Stepfon Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 EGOT watch for Jennifer Hudson, as she's a credited producer of A Strange Loop (alongside RuPaul, Ilana Glanzer, Alan Cumming, Mindy Kaling, and Billy Porter)! A Strange Loop led the Tony Award nominations this morning with 11 nominations. E- Outstanding Interactive Media for a Daytime Program for Baba Yoga (2021) G- Best R&B Album for Jennifer Hudson (2009) and Best Musical Theatre Album for The Color Purple (2017) O- Best Supporting Actress for Dreamgirls (2007) T- TBD
Dula Peep Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 wait I had no idea about Strange Loop RuPaul, Ilana Glanzer, Alan Cumming, Mindy Kaling, and Billy Porter?? wow
UnusualBoy Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Wow, didn't know about the EMMY and that she had grammys as well, well deserved
JCsNumba1Fan Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 It’s destiny. She got snubbed for The Color Purple, and many articles at the time said she should’ve not only been nominated but been the winner. Quote Hudson, in 2016, was memorably snubbed by the Tonys when she didn't receive a nod for her role as Shug Avery in The Color Purple, despite initially being the big name-draw around the nominated revival. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/arts/jennifer-hudson-tony-nomination-egot-strange-loop-1235143263/amp/ Can’t wait for black excellence to snatch the EGOT title alongside Whoopi Goldberg and John Legend. If there are any other black winners, let me know!
Trash Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 She should've booked Cher too But good luck to her, i'm sure with that many noms she has at least one on lock. Happy to see a black woman making history.

Just a Gay on ATRL Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Not her snatching an Emmy right from under our noses. She deserves it.
Donquizote Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Legend Certain pop star aspires to be her but failed miserably

The Emmy does not have to be in an acting category, just like an Oscar doesn’t have to be in one. Nobody’s taking away John Legend’s EGOT status because he won for Best Original Song at the Oscars and not Best Actor.

Best Original song still a big category tho, wtf is outstanding interactive media

luckythisway Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 This is an incredible achievement however I dont think Daytime Emmys technically count for EGOT status (correct me if I'm wrong). Regardless, she's an incredibly talented, respected, and acclaimed entertainer

ALittleGauche Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 I watched this live and this season obsessively when I was younger. Who would have known back then? Wow.
