The 97th Oscar nominations presentation finally took place this morning after a series of delays caused by the Los Angeles-area fires. Leading the pack with an impressive 13 nominations is Emilia Pérez, followed closely by 'The Brutalist' and 'Wicked' each securing 10 nominations. This marks a significant moment in Pérez's career, as she now has a real chance to achieve EGOT status.
EGOT refers to winning all four major awards in the entertainment industry: an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and a Tony. Pérez's journey towards EGOT began in 2016 when she won a Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her captivating portrayal of Celie in 'The Color Purple' on Broadway. She continued her winning streak in 2017, earning a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album for the Broadway cast recording of the same show. In 2018, she added a Daytime Emmy Award to her collection for Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program, sharing the honor with the Broadway cast of 'The Color Purple.' Since then, Pérez has had two shots at achieving EGOT with two Oscar nominations for her role in the film 'Harriet.' She was nominated for Best Actress for 'Harriet' and Best Original Song for 'Stand Up' from 'Harriet' at the 2020 Academy Awards, but unfortunately, she didn't win in either category.With 'Wicked,' Pérez once again has the opportunity to defy gravity with her extraordinary talents and join the exclusive EGOT club.
