There’s no one doing it quite like Beyoncé. Since making a triumphant return to the stage during her legendary performance in Dubai, the “Telephone” singer has continued to prove that her talent truly knows no bounds. Most recently, her hard work was recognized on Saturday (February 11) night at the BRIT Awards.

The Texas-born star didn’t make the flight overseas to accept her trophies in person. Instead, she gave a virtual speech to the crowd in London. As Daily Mail notes, Queen B won in two categories – International Artist of the Year and International Song of the Year for “BREAK MY SOUL.” Though she didn’t walk the event’s red carpet, she still made sure to dress up in designer duds before snapping a few photos for the ‘gram.
While thanking those who gave her the awards, Beyoncé said, “Thank you so much for this incredible recognition. I’d like to say thank you to all of my friends out there in Britain for your continuous support over the years.” Afterward, she reminded viewers that this is only the beginning of RENAISSANCE‘s three acts. “I’ll see y’all on tour,” the Destiny’s Child alum promised. “Thank you so much for this honour!”
In her IG photo dump, Bey proudly poses with one of her sleek new trophies. Looking as fashionable as ever, her black and white Balmain outfit perfectly hugs her curvy hips and behind. On the unique dresses’ arms, striped fur creates an unmissable air of luxury and fun.
The majority of headlines surrounding Beyoncé lately have been focusing on her undeniably successful RENAISSANCE album. The project had an impressive run at the Grammy Awards. Consequently, it led the singer to tie the record for most trophies granted to one artist. However, that’s not all people have been talking about.
During a chat with Art of Dialogue, Big Gipp shared his thoughts on Bey’s marriage to Jay-Z. During the interview, he specifically said that, if Tupac were still alive, the “Baby Boy” hitmaker would be with him instead of Hov. Read the Atlanta rapper’s full thoughts on the matter here, and check back later for more music news updates.
The hype surrounding the 2023 Grammy Awards has been building since the nominees were first announced last November. In the months since then, celebrities have been busy plotting the perfect outfit, speculating about potential winners, and finally attending the Los Angeles ceremony last night. It was an undeniably star-studded evening, and while there were lots of major music moments, fans feel as though some snubbing took place as well.
For hip-hop lovers, one of the night’s biggest prizes is Rap Album of the Year. On this year’s list of contenders were DJ Khaled, Pusha T, Future, Kendrick Lamar, and surprisingly, Jack Harlow’s sophomore effort. Ultimately, the Compton-born lyricist came out on top for his work on Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. Additionally, he took home trophies for Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance as well.
Of course, the biggest winner of the night was Beyoncé. She made history while winning four of the nine categories that found her nominated, including Dance/Electronic Album, Traditional R&B Performance, R&B Song, and Dance Recording. The mother of three was also up for Album of the Year, though that was given to Harry Styles for his third studio album.

Following yesterday’s (January 23) hilarious Razzie Award nominations announcement comes this roster of potential winners for the upcoming 95th Academy Awards. Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams had the honour of announcing the lengthy list his morning, and it looks like plenty of our favourites could be taking home trophies.

“Look, Rihanna has given us a whole career and a whole catalog of music,” the songwriter said at the time. “And now she’s given us makeup and clothing, and I think the world would understand if she hung up her mic. I completely understand because I love her music so much, but I feel like she’s given all that you could ask for. But the truth is we were looking for a great artist who could tell the story of the film, embrace the themes of the film, and present them to the audience in a different packaging.”
He went on, “It was really the trailer, I think, when [Rihanna] saw the performances that everybody was putting down. That was what kind of put her over the edge and [made her] say, ‘Hey, I want to see this film. I want to see if I can figure this out.’ …But the truth is, once she played us the record, she said straight up, ‘I did this for Chad.’”
As PEOPLE reports, the CEO of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts, Bill Kramer, previously confirmed that all 23 categories will be announced during the live show. In the past, eight awards were cut due to time constraints and given out ahead of the ceremony, with pre-recorded acceptance speeches making it into the broadcast.
Jimmy Kimmel will be on hosting duty for the main event after successful stints in 2017 and 2018. The ceremony will take place on Sunday, March 12 at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.
Of course, last year’s Academy Awards saw the unforgettable moment when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock. Due to the chaos that was caused, it’s unlikely we’ll see similar shenanigans play out this time.
Scroll further to read the full list of 2023 Oscar nominations, including Brendan Fraser, Angela Bassett, Rihanna, and Tems.

Do you think Rihanna will take home her first Oscar this year? Let us know who your early picks to win are down below, and check back later for more pop culture updates.
The 80th Golden Globe Awards went down in Beverly Hills, California on Tuesday evening and Jerrod Carmichael definitely made it a night to remember. Hosting the award show, the 35-year-old made it clear on stage that he wasn’t tolerating the excessive noise, and directly told the crowd to shut up.
“Yo, yo, yo,” Carmichael said, trying to quiet the attendants down. “I didn’t think I’d spend this much time telling y’all to shut the f**k up.”
After being met with mild laughter, the comedian continued, “Everybody relax. This is a live show here. Shut up!”
Though this was Carmichael’s first time hosting the Golden Globes, one Twitter user joked online that it could also be his last, saying, “Bout to be the first and last time Jerrod Carmichael host The Golden Globe.”
“Jerrod Carmichael dressed in his “colors are blush and bashful” yelling at the most famous people to “shut up” like he’s your parents trying to hear the TV has me howling,” another wrote.

Carmichael hosted “Saturday Night Live” last year shortly after coming out in his HBO special “Rothanial.”
In a sit-down with GQ, the stand-up comic opened up about his sexuality, saying that “secret sex is the most fun sex, unfortunately. But, no more of that. Now I’m open and able to show emotion or show affection.”
“I don’t run from it,” he continued, adding, “I mean, there’s definitely still walls and I’ve still got to figure shit out, but the funniest shit on Raya is the girls that I matched with that I never responded to, a couple of them hit me and were like, ‘Ohhhh, okay. I get it now.’”
The North Carolina native has added hosting to his resume, but he also told the magazine that he doesn’t want to wear too many hats.
“I think you should show a discernible skill and be good at something. I hate when a female singer has a decent voice but they suck at dancing. B***h, stop moving. Be like Adele, just stand there. Whitney Houston made ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody,’ and she can’t dance! But who cares, because her voice was great,” he shared.
“I think [standup] is a natural way of communicating for me. I think I probably communicate better, in many ways, on stage than off, and can be more honest.”
As December inches closer and closer to wrapping up another eventful year, the entertainment world is already 10 steps ahead of everyone else as they prepare for the upcoming awards season in early 2023.
Most recently, George and Mayan Lopez markedly unveiled the nominees for the next Golden Globes at a special event in Beverly Hills, California. While at the Beverly Hilton, the Lopez vs. Lopez stars read lists of endless famous names who could potentially be taking home a trophy for their hard work on January 10th.
As Complex notes, the show will soon broadcast live via NBC and Peacock. Last year’s ceremony was unaired due to a boycott launched by an investigative piece from the Los Angeles Times.
Upon publishing, the story specifically shed light on the “lack of Black members in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.”
Things appear to have been remidied since then, with the show scheduled to go on as expected. Comedian Jerrod Carmichael will accordingly be on hosting duties, and is sure to have plenty of quick wit to keep the crowd laughing.
“His comedic talents have entertained and thrilled audiences while providing thought-provoking moments that are so important in the times we live,” HFPA president Helen Hoehne wrote in a statement.
She later went on, “Jerrod is the special kind of talent this show calls for to kick off the awards season.”
