Bad Bunny & Sabrina Carpenter Snag First Emmys, Halfway to EGOT!

Music sensations Bad Bunny and Sabrina Carpenter celebrated a major career milestone this past weekend, each clinching their first-ever Emmy Awards at the 78th Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles. This significant achievement now places both artists halfway to the coveted EGOT status, having already secured Grammy wins in their careers.

Bad Bunny, fresh off his grand "Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour," was honored with an Emmy for Outstanding Variety Special (Live). His win recognized his stellar performance and production work during the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show. The halftime spectacle proved to be a dominant force at the awards, sweeping an impressive seven Emmys in total, cementing its place as the most-awarded halftime performance in television history.

Meanwhile, Sabrina Carpenter, known for her chart-topping hits, earned her first Emmy for her contributions to "The Muppet Show" special. She was recognized in the Best Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) category for her dual role as an executive producer and performer. "The Muppet Show" itself had a successful night, securing four of its six nominations.

Neither artist was physically present at the Los Angeles ceremony to accept their awards. While Bad Bunny has yet to publicly comment on his win, Sabrina Carpenter took to Instagram on Sunday afternoon to share her excitement and gratitude. She posted,

A lot of love and happiness and hard work and diva fights went into making this special,

expressing pride for her and "The Muppet Show" team's collective success.

Prior to these Emmy wins, both artists had already established themselves as Grammy winners.

Carpenter received two Grammys in 2025, and Bad Bunny boasts an impressive six Grammy awards, with his first dating back to 2021.

With an Emmy and multiple Grammys under their belts, they now only need to secure an Oscar and a Tony Award to achieve the rare and prestigious EGOT status, a testament to their diverse talents and growing influence across various entertainment mediums.
