There’s no higher accomplishment in Hollywood than becoming an EGOT winner.
While many stars have come close to completing the gauntlet, only 19 individuals have ever actually earned the prestigious title by receiving at least one competitive Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award throughout their storied careers. The most recent inductee into the elite club is Elton John, who won a 2023 Emmy award for his live special, Farewell from Dodger Stadium.
With the win, he joined a coveted list of premiere talents including Audrey Hepburn, Whoopi Goldberg, and more. Check out the full list of EGOT winners below.
