Beyoncé has won her first Emmy Award for Outstanding Costumes for Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Programming, putting her halfway to an EGOT, the elite status achieved by winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Award.
The singer earned the award for her “Beyoncé Bowl” Western-themed halftime performance during the NFL’s Christmas Day game between the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans, streamed on Netflix.
Juried Emmys, decided by specialised committees rather than standard voting, typically honour highly technical categories. Beyoncé was listed alongside costume designer Shiona Turini, assistants Erica Rice and Molly Peters, costume supervisor Chelsea Staebell, and head of workroom Timothy White.
An EGOT is considered one of the entertainment industry’s highest honours, representing a sweep of the four major U.S. awards: an Emmy for television, a Grammy for music, an Oscar for film and a Tony for theatre. Beyoncé already has 35 Grammys but still needs an Oscar and a Tony to complete the set. She had been nominated for 10 other Emmys in the past without a win.
The Creative Arts Emmy Awards will be held on 7 September, one week before the Primetime Emmys on 14 September.
