Grammy awards 2023: How Beyonce broke the Grammy record to become the most decorated artist

Impeccably dressed like a queen, Beyoncé was seen in a plunging silver corset dress and leather gloves at the Grammys as she stole the hearts of all with her 32nd award. And like a true celebrity, she was fashionably late at the Grammy’s 2023. She looked stunning with her long brown hair left open and parted in the middle in beach waves. Her makeup was spot on with nothing over the top, just highlighting her eyes with the smokey look and nude lipstick.

Beyoncé is now the most decorated Grammy artist of all time, winning her 32nd award for best dance/electronic music album. It’s clearly a very emotional moment for Beyonce as she says, “just trying to just receive this night.”

“I’m trying not to be too emotional,” the superstar said 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.”

Beyoncé is known for her classy Grammy look throughout the years. Remember how she made an impressive entry when she made her debut at the ceremony in 2000, wearing a beaded crop top and matching skirt. Since then, she’s slayed the carpet with every appearance. One of her most show-stopping looks was the garb she wore to the 2015 soirée. She arrived in a delicate Proenza Schouler gown. The lace piece featured a plunging neckline, sheer skirt and sleeves, and a train cascading behind her.

The new Grammys GOAT, as Noah put it following her speech, thanked God; her late Uncle Johnny, a gay man who inspired her dancehall album Renaissance; her parents “for loving me and pushing me” and her “beautiful” husband Jay Z and three children.

In line with her shout-out to Uncle Johnny, she ended with thanks for the queer community “for your love and for inventing the genre.” Beyoncé has now collected 32 awards after she won for best R&B song for “Cuff It,” dance-electric music recording for “Break My Soul,” traditional R&B performance for “Plastic Off the Sofa” and dance-electric music for her seventh studio album “Renaissance,” which is also nominated for album of the year.

Beyoncé missed the milestone of tying Solti’s record, which stood since 1997. Host Trevor Noah said she was on her way to the ceremony but blamed Los Angeles traffic for not being in person to accept it. The song was written by several writers including Beyonce, The-Dream, Nile Rodgers and Raphael Saadiq.

Once Beyoncé — the night’s leading nominee — finally arrived, Noah presented her with the best R&B song award at her table.

Bad Bunny opened the Grammy Awards with a festive, high-energy performance that brought many of the audience including Taylor Swift who rose to her feet and danced near her table at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena.

Noah introduced Bunny calling him a “global force” who is the most streamed and listened to artist in the world.

Styles won the main telecast’s first award for best pop vocal album for “Harry’s House.” The singer said recording the song was one of the “greatest experiences of my life. It’s been my greatest joy.”

Sam Smith and Kim Petras won best pop duo-group performance for their song “Unholy.” Petras said Smith wanted Petras to make the acceptance speech because “I’m the first transgender woman to win this award.”

“I want to thank all the incredible transgender legends before me who kicked these doors open for me so I could be here tonight,” said Petras, who made a reference to friend and Grammy-nominated musician Sophie, who died after an accidental fall in Athens, Greece in 2021. “You told me this would happen. I always believed in me. Thank you so much for your inspiration, Sophie. I adore you, and your inspiration will forever be in my music.”

Petras thanked Madonna for being a tremendous supporter of LGBTQ rights.

“I don’t think I could be here without Madonna,” Petras said. “My mother, I grew up next to a highway in nowhere Germany. And my mother believed me that I was a girl. I wouldn’t be here without her and her support.”

During the in memoriam segment, the Grammys recognized the lives of  Loretta Lynn,  Migos rapper Takeoff and  Christine McVie with several star-studded performers paying them homage. The touching performances included Kacey Musgraves singing “Coal Miner’s Daughter” in tribute to Lynn; Quavo and the Maverick City Music hit the stage to honor his nephew Takeoff with the song “Without You;” and Sheryl Crow, Mick Fleetwood and Bonnie Raitt performed “Songbird” to remember McVie.

Kendrick Lamar won sixth career trophy for best rap performance for “The Heart Part 5” and also won best rap album for his studio offering, “Mr. Morales & The Big Steppers.”

“You know, as entertainers, we say things to provoke thoughts and feelings and emotions,” he said. “So making this record is one of my toughest. … I would like to thank the culture for allowing me to evolve in order to make this. I finally found imperfection with this album.”
