Last night’s Emmys received a much-needed dose of electricity when Jonathan Van Ness, Tan France, Bobby Berk, Antoni Porowski, and Karamo Brown (a.k.a Queer Eye’s Fab Five) hit the stage to present the award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. No one was more excited to be there than Van Ness, though, who spent basically all of Emmys weekend geeking out over his favorite celebrities—so, in other words, doing exactly what you or I would do.

It all started at the Annual Netflix Emmy Nominee Toast on September 15 in Los Angeles. In between chatting up his Queer Eye co-stars, Van Ness found some time to kick it with Diane Keaton. Just look at his smile in the pic, below. He’s very aware he’s in the presence of royalty and no doubt asked Keaton, “Where the hell is your Oscar for Something’s Gotta Give?“

Van Ness posted the same photo to his Instagram account and captioned it, “The defining moment of my life, like you guys. When I looked up and saw none other than Miss Diane Keaton, I clutched my pearls and gasped in a silently audible way from my heart chakra I’ve never heard. My fashion icon, my First Wives Club icon, my world. Omg.” Don’t tell me you wouldn’t post literally the same caption verbatim if you were in this situation. We all would. We all love First Wives Club.

At the same party, Van Ness also posed for a pic with Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown, writing on Instagram, “Eleven degrees of OMFG.” Relatable content.

The actual Emmys were just as exciting. Here, Van Ness is pictured laughing with Mandy Moore and (in my mind) thinking, “Please let me style your grandma Rebecca wig on This Is Us.”

It’s almost a given he’d pose for a group selfie with Will & Grace star Megan Mullally. Gay legends supporting gay legends!

Tina Fey would make a great addition to the Queer Eye squad, don’t you think? She could be tasked with making people funnier. (See her photo with the Fab Five, below.)

Van Ness later snapped a pic with The Crown star Claire Foy and called her “mom” on Instagram. Spoken like a true super-fan!

And he essentially wrote the same thing about his photo with Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke: “Found my dragon mum.” (Van Ness created a known parody series of GoT called Gay of Thrones).

I’ve never felt more seen! Thank you, Jonathan Van Ness, for letting me know it’s OK I haven’t stopped crying about A Star Is Born since the trailer dropped. Deep down, we’re all just a bunch of stans.
