Per his Wikipedia article, he is an EGOT.
“He has won four Academy Awards, ten BAFTA Awards, two Golden Globe Awards and a Grammy Award, as well as nominations for a Emmy Award and a Tony Award.[14]”
The article currently does not credit him as an EGOT. Emmy and Tony nominations leave him only halfway to (winning) EGOT status. Allen is credited in the article as one who has received at least one nomination for each of four but not having won one of each. Wclaytong (talk) 12:27, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately not. However, Mel Brooks has a BEGOOWT, with a Lifetime Achievement BAFTA Award (2017), a Best New Musical Olivier Award (2005), and 2 Best Original Screenplay Writers Guild Awards (1969, 1975). Mermer321 (talk) 02:11, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe instead of BEGOOTS, it should be called GOGOBET (instead of limiting to SAG for acting, it becomes G for GUILD), as in whatever guild is associated with their particular craft and/or multiple crafts.
That way, it'll open up the door at least. GOGOBET, BETGOGO, BETOGOG, BOGOGET, TOGOBEG…BEG-TO-GO…
……Haha, that should be it. GO-TO-BEG! Ain't that the truth, when you think about it? (Grammy, Oscar, Tony, Olivier, BAFTA, Emmy, Guild Award of whichever designation.) --Cinemaniac86TalkStalk23:39, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I love it.
By my calculation, Jennifer Hudson and Viola Davis are the only other people one award away from completing the GOTOBEG, with both missing an Olivier award. :P Mermer321 (talk) 23:47, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please remove Jamie Lee Curtis from the missing Tony Awards list of potential EGOT,because she was only nominated for a Grammy award buy didn't win. Thanks. 93.34.149.124 (talk) 06:08, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
