A win for one is clearly a win for all.
On the show they are a family - albeit not by choice - and even when the cameras stop rolling they are still a team.
Uzo Aduba was treated to a hero's welcome at the Netflix Emmys after party by her Orange Is The New Black co-stars on Sunday night.
Party time! Uzo Aduba - and her new golden friend - was treated to a hero's welcome at the Netflix Emmys after party held at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, California, on Sunday night
With her Emmy joining her as her plus one to the event, the 34-year-old was greeted by elated screams as she walked into the famed Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, California.
While the actress' speech was filled with tears - mostly of joy, as she walked into the hotel it was filled with smiles, none bigger than her own.
Her fellow cell block bunkies Danielle Brooks, Taylor Schilling and Yael Stone were ready and raring to celebrate the Boston-born actress' great achievement.

Two for two: The actress was joined by Netflix Head of Content's Ted Sarandos to mark the second time in two years that she has won an Emmy for the same role, this time getting top honours in the Best Supporting Actress in a Drama category
As Uzo pointed at each of them in thanks, the ladies made it clear now was the time to party and have a blast.
Obviously not wanting to miss a moment of her big celebration, Uzo went straight to the after party still dressed in her stunning pink and navy halterneck dress by Jonathan Cohen.
But now, of course, she had an even better accessory then just a standard clutch or some diamonds - she had her Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama.
The statue was her second in as many years, having taken out Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for her same role of Suzanne 'Cray Eyes' Warren, after OITNB's category was changed.
Blonde bombshells: Both OITNB star Taylor Schilling and Robin Wright stunned in their gowns at the party
White hot: Also attending the event were some of the other talents behind the inmates of Litchfield Penitentiary including Taryn Manning and Laverne Cox, who had swapped her simple yet stunning blue dress for a very similar white one
While it may have been her second win, the star was still both humble and very thankful to have won.
Taking to the stage to accept her award during the Emmys presentation, she said: 'I really just want to say thank you a thousand times.
'If I could say thank you a thousand times, it would not be enough to cover the amount of thanks I feel for you, [show creator] Jenji Kohan. I love you so much.
Lovely ladies: Joining in the celebrations was Natasha Lyonne, who wore a sultry but glamorous black strapless gown, Laura Prepon, who changed into an elegant high-necked look
Suit star: Also attending the event was OITNB star Lea DeLaria, who rocked a striking maroon suit
'I thank you for putting belief back in my heart. Thanks for making the show, creating the platform. Thank you to our family at Netflix and Lionsgate. You are incredible. I love you so much for your kindness."
And for her lovely co-stars: 'I love you guys and I'm so thankful to stand beside a set of artists who are so brilliant. I want to say thank you to our team, my team that I work with...you guys are incredible and I love you mostly because you let me be me.'
Also attending the event were some of the other talents behind the inmates of Litchfield Penitentiary including Taryn Manning and Laverne Cox, who had swapped her simple yet stunning blue dress for a very similar white one.

While it was Uzo and Orange Is The New Black's night, the party also saw a who's who of Netflix's roster and Hollywood in general kick up their heels at the famed hotel.

Her fellow House Of Cards co-star Kevin Spacey was seen working the room catching up with those responsible for bringing his show to the screen and also other Netflix stars.
Fan favourite: The true man of the night was Netflix's Ted Sarandos, who every star seemed to be a fan of, including Ricky Gervais
New role? Perhaps wanting to get in on the action, Ricky grabbed the place setting with Ted's name on it which he found hysterical
Date night: The actor and his partner Jane Fallon matched in dark blue ensembles for the evening
But the true man of the night was Netflix's Ted Sarandos, who every star seemed to be a fan of.

Netflix has continued to show it is a force to be reckoned with despite being a subscription based network.
The streaming service was nominated for a staggering 34 awards and had several wins including Uzo's.
Hot on its heels however, is streaming newcomer, Amazon, which was nominated for 12 Emmys with its critically acclaimed Transparent earning a Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for Jeffrey Tambor.
