Beyoncé makes history with most Grammy wins of all time

Beyoncé has officially broken the record for the most Grammy wins of all time after picking up the Best Dance/Electronic Album award for Renaissance.

Last night's 65th annual Grammy Awards saw Beyoncé win four awards in total, including Best Traditional R&B Performance, Best Dance/Electronic Recording and Best R&B Song and Best Dance/Electronic Album. The fourth win of the night, which saw her Renaissance album win Best Dance/Electronic Album, made Beyoncé overtake Hungarian-British conductor George Solti with the most Grammy wins of all time.

Solti previously held the record for more than two decades with 31 Grammy Awards, but Beyoncé now has 32 Grammy wins.

Beyoncé's record-breaking win was presented by James Corden. During her acceptance speech, she explained she was "trying to not be too emotional," and thanked her late uncle Johnny, as well as the "queer community for your love and for inventing this genre."

Beyoncé was also up for Album of the Year, which went to Harry Styles, and Record of the Year, which went to Lizzo. "Break My Soul" was nominated for Song of the Year, which was won by Bonnie Raitt for her "Just Like That" track.

Beyoncé will bring her Renaissance World Tour to London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 29 and 30 May.
