John Legend finally earned his EGOT.

The star and executive producer of NBC’s Jesus Christ Superstar Live won his first Emmy Sunday at the Creative Arts Awards — which means he now owns an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. His fellow JCS producers Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber also became members of the exclusive EGOT club for the live musical’s win in the Outstanding Variety Special category.
