Grammy 2025: Beyoncé’s big moment

Grammy 2025: Beyoncé’s big moment

By Benjamin Njoku

Beyoncé’s joy knew no bounds when she accepted the award for Best Country Album, presented by Taylor Swift, who won the category 15 years ago.

The award came after winning Best country duo/group performance earlier in the day for “II Most Wanted” with Miley Cyrus, the first time in 50 years that a Black woman won a country music Grammy.

She won the award after four previous nominations over the course of her highly-decorated career.

“I just feel very full and very honored. It’s been many, many years”, she said.

Presented to her by members of the Los Angeles Fire Department, Beyoncé accepted the award while standing next to her daughter, Blue Ivy. Lady Gaga and Billie Eilish were seen with tears in their eyes watching from the crowd. The win was Beyoncé’s third of the night.
