ends up being.

Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus made it a family date night at the National Television Awards -- hitting the red carpet hand in hand and joined by her son, Damian.

The actress and model turned every head inside London's O2 Arena, dazzling in a sheer silver gown that featured a plunging neckline and daring thigh-high split. She beamed by her country star boyfriend's side, clearly enjoying their night out together.

Billy Ray kept things sleek in an all black look, rocking a suede jacket and detailed trousers, while Damian brought his own flair in a striking white suit paired with a satin shirt. Together, the trio exuded serious star power and plenty of family pride.

Polly Holliday -- a veteran actress with roles in some of the biggest movies of the last few decades -- has died ... according to her longtime agent.

The star passed away Tuesday at her home in Manhattan, her agent and friend Dennis Aspland tells TMZ. He also told us Polly battled health issues for several years before dying of suspected pneumonia.

Holliday began her career on the screen in the mid-1970s ... grabbing parts in "All the President's Men" and "Distance" before she won a lead role on the hit sitcom "Alice."

Whoopi Goldberg may be 69 years old, but the showbiz vet is NOT eyeing retirement ... mainly because she "can't afford" it.

The Oscar winner revealed Tuesday she has no plans to exit "The View" after 18 LONG seasons -- but it's not her love of daytime TV hosting keeping Whoopi on the air ... instead, she's only working late in life due to not marrying "well."

It's raining rose petals on Taylor Frankie Paul -- 'cause she's the new bachelorette!

The 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' star was announced as the leading lady for Season 22 of the hit reality dating show on Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast on Wednesday.

This is a first for the franchise -- it usually casts well-liked suitors from previous seasons of "The Bachelor", and never someone who's already a reality star.

Brittany Cartwright is glowing with her new man Brandon Hanson, making it crystal clear -- it’s a whole mood compared to her estranged ex, Jax Taylor!

We spotted Brittany outside Casitas in L.A., and she set the record straight ... Brandon ain’t official yet, and she’s not calling herself his GF. Not yet.

Still, Brittany says it’s all about fun for now, Brandon’s making her happy -- and you have to watch the full video, 'cause she also spills on when they might make it official.

Charlie Sheen is gearing up for a Hollywood comeback ... hinting to us he has something else in the works after pulling together his memoir and a new docuseries, back to back.

We caught up with the actor Tuesday morning in NYC, where he was practically on cloud nine while discussing all the positive feedback he's received for his new book -- "The Book of Sheen" -- and his Netflix doc, "aka Charlie Sheen."

Per Charlie, he feels a lot better having everything out in the open ... including all the details about his past wild love life.
