When asked if she might pursue a Grammy and Tony to complete the set, Curtis offered a realistic response about the prospects of achieving EGOT status.

I can’t sing at all, and I’ve never been on stage.Curtis responded candidly.
However, while Jamie Lee Curtis claimed to have no hope of becoming an EGOT member, the prestigious club welcomed two new members, following their recent Emmy wins.

In contrast to Jamie Lee Curtis’ blunt remarks, the songwriting duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul recently cemented their place in EGOT history.

Therefore, Pasek and Paul became the 20th and 21st members of the EGOT club, which previously welcomed icons likeElton John,Whoopi Goldberg, Audrey Hepburn, and more.
According toEW, only a few selected and somewhat lucky individuals have ever actually earned the prestigious EGOT title by receiving at least one competitive Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award throughout their storied careers.
