Spielberg Achieves EGOT at 2026 Grammys
Steven Spielberg just made history by becoming one of only 22 people to win an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony, known as an EGOT.
He got his Grammy for a movie about the famous composer John Williams.
Spielberg is a famous movie director who has been making movies for a long time.
He didn't go to the Grammy ceremony but sent a nice thank-you note.

Other famous people who have done this include Elton John and Viola Davis.
It's like winning the biggest awards in TV, music, movies, and theater!
