Wow in such little time, he has two Tony's, two Emmy's and a Grammy. His Frozen songs might get him an Oscar nod.

His Mormon co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, as well as recent Tony winner Cyndi Lauper, are also shy an Oscar for their EGOTs.

Here is a good link that shows who is missing their Oscar for an EGOT. They also have ones on missing a Tony, Emmy and Grammy

Chewy, I believe they do count. That's how Whoopi got her EGOT. Updated On: 7/17/13 at 11:40 AM

An Emmy is an Emmy.

Daytime Emmy's count for sure. Kate Winslet and Martin Scorsese need to do a play together because they are only a tony short of an egot.

My boss is seriously deserving an Oscar nomination today for the dramatic 'woe-is-me' performance he put on today.

Daytime Emmys do count but it's always with an asterisk, real or implied. That's why they are referred to as Daytime Emmys rather than just Emmys. It's still a nice achievement and kudos to the folks who win them, but it's not really what most people are referring to when they say "The Emmys".

I think Robert Lopez will win an Oscar for FROZEN.

This is one of the confirmed songs SO FAR:

Sounds really promising and Oscar-winning! The theme about sisters and love will definitely get great, beautiful songs!

"I heard they have someone really great for the end credits song for Frozen...."

I may be mistaken, but I thought they changed the rules recently so that the song actually has to be used at some point in the movie and not just over the end credits to qualify.

From the Oscar rulebook:

Original Song:
An original song consists of words and music, both of which are original and written specifically for the motion picture. There must be a clearly audible, intelligible, substantive rendition (not necessarily visually presented) of both lyric and melody, used in the body of the motion picture or as the first music cue in the end credits.

Whoa, John Lasseter seems on the verge of tears.
This seems like the ticket.
