This is tough call, I could see a bunch of likely possibilities happening next, depending on who’s working on what right now.

If Robin Williams did a one-man Broadway show, it could easily get him the Tony he needs. If Elton John did a televised concert, he could get his Emmy (presuming there’s a category for that). Al Pacino would be an easy choice for a spoken word Grammy. And, like PartiallyDeflected said, give James Earl Jones the right film role and it’s all over.

No Oscar for James Earl Jones! That’s a shame – somebody give that man a major role!

Heather, Julie Andrews did not win a tony and reject it.

She rejected her nomination for a Tony for Victor/victoria b/c she felt that the Tony’s snubbed the rest of the production

I say Babs and Liza don’t count because they didn’t WIN those awards. “Win” implies competition, but honorary awards are like honorary degrees. Just like getting an honorary PhD doesn’t really make you a “doctor”, getting an honorary award doesn’t make you an award WINNER.

Phillip Michael Thomas (of MIAMI VICE fame) invented the acronym EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) because his career objective was to win all four. He didn’t get nominated for any. Sad, really.
