Rachel Bloom started the year with a Golden Globe win for her starring role in the CW sitcom “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.” A week later, she added a Critics’ Choice Award to her mantle.So, a 2016 Emmy nomination for lead actress in a comedy series seemed within reach.“It was a bummer,” Bloom acknowledged in a recent interview. “But, God,” she continued, “the fact that I was even in the conversation, on the short list to get any nomination, is unbelievable.”But she’s still a double nominee. The show received four Emmy nominations for original songs, main-title theme, choreography and single-camera editing and Bloom plays into the music nods.Those awards will among those presented at Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony, which, unlike next weekend’s prime-time show, in general celebrate technicians and others working behind the scenes. “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” casts Bloom as a New York lawyer, Rebecca, who, on a whim, abandons her posh but miserable existence to be with the love of her life, Josh .Problems are that her so-called “love” was a decades-old summer-camp crush who is engaged to another woman and now lives in California. And when Rebecca arrives, Josh has no idea why Rebecca is really there.television opening with a song telling you what the show is going to be, because it seems kind of cheesy and outdated,” Bloom said.Her nominated song is “Settle for Me,” a Cole Porter-esque ballad (co-written with Schlesinger and Jack Dolgen), which places Rebecca and Josh’s best friend Greg (Tony nominee Santino Fontana) in a lavish recreation of a Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movie-musical production number. “A dream come true,” Bloom said of creating that sequence. The 29-year-old Bloom has actually been down the Emmy road once before, as a 2015 nominee for co-writing the short-form ‘toon “Robot Chicken.” (The comic-fantasy “Adventure Time” took home the statuettes.) So, this time, she’s ready. Her date is husband, actor and show consultant Dan Gregor.
