Megan Amram Just Wants To Win An Emmy (HBO)

The 70th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards are weeks away, and Megan Amram — a renowned comedy writer who’s worked on Parks & Rec, Silicon Valley, and The Good Place and is very popular on Twitter — is up for two awards. But Amram’s Emmy nominations have nothing to do with her TV work. They’re for her web series, An Emmy For Megan, which she hopes will catapult her from The Comedy Writer You Know From The Internet to The Emmy Winner You Know From The Internet. The whole series is about 30 minutes, beginning to end, and serves one simple purpose: win an Emmy. “I am very fascinated in the way that someone like Angelyne just decided that she was going to be famous and it didn't matter for what,” Amram told VICE News. “I feel like there's a parallelism to how Donald Trump ran his campaign where he just said you know ‘I'm here. I deserve this. Give this to me’ and I'm trying to have the bizarro nice version of the that.” An Emmy For Megan is not just a web series. It’s spun out into a real-life campaign. Between billboards, lawn signs, stands, and flyers, she’s spent over $12,000 on marketing — about 250% (Amram’s math) of what she spent making the series itself. If it all seems like a desperate grab for acknowledgment, that’s because it is. (Congratulations, you get the joke!) But at least it’s one with heart. “I really want young girls in America to know that they can just ask for what they want,” Amram revealed. “You don't need anyone to be there to say that it's okay to do something. You just need to read the rules and make sure you follow them so you don't get disqualified.” Subscribe to VICE News here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Check out VICE News for more: http://vicenews.com Follow VICE News here: Facebook:   / vicenews   Twitter:   / vicenews   Tumblr:   / vicenews   Instagram:   / vicenews   More videos from the VICE network: https://www.fb.com/vicevideo
