The Emmys’ reclassification of HBO’s “The White Lotus” as a drama (from limited series) could slow 2022 winner Jennifer Coolidge’s awards roll. But Coolidge, who lent new electricity and nuance to the role of troubled heiress Tanya in Season 2, never has been easy to categorize, or count out.

Groundlings vet Coolidge became a big-screen sensation in her late 30s, delivering hilarious, high-profile performances in “American Pie” (1999), “Best in Show” (2000) and “Legally Blonde” (2001).

Coolidge appeared in “Pie” and “Legally Blonde” sequels, Christopher Guest’s “Best in Show” follow-up “A Mighty Wind” and on “Sex and the City” and “Friends” in the same year.
