Lizzo is the first Black woman to win Record of the Year at the #Grammys this century.
“Beyoncé, in the 5th grade I skipped school to watch you perform… You changed my life… The way you make people feel, I was like, ‘I want to make people feel that way with my music.’”
— Lizzo to Beyoncé during her #GRAMMYs acceptance speech.
Harry Styles won album of the year at Sunday’s Grammy Awards, taking home the top honor on a night that Beyoncé dominated and became the ceremony’s most decorated artist.
Beyoncé won her 32nd award, breaking a 26-year-old record. But as in years past, the album of the year honor eluded her. Styles took home three awards Sunday.
Still, Beyoncé stands alone on her Grammy throne and had the support of the room throughout the night, with winners frequently referencing her and her influence on them.
“I’m trying not to be too emotional,” the superstar said after her historic win as her husband Jay-Z stood and applauded her. The singer thanked her late uncle, her parents, Jay-Z and her children for supporting her. “I’m just trying to receive this night. I want to thank God for protecting me. Thank you, God.”
