Composer Alan Menken recently won a Daytime Emmy Award for Best Original Song in a children's, young adult or animated program for Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, which officially made him a member of the elite group of people who've scored an EGOT. Those with an EGOT have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Award. It is an incredible triumph and not easy to achieve. In fact, Menken is only the sixteenth individual to attain EGOT status. This unique club also includes Rita Morena, Mel Brooks and John Legend.

However, Menken joined an even more exclusive club at the same time: individuals with a REGOT, those who have won a Golden Raspberry Award, aka a Razzie, as well as the standard EGOT. The Razzies are an "award" granted to the very worst in film, and in addition to Menken, there's only one other person who can claim to have an EGOT and a Razzie: Liza Minelli.

Menken received his Razzie for the song "High Times, Hard Times" from the musical Newsies in 1993, the same year he won an Oscar for Best Original Song for "A Whole New World" from Aladdin. This feat made him the first person in history to score a Razzie and an Oscar in the same year.

Meanwhile, Minelli got her Razzie in 1988 for Arthur 2: On the Rocks and Rent-a-Cop. She won her Emmy in 1973 for Best Outstanding Variety Special for Liza with a Z and her Oscar for 1972's Cabaret in the Best Actress category. She's scored three Tony Awards, the first in 1965 in the Best Leading Actress category for Flora the Red Menace. She received her Grammy, the Grammy Legend Award, in 1990, which was an honorary, not competitive, award, so she isn't officially on the list of 16 pure EGOT winners. That makes Menken the only person who's won all five awards competitively.

Whoopi Goldberg is just one Razzie win away from gaining REGOT status too. Goldberg has been nominated for a Razzie twice in her career, though she "lost" to Demi Moore in 1996 and, ironically, Liza Minnelli in 1988. She is probably the only person close to joining Alan Menken and Liza Minnelli in the bizarrely unique REGOT club.

A REGOT isn't something that most performers are actively working towards, as the Razzies are not exactly an award performers aspire to. Few actually accept the award, Sandra Bullock being one of them. Though neither Menken nor Mannelli are among those who did, they are still part of a special club all their own. Finding distinction in Hollywood history is not an easy thing to do, and for better or for worse, their REGOT status accomplishes that.
