With the EGOT status (those who have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award each) now in the news, it is now time to consider the overlap of EGOT winners and nominees with another distinctive award: the Annie Awards, which are perhaps the most public-facing award ceremony for the field of animation. I’m basing this “EGOAT” list off of someone’s edits on the EGOT status article on the English Wikipedia.
Individual persons
The EGOT winners who have also won or been nominated for an Annie are:
- Robert Lopez: received his Tony in 2004, his (Daytime) Emmy in 2008, his Grammy Award in 2012, and both his Oscar and Annie in 2013
- Alan Menken: received his Oscar in 1989, (Special) Emmy in 1990, Grammy in 1991, Annie in 1995, Tony in 2012, and (Daytime) Emmy in 2020
- Scott Rudin: received his (Primetime) Emmy in 1984, Tony in 1994, Oscar in 2007, Grammy in 2012, and an Annie nomination in 2019
- all of Rudin’s aforementioned awards and nominations have been for production
EGOT candidates who have received an Annie but have been nominated for one other award are:
- Trey Parker: (Primetime) Emmy in 2005, Tony in 2011, Annie and Grammy in 2012, with an Oscar nomination in 2000
