Darren Criss gets first Grammy nomination: 'It's an honor'
Filipino-American actor and singer Darren Criss has received his first Grammy Award nomination for Best Musical Theater Album for the original Broadway cast recording of "Maybe Happy Ending."
This nomination places him two awards away from achieving the prestigious EGOT status, which requires winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award.
Criss won a Primetime Emmy in 2018 for his role in "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story" and a Tony Award this past Broadway season for his performance in "Maybe Happy Ending."
He expressed his gratitude, calling it an honor to be nominated and represent the Broadway industry at the Grammys.
"Maybe Happy Ending" is a story about obsolete robots in a futuristic Seoul.
Another Filipino American, Marco Paguia, also received a Grammy nomination.
