Beyoncé has made history by winning album of the year at the 2025 Grammys. Taylor Swift, who was nominated in the category alongside Beyoncé and other notable artists, celebrated the Queen Bey’s victory with a champagne toast along with Jay-Z. This is Beyoncé’s first win in the album of the year category, following her earlier wins for best country album and best country duo/group performance.
The 27-track album features collaborations with big names such as Miley Cyrus and Post Malone, as well as Beyoncé’s daughter Rumi. The award marks a milestone for Beyoncé, who became the single most-nominated artist in Grammys history ahead of the ceremony. Swift went home empty-handed after receiving six nominations.
In her acceptance speech, Beyoncé encouraged people to “stay persistent” and thanked her family, collaborators, and fans for their support. The 2025 Grammys broadcast live from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on CBS or stream them on-demand on Paramount+.
