Will Beyoncé finally win Album of the Year? Music’s top stars gear up for Grammys
Beyoncé has earned 11 Grammy nominations for Cowboy Carter, matching Michael Jackson’s Thriller for the most nominations from a single album. As the most awarded artist in Grammys history, could this finally be her moment to claim the top prize on Sunday at the 2025 Grammy Awards?
Music's elite are congregating in Los Angeles for Sunday's Grammy Awards, and Beyoncé's name is on the tip of everyone's tongue: will Recording Academy voters finally give the megastar her due?
She is the most decorated Grammy artist in history but Beyoncé has infamously never won the coveted prize for Album of the Year – despite four previous nominations for her studio albums – and the 67th edition of the awards gala might finally put that paradox to bed.
But her conversation piece of an album "Cowboy Carter" faces stiff competition from work by perennial winners like Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift, along with a buzzy class of pop hitmakers including Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX.
Despite the high-wattage star power, Grammy week – which is usually loaded up with industry parties and performances – has taken on a more somber tone than usual, as the entertainment capital reels in the aftermath of deadly wildfires that leveled entire neighborhoods just weeks ago.
