Viola Davis has done it again! She’s officially joined the ranks of the elite EGOT club, and we couldn’t be more proud of her. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at Davis’ incredible accomplishment and how she achieved EGOT status.
At the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, Viola Davis won a Grammy Award for best audio book, narration, and storytelling recording for her memoir “Finding Me.” This win made her one of the rare people who has won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award during their career.
Davis has two Tonys, most recently for “Fences” in 2010, she won an Emmy in 2015 for “How to Get Away with Murder,” and won an Oscar in 2017 for the film version of “Fences.” As she accepted her award, Davis shouted from the stage, “I just EGOT!”
The audiobook category has seen some seriously famous winners, including Michelle Obama and ex-presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and Jimmy Carter. Davis’ fellow nominees this year included Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jamie Foxx, and one of the other 17 members of the EGOT club, Mel Brooks. Other EGOT winners include Jennifer Hudson, John Legend, and Rita Moreno.
Viola Davis has achieved something truly remarkable, and we couldn’t be more proud of her. Her win is a testament to her hard work, dedication, and talent. Congratulations to Viola Davis on joining the EGOT club!
