The 74th Primetime Creative Emmy Awards was recently released ahead of the highly-awaited 74th Primetime Emmy Awards this Sunday.
With the new winners recently revealed, a few artists are now nearing EGOT status - thanks to their recent Emmy win.
Now, we have listed down six singers who are one award away from achieving EGOT status.
6 Singers Who Are Near EGOT Status
Adele recently bagged her very first Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) for "Adele: One Night Only." The British songstress could follow the steps of Jennifer Hudson who recently won a Tony for producing a musical.
What She Got: Emmy, Grammy, Oscars
What She Needs: Tony
Thanks to the "Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show," Eminem earned his first Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Live). Like Adele, Eminem could secure a Tony if he produce, write or play a role in either a play or a musical - but we all know it's going to be one of the first two.

The last Oscars was a close call for Lin Manuel Miranda, as he is pressed to win the Best Original Song for the "Encanto" hit "Dos Oroguitas," which Sebastian Yatra enchantingly performed during the show. If he could write another song, or possibly even produce, or act on one, he could finally bag that Oscar he needs.

If only the Goddess of Pop Cher had a production role on 2019's "The Cher Show," she would have clinched the last needed Tony that she needs. But the end is not near yet for the 76-year-old, she could still get one either for a performing role or a production one.

The rocketman Elton John only needs is an Emmy, as he already secured an Oscar for his "Lion King" track, a Tony for "Aida, and obviously a plethora of GRAMMYs. Should he have his own daytime talk show, or have one of his concerts or special performances be taped live, he could easily score one - given his impact and influence.

One of the most awarded actresses in the history of Tony, Audra McDonald, is an Oscar away from EGOT status. Although her film credits are not as robust as her theatre reel, McDonald could still score one, especially with the upcoming film that former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama are producing.
