EGOT is an acronym for the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards, referring to all four of the major performing art awards in the United States. These awards honor outstanding achievements in television, audio recording/music, film, and Broadway theatre respectively. Achieving the EGOT has been referred to as the "grand slam" of American show business. Including those with honorary or special awards, 28 people have achieved this status. Only one person, Robert Lopez, has won all four awards twice.
