Although we weren't surprised that Beyoncé got nominated for ten Grammys this year, we're still so happy for her now that she's added to her growing collection of awards and officially broken the record for most Grammy wins of all time.
So, how many Grammys does Beyoncé have? Keep reading for all the details.
Throughout her career, Beyoncé has won a total of 32 Grammy Awards. *Mic drop* Thanks to her wins at the 2023 ceremony, the singer officially became the person with the most Grammy wins ever.
Although Beyoncé is the proud owner of 32 Grammy Awards, only three statuettes stem from Destiny’s Child, a musical trio that included Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.
In 2001, Destiny’s Child received two Grammys for their hit single “Say My Name”: Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and Best R&B Song. The group won again in 2002 for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for “Survivor.”
So far, Beyoncé has accumulated 29 Grammys throughout her solo career. Not only has she won Best Contemporary R&B Album three times (Dangerously in Love, B’Day and I Am…Sasha Fierce), but she’s also been honored for Best R&B Song on multiple occasions, including “Crazy in Love” (featuring Jay-Z), “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” “Drunk in Love” (featuring Jay-Z) and “Cuff It.”
Beyoncé was also recognized for her Vocal Performances for “At Last,” “Love on Top,” “Dangerously in Love 2” and “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” which also won Song of the Year in 2010.
Additional Grammy Awards include Best Surround Sound Album for Beyoncé, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for “Halo,” Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for “Crazy in Love” (featuring Jay-Z), Best R&B Performance for “Drunk in Love” (featuring Jay-Z), Best Music Video for “Formation,” Best Urban Contemporary Album for Lemonade and Everything Is Love, Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for “The Closer I Get to You” (with Luther Vandross) and “So Amazing” (with Stevie Wonder), Best Music Film for Homecoming, Best R&B Performance for “Black Parade,” Best Rap Performance for “Savage,” Best Rap Song for “Savage,” Best Music Video for “Brown Skin Girl,” Best Dance/Electronic Recording for “Break My Soul,” Best Traditional R&B Performance for “Plastic Off the Sofa” and Best Dance/Electronic Album for Renaissance.
Queen Bey, of course. This year, Beyoncé added to her massive Grammy Award collection and officially became the most decorated artist of all time. She surpassed Georg Solti, who previously held the record for most wins, with a total of 31. Quincy Jones holds third place with 28 statuettes.
The singer was nominated for ten Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year (Renaissance), Best Dance/Electronic Album (Renaissance), Record of the Year (“Break My Soul”), Song of the Year (“Break My Soul”), Best Dance/Electronic Recording (“Break My Soul”), Best R&B Performance (“Virgo’s Groove”), Best Traditional R&B Performance (“Plastic Off the Sofa”), Best R&B Song (“Cuff It”) and Best Song Written for Visual Media (“Be Alive” from King Richard).
