Beyoncé can give high fashion in a simple white tee, but this look is next level.
Queen Bey’s arrival at the Grammys at Crypto.com Arena Feb. 2 was among her sneakiest yet. The “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer, who was up for 11 nominations at the 67th ceremony, wore a gold sparkly dress complete with white cowboy-inspired detailing.
And while the 29-time Grammy winner did not show out for the red carpet—she has kept a lower profile at the event for the last few years, opting to skip the photo ops outside the venue. Regardless, Beyoncé continues to be a fixture at the ceremony—with stars like Olivia Rodrigo, Dua Lipa, and Best New Artist winner Victoria Monet making their way over to her table for photos last year.
This year, the 43-year-old stepped out at the ceremony alongside 11-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and husband Jay-Z, as the family continues to put on a united front amid the rapper’s lawsuit, which accuses him of raping a 13-year-old girl alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs in 2000.
Jay-Z, whose attorney has said is “upset” his family has to deal with the situation, vehemently denies the allegations, and has been granted to file a mission for dismissal later this month.
Tonight, however, is all about Beyoncé. With Cowboy Carter, she is the most decorated nominee for the evening and her hit single “Texas Hold ‘Em” itself earned nods in Best Country Song, Record of the Year and Song of the Year—as well as already nabbing wins for Best Country Duo/Group Performance alongside Miley Cyrus for "II Most Wanted" and Best Country Album.
What’s more, Cowboy Carter also earned Beyoncé her fifth Album of the Year nomination, as well as scoring her nods for Best Melodic Rap Performance (“Spaghettii” with Shaboozey and Linda Martell), Best Country Duo Performance (“II Most Wanted” with Miley Cyrus), Best Pop Duo Performance (“Levii’s Jeans” with Post Malone), Best Country Solo Performance (“16 Carriages”) and Best Pop Solo Performance (“Bodyguard”).
Beyoncé’s recognition in Album of the Year—in which she is nominated this year alongside Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, André 3000, Jacob Collier, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, and Taylor Swift—has been long overdue.
In fact, her husband of 16 years Jay-Z—with whom she also shares 7-year-old twins Rumi and Sir—said as much during the 66th ceremony last year as he accepted the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award.
“She has more Grammys than everyone and never won Album of the Year, so even by your own metrics that doesn’t work,” Jay-Z said during his acceptance speech. “Think about that. The most Grammys and never won an album of the year. That doesn’t work.”
Ahead of nabbing any awards, Beyoncé also recently announced her tour for her Grammy-nominated album, proving that Cowboy Carter's impact has only just begun. Time will tell if Beyoncé gets her much-deserved flowers in the night's biggest categories. Keep reading for more stars on the Grammys red carpet…
