Just moments ago, Beyoncé tied for most overall Grammy awards but she’s already beat her own best with her newest Grammy win. Beyoncé is holds the all-time record for winning the most Grammys after taking home the award Best Dance/Electronic Music Album for Renaissance. That triumph marks her 32nd Grammy in total and her fourth win of the night.
Queen Bey caused a stir earlier, when she wasn’t present to accept her first award of the night. Fortunately, a queen is never late (everyone else is just early) and Beyoncé was ready to accept her record-breaking Grammy just in time. Beyoncé thanked her family in an emotional speech, as well as giving a special shout-out to the LGBTQ community, saying, “I’d like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre.”
This was Beyoncé’s first time submitting her music in the Dance/Electronic category, a decision that clearly paid off as she celebrates her new title as the owner of the most Grammy awards. With 88 nominations, she is also tied for most Grammy nominations with her husband Jay-Z.
The night is still young and Beyoncé is nominated for more awards, so there’s still time for her to continue stacking up more awards, furthering her status as the GOAT as presenter Trevor Noah enthusiastically proclaimed after her Best Dance/Electronic Music Album win.
