Beyonce has secured the prestigious album of the year Grammy Award for her chart-topping country album Cowboy Carter.
The US superstar had been nominated on four previous occasions but failed to secure the prize with 2008’s I Am… Sasha Fierce, 2013’s Beyonce, 2016’s Lemonade and 2022’s Renaissance.
The recognition, alongside earlier wins on Sunday of best country album and the country duo/group performance award for her song featuring Miley Cyrus, titled II Most Wanted, has extended her lead as the most-awarded artist in Grammys history to 35 awards.
