List of EGOT winners

EGOT, an acronym for the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards, is the designation given to people who have won all four of the major American performing art awards.[1][2] Respectively, these awards honor outstanding achievements in television, audio recording, film, and Broadway theatre.[3] Achieving the EGOT has been referred to as the "grand slam" of American show business.[1][4] Twenty-one people have achieved competitive EGOT status and six others have done so with honorary or special awards.[5] In 2018, Robert Lopez became the first and currently only double EGOT winner.[6] Five competitive and one non-competitive EGOT holder have been dubbed PEGOTs, for additionally having received either a Peabody Award (4) or Pulitzer Prize (2).
