BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. \u2014 \u201cThe Crown\u201d star Claire Foy nibbled on a scone with jam and cream while \u201cTransparent\u201d star Jeffrey Tambor eyed the finger sandwiches, including English cucumber and egg and watercress.<\/p>\n

The two Emmy nominees were among the celebrated guests at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts’ annual pre-show tea party Saturday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.<\/p>\n

The soiree is one of more than half a dozen parties and events competing for nominees’ attention in the days leading up to Sunday’s Emmy Awards.<\/p>\n

One producer said she had been to five parties in the past two days. ABC President of Entertainment Channing Dungey said, \u201cYou have to pace yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n

The various pre-Emmy gatherings are more like networking events than cut-loose parties for guests like Jewerl Ross, an entertainment manager who counts filmmaker Barry Jenkins (\u201cMoonlight\u201d) among his clients.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe key is to not do too much,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Other stars on the party circuit Saturday included Evan Rachel Wood, Tracy Ellis Ross, Judith Light, Chrissy Metz and Gugu Mbatha-Raw.<\/p>\n

Stephen Colbert is hosting the Emmy show, set to be broadcast live on CBS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
