User:Metropolitan90/List of awards and nominations received by Prince

Academy Awards
The Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, are given annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in the United States for achievements in filmmaking. Prince has been nominated for one Academy Award and won the Oscar for that nomination.

Prince is the last person to win the award for Best Original Song Score, a category now known as Best Original Musical. The award is still in the Academy rulebook, but has not been given under either name since Purple Rain due to an insufficient number or quality of original musicals being made in any year to justify re-activating the category.

Grammy Awards
Earning 33 nominations, Prince has won seven Grammys. He also has had two albums − 1999 and Purple Rain − awarded the Grammy Hall of Fame Award.

MTV Video Music Awards
The MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) is an award show by cable network MTV to honor the top music videos of the year. It was first held in September 1984 and was originally meant as an alternative to the Grammy Awards in the video category. Prince has won four awards from twelve nominations throughout his career.
