After Tuesday morning’s Grammy nominations, Viola Davis could be the next entertainer to win the EGOT, the acronym used for an artist winning an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony.
As Entertainment Weekly points out, Davis already has an Emmy, an Oscar and two Tonys, and received a Grammy nomination in the Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording category, for her narration the audiobook version of her recent memoir Finding Me.
Davis is up against a pretty steep field of competition, with fellow nominees in that category including Mel Brooks (who has already achieved the EGOT), Lin-Manuel Miranda (who has an Emmy, a Tony and a Grammy, and is just an Oscar away from his own EGOT), Jamie Foxx and Questlove.
