H.E.R. is one of the most talented musicians of her generation and little did her supporters know, she is only an award away to achieve the prestigious EGOT status which consists of an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony; which award is she missing to get the title?
According to Pop Crave, the singer only needs to win a Tony Award to achieve her dream status as she recently won a Children's and Family Emmy as a producer of the Netflix show "We the People."
The series beat out other programs like "Ciao Alberto," "Little Bird," "Sesame Street in Communities: Explaining Race I #ComingTogether," and "Rhymes through Times."

In an interview with NME last year, H.E.R. described her time working with Barak and Michelle Obama on the show as a "life-changing" experience as she couldn't believe she worked with the Obamas.
"It was more exciting more than anything, it made me really want to, you know, kill it just because of them being attached and them being a part of it," she said.
H.E.R. Is a Tony Away From EGOT Status at 25
Last year, H.E.R. won one of the biggest recognitions of her career after her song "Fight For You" from the film "Judas and the Black Messiah" won the Academy Award for best original song.
During her acceptance speech, the pop star expressed her gratitude to her collaborators D'Mile and Tiara Thompson.
She also took the opportunity to share her words of wisdom, saying, "music is power and as long as I'm standing I'm always going to fight for us, I'm always going to fight for my people and fight for what's right and I think that's what music does and that's what storytelling does."

In addition, H.E.R., whose real name is Gabriella Sarmiento Wilson, is a Grammy award-winning artist with five wins under her belt. She was also nominated 21 times.
She won her first two nods at the age of 22 after taking home the Best New Artist and Best R&B Song awards at the 61st GRAMMY Awards.
It appears that the singer's dream is slowly coming true as she told People Magazine last year that "There's absolutely going to be an EGOT" in her future.
