Beyonce Fans Did What at the Grammys???

Beyonce fans did what at the Grammys? The 65th Grammys Award Show took place last Sunday, February 5th. There were so many huge moments that you may have missed and I am here to fill you in.

If you are part of the “Harries”, a fan of Harry Styles, you may have heard that the artist won the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album of the Year and the huge Grammy for Album of the Year. However, there was a lot of controversy around the latter award. Many members of the “Bey Hive” thought that Styles was undeserving and that he robbed her of the award. There are a number of videos circulating online with the Beyonce fans screaming at Harry Styles that Beyonce deserved the award while he attempted to deliver his speech. The fans were relentless and continued to yell numerous phrases at the pop star. While all of this happened, Taylor Swift remained standing and cheering him on for his accomplishment.

If anyone remembers, Taylor Swift went through a similar experience during the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards. During that award show, Taylor Swift won an award for Best Female Video. When she went to give her acceptance speech, Kanye West stormed the stage, stole the microphone, and continued to tell the crowd that Beyonce actually had the best female music video. Swift was left in awe and then tried to continue her speech. Moral of the story is, the 2023 Grammy Award Show may have given Taylor Swift a major case of deja vu.

The real question is, are Beyonce fans taking their love of her music too far? No star deserves to be interrupted throughout their acceptance speech for an award. To add on, the fans of Beyonce were mad even though the female pop star had broken the record for the most Grammys won. They felt that she deserved another one to increase the record. So, where do you stand? Should Beyonce have won or are the fans in the wrong?
