Alexis Bledel stunned at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards on 14 September, as she presented an award with former co-star Lauren Graham. After several years of public silence, Bledel's surprise appearance sparked hopes that her long-rumoured hiatus from acting may finally be ending.
Bledel, most popularly known for her role of Rory Gilmore in Gilmore Girls and later Emily on The Handmaid's Tale, delighted fans as she reunited onstage with Graham. Stars Hollow's favourite mother and daughter tandem exchanged quips onstage reminiscent of their usual banter on Gilmore Girls. Adding to the nostalgia, they even stood on what looked to be their porch from the show.
