Beyonce's reign continues.

It's already been a huge year for Beyonce. The hitmaker unleashed her eighth studio album in March, COWBOY CARTER, just a few months after closing her record-breaking "Renaissance" tour. She also launched her own whiskey brand, SirDavis, which has already been a massive success. Now, she's set a new record with her 2025 Grammy nominations.

According to Billboard, she's in the running for 11 awards, the most ever in a year for a woman artist. She beat her own record, 10, which she previously shared with Lauryn Hill. Hill received 10 nods at the 1999 Grammys ceremony, and Beyonce at the 2010 ceremony. She's competing for Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, and more.

Other nominees include Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish, and more. News of Beyonce's nominations arrives amid claims that she was snubbed at both the People's Choice Country Awards and the Country Music Awards. She wasn't nominated in a single category at the CMAs despite the success of COWBOY CARTER. She also left the PCCAs empty-handed despite being nominated for a whopping 17 awards.

Veteran of the genre Dolly Parton even weighed in on the snubs during an interview with Variety earlier this year. "There's so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can't really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that," she said in part. What do you think of setting a new record for most Grammy nominations as a solo woman artist in one year?
