Yahoo Lifestyle Let's Talk About Beyoncé's 35 Grammy Wins Over the Years
Winningest pop star of the 21st century? It's gotta be Beyoncé. With a total of 99 (!!) Grammy nominations under her belt, the star continues to break records and currently holds the title of the most-nominated (and most-awarded!) artist in Grammys history. However, the coveted Album of the Year award has always evaded her...until now.
After five AOTY nominations, Bey *finally* took home Album of the Year at the 2025 Grammys for Cowboy Carter, and tbh, it's well, well deserved. Need a quick refresher on Beyoncé's 34 other wins over the years? Let's get into it.
