Given how Witherspoon has been in the entertainment industry since her teens, I have loved watching her career grow over time. Now, it’s cool to see Kelly Clarkson and the actress\u2019 own son getting so passionate about her deserving an EGOT.<\/p>\n For those who need a refresher, EGOT winners<\/u><\/a> are celebrities who\u2019ve won an Emmy, Tony, Oscar and Grammy. While Reese Witherspoon has won an Oscar and an Emmy, she still needs a Grammy and a Tony to top it all off. On an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/a>, its host said that it\u2019s \u201ccrap\u201d that The Morning Show actress didn\u2019t win a Grammy for singing in Walk the Line, and I love Clarkson\u2019s passionate reaction to why she was mad about that:<\/p>\n I was mad because I was like, how is she not? \u2018Cause you\u2019ve won everything else. You could be an EGOT by now. Not that it matters. But I just meant like, I thought that you had for sure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n You would think that Reese Witherspoon won a Grammy for Walk the Line considering how talented she was singing like June Carter. But like the New Orleans native mentioned on the show that it was only the soundtrack that won. However, her not winning a Grammy for the music biopic doesn\u2019t take away the fire and fierceness she brought out portraying the famed country singer.<\/p>\n The Cruel Intentions actress brought up to Kelly Clarkson that she wasn\u2019t the only one frustrated that she\u2019s not an EGOT winner. Witherspoon\u2019s youngest son, Tennessee, who she said is \u201csuper invested\u201d in her career, had a charming response to say about her EGOT status that\u2019s making me gush:<\/p>\n My youngest is like, \u2018Mom, can you get an EGOT?\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Well, I\u2019m gonna have to work a lot harder.\u2019 And he\u2019s like, \u2018Well then, get going!\u2019 He wants me to win a Tony so bad!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Funnily enough, Reese Witherspoon made sure to mention her 13-year-old doesn\u2019t know what a Tony is. That\u2019s the cutest thing! Since the Sweet Home Alabama actress raised her kids on Hollywood sets<\/u><\/a>, she previously admitted that they would give her career advice. The sweetest piece of advice that Tennessee could give is to encourage his mom to be a winner without any care for what the award is for. That\u2019s a fan worth keeping in your corner.<\/p>\n It seems to me like the answer here is we need to find Reese Witherspoon a play or another musical film for her to get to EGOT status. As Witherspoon\u2019s latest projects include the 2025 movie release<\/u><\/a> of You\u2019re Cordially Invited (which is streaming on your Amazon Prime Video subscription<\/u><\/a>) and the currently-running The Morning Show Season 4, I don\u2019t think any of those works will help her be an EGOT winner. Hopefully theatre and a musical movie are in the cards. Here\u2019s The Kelly Clarkson Show moment in full below:<\/p>\n As much as I love how passionate Kelly Clarkson and Reese Witherspoon\u2019s son are for wanting her to be an EGOT winner, you can\u2019t deny that they raise a great point. However, I believe it\u2019s a matter of when and not if. Witherspoon’s just has to take on another singing project and the adventure of theater for that dream to soon be a reality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
