This year’s ceremony was originally scheduled indoors at the Microsoft Theatre, but recently moved to an outside deck overlooking the city.
The reunion, which finally aired in May after COVID delays, earned a total of four nominations, including Outstanding Variety Special, Production Design, Lighting Design and Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special.

In May, Aniston boasted about being ‘fully vaccinated’ in a throwback photo from a Variety photo shoot from 2019 shared to Instagram.
She stood with her hands in the air while wearing a sleek black ensemble to mark the proud occasion as she joined the millions of people in the US protecting themselves from COVID-19 with a vaccine.
‘Fully vaccinated and it feels soooo good,’ she captioned the shot using a musical note and flexed muscle. ‘We are extremely lucky and privileged to have access to Covid-19 vaccines in the U.S. right now.’

‘Thinking about those who do not or will not have the opportunity to get vaccinated and hug their friends and family. See more in my bio for ways to help those who need it during this crisis.’
