An EGOT is when an artist gains each of the four major performance awards:
* Emmy (TV)
* Grammy (Music)
* Oscar (Film)
* Tony (Broadway/Theatre)

Completing an EGOT is a rare event. As of 2024, only 19 performers have achieved this.

Joining this select club in 2024 was Sir Elton John when he received an Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety Special (Live). This was for his show "Elton John Live: Farewell From Dodger Stadium."
