In 2001, Beyonce won her first Grammy award as part of Destiny's Child. Through the song Say My Name, Destiny's Child won the categories of Best R&B Performance by a Group and Best R&B Song.

Another achievement came from the collaboration between Beyonce and Megan Thee Stallion in 2021. As reported by Insider News, no female musician or rapper has ever won the Best Rap Performance category in the 11 years since the category's inception. However, through the collaboration of Beyonce and Megan Thee Stallion on the song Savage, they managed to break that 'curse'. Truly girl power!

When talking about the Grammy Awards, don't get bored when Beyonce's name is mentioned, KLovers! According to Insider News, although Beyonce has won 32 Grammy awards, she has never won in the Record of the Year category! She has been nominated eight times, but this year Beyonce was defeated by Lizzo with the song About Damn Time.

Switching to another musician, now there's Billie Eilish. The singer of the song Bad Guy also achieved remarkable records at the 2020 Grammy Awards. According to Insider News, Billie Eilish is the only female musician who successfully won the Big Four categories in one night. She swept the Best New Artist, Record, Song, and Album of the Year categories.

Billie Eilish also set a record as the youngest artist to ever win the Album of the Year category at the age of 18. What's even cooler, Billie Eilish won that category with her debut album, KLovers! The album is titled WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?.

In addition to Beyonce and Billie Eilish, there's Taylor Swift who didn't miss out on breaking records. As reported by Insider News, Taylor Swift is the only female musician who has won Album of the Year three times. The three albums are FEARLESS (2010), 1989 (2016), and FOLKLORE (2021).

The last fact is quite surprising, KLovers. The Grammy Awards received low ratings in 2021 and experienced a slight increase in the following year. The Los Angeles Times also stated that the presence of Covid-19 hindered the Grammy Awards from attracting more viewers. Despite that, it turns out that the most-watched Grammy Awards ceremony was in 1984. A total of 51.67 million viewers saw Michael Jackson bring home 8 Grammy trophies.
