Beyoncé receives her first Emmy award, moving closer to achieving the prestigious EGOT title
Beyoncé, the globally acclaimed singer and entertainer, is now halfway towards achieving the prestigious EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) status. Here's where she stands in her journey:
Current Status
Beyoncé has already made history by winning an Emmy Award and a Grammy, making her the most-awarded artist in Grammy history. Her Emmy was awarded for "Outstanding Costumes for Variety, Nonfiction or Reality Programming" for her Netflix special Beyoncé Bowl, which was broadcast on Christmas Eve 2023. This performance was a significant event, becoming a global phenomenon during the 2023 NFL Thanksgiving game, where Beyoncé showcased her eighth studio album, Renaissance, in her hometown of Houston, Texas.
Beyoncé is currently nominated for two more Emmy Awards in the categories of Outstanding Variety Special and Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special, both for the same performance[1][3][4].
However, Beyoncé is yet to secure an Oscar and a Tony Award. She has been nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song for "Be Alive" from the film King Richard, but did not win[1][2]. As for the Tony Awards, Beyoncé has not yet participated or been nominated[1][2].
Requirements for EGOT Status
To achieve EGOT status, Beyoncé needs to win an Oscar and a Tony Award, as she has already secured an Emmy and has numerous Grammy Awards[1][4].
Number of Awards Won So Far
- Emmy Awards: 1
- Grammy Awards: 35
- Oscar Awards: 0
- Tony Awards: 0
Looking Ahead
Beyoncé is 43 years old and is two awards away from achieving EGOT status. The Creative Arts Emmy Awards, for which Beyoncé is nominated, will take place next month in Los Angeles, USA[5]. The Tony Award, the most prestigious theater award in the United States, remains the only award missing from Beyoncé's EGOT collection. To complete her EGOT, Beyoncé needs to win an Oscar and a Tony Award[6].
