Viola Davis has become the latest Hollywood star to earn the coveted EGOT — a combination of an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony.

The actress made history at the 65th annual Grammy Awards with her win for the ‘best audiobook, narration and storytelling recording’ category.

She won the award for her memoir ‘Finding Me’, defeating the likes of Jamie Foxx, Mel Brooks, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Questlove in the category.

“I wrote this book to honor the 6-year-old Viola, to honor her life, her joy, her trauma,” Davis said. “It has been such a journey. I JUST EGOT!”

Davis joins the likes of Whoopi Goldberg, John Legend, and Jennifer Hudson, who joined the EGOT club in 2002, 2018 and 2022, respectively.
