There are two new members of the esteemed EGOT club. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s win Sunday night at the 2024 Creative Arts Emmys gave them the “E” they needed to attain EGOT status, joining about 20 other artists who have won Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Awards. The pair won an Emmy for best original music and lyrics, along with Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, for their composition “Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It?” The song was featured in the Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building.” Pasek and Paul previously won a best original song Oscar for “City of Stars” from the film “La La Land.” The Broadway musical “Dear Evan Hansen” won the duo both the best musical theater album Grammy and a Tony for best original score, though that wasn’t the only time they won those awards. The pair also scored a best compilation soundtrack Grammy for “The Greatest Showman” and a best musical Tony for “A Strange Loop.” Season three of “Only Murders in the Building” was set on Broadway.
