Vespa—WireImage/Getty Images by [Samantha Grossman](https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/) ## Samantha Grossman Jun 8, 2015 9:25 PM UTC On _30 Rock_, one of Tracy Jordan’s [greatest aspirations ](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/EGOT.jpg)was to one day achieve an EGOT — that is, to win an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and a Tony. In real life, [only 12 people ](http://mentalfloss.com/article/55376/12-members-egot-winners-circle)have ever won all four of the biggest awards in the entertainment industry. (A few of them include Audrey Hepburn, Mel Brooks and [Robert Lopez](http://time.com/11785/oscars-frozen-egot/).) But after the recent Tony Awards, Dame Helen Mirren is now just one step away from joining this elite circle. Mirren took home the award for Best Actress in a play for her role in _The Audience._ She [already has ](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000545/awards)several Emmys (for roles in _Prime Suspect: The Final Act_, _The Passion of Ayn Rand_ and others) and an Oscar (for her role in _The Queen._) So now, she just needs that Grammy — and she knows it. “I really want a Grammy! It’s terrible, isn’t it?” the actress remarked after her Tony win. “I have to do an audio book of some sort!” She said she doesn’t have any current plans for an audio book, but she’s “thinking about it,” so stay tuned. _Read next:_ [_Here’s Why Helen Mirren Wants to Be in a Fast & Furious Movie_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/08/2015-tony-awards-on-the-scene) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3913379/helen-mirren-tonys-egot/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3913379/helen-mirren-tonys-egot/"},"headline":"Helen Mirren Is One Step Closer to an EGOT","datePublished":"2015-06-08T21:25:57.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:20:53.149Z","description":"After her recent Tony win for The Audience, she just needs a Grammy to complete the big four","url":"https://time.com/3913379/helen-mirren-tonys-egot/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta5fc12328d279712/69878050e20a8778caa85388/best-actress-65.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta5fc12328d279712/69878050e20a8778caa85388/best-actress-65.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The 79th Annual Academy Awards - Arrivals","caption":"The 79th Annual Academy Awards - Arrivals","creditText":"J.
