Beyoncé made history at the Grammy Awards by winning Album of the Year for her country music album “Cowboy Carter,” despite not being nominated by the Country Music Awards. This marked her first win in the category after being nominated four times. Beyoncé became the first black woman to win Album of the Year in the 21st century, dedicating the award to Linda Martell, the first black woman to play the Grand Ole Opry. The singer emphasized the importance of pushing forward and opening doors for others in her acceptance speech. Beyoncé also shared updates about her upcoming Cowboy Carter Tour, which will include stops in major cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and London.
