Beyonce now has 88 nominations under her belt from the Academy. If she wins three of her nine nominations, she will tie for most Grammys won ever, however, if she wins four of her nominations, she will hold the record for most Grammys won, since the award show began 65 years ago.
Twitter is also going wild in speculating this Grammys season will see a rematch between Bey and Adele for the Album of the Year award. In 2017, Adele beat Bey’s Lemonade and took the award; who will take it next?
