This Emmy Award inches Gaga to being one award away from achieving the prestigious EGOT status in which someone is awarded an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony. Only 26 people have done it in the past, including Elton John, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jennifer Hudson and John Legend.

Gaga has 14 Grammy Awards to her name, including awards for Album of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, Female Pop Performance and Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.

In 2019, she, along with co-writers Mark Ronson, Anthony Rossomando and Andrew Wyatt, won the Best Original Song Oscar for “Shallow” in A Star Is Born. Upon accepting the award, she thanked Bradley Cooper, who costarred with her in the film and sang the duet with her.

“Bradley, there is not a single person on the planet that could’ve sung this song with me but you,” she said. “Thank you for believing in us, thank you so much.”

Lady Gaga, winner of the Music (Original Song) award for 'Shallow' from 'A Star Is Born,' attends the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar Party hosted by Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on February 24, 2019 in Beverly Hills, California.

All that’s left for the multi-hyphenate to achieve is a Tony Award.

Up next for Gaga is her Mayhem Ball Tour, kicking off in July in Las Vegas and making stops in Seattle, New York, Miami, Toronto and Chicago before going international.
