LOS ANGELES — Beyoncé was the big winner — and loser — at the 65th Grammy Awards.
The iconic singer, who led the field with nine nominations this year, won four Grammys on Sunday, giving her 32 over the course of her career, breaking the record previously held by classical conductor Georg Solti. Yet in the night’s top three categories — song, record and album of the year — Beyoncé was shut out, losing those awards to veteran singer-songwriter Bonnie Raitt, pop-R&B powerhouse Lizzo and British singer Harry Styles.
In a wide-open night that marked the Grammys’ return to Crypto.com Arena after two years of COVID-related displacement, jazz singer Samara Joy took home the award for best new artist.
