John Legend won an Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Live) thatnks his work on Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert — giving him the highly coveted EGOT status.

He’s the first Black man and also the youngest person to have an Emmy, a Grammy (he has 10), an Oscar (2015 Best Original Song for “Glory”), and a Tony (2017 for Best Revival of A Play for Jitney).

Incredible! Congrats, John!
