Meryl Streep has received 21 Academy Award nominations, the most for an actress. She reached 20 with Florence Foster Jenkins and passed that mark with her nomination for The Post, announced on January 23, 2018. Guinness World Records identifies the 21-nomination total as an actress’s record and reported it again in January 2026.
What milestone did Meryl Streep surpass?
Streep became the first person in the milestone described here to exceed 20 Oscar nominations: her nomination for The Post brought her total to 21. The count is for Academy Award nominations for an actress, not nominations across every Oscar category or all kinds of awards. Guinness World Records says the record has remained exclusively hers since 2003. Guinness World Records

How many Oscars has she won?
Streep has won three competitive acting Oscars, for Kramer vs. Kramer, Sophie’s Choice and The Iron Lady. That is a different measure from nominations: 21 nominations do not mean 21 wins. Her three acting wins are one fewer than Katharine Hepburn’s four Best Actress wins, a comparison of wins rather than nomination totals. Guinness World Records
How to check the Academy record
The Academy Awards Database is the official record of past nominees and winners. It is complete through the 98th Academy Awards, held on March 15, 2026, making it the appropriate source for checking a particular ceremony, film or category. The Academy notes that names and film titles in its records reflect credits and documentation submitted at the time of nomination or award. Academy Awards Database
#1 Best Overall
For example, the Academy’s page for the 1982 ceremony lists Streep as a Best Actress nominee for The French Lieutenant’s Woman; Hepburn won that year for On Golden Pond. The 54th Academy Awards
