by

SZA says she was too nervous to speak with Beyonce during the 2024 Grammy Awards at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, last weekend. She made the admission during an interview with E! News‘ Francesca Amiker.

“I was scared to go over to Beyonce,” SZA said. “I can’t speak unless she wants to speak, in my brain, because I don’t want to bother her. She looked so peaceful and beautiful. I just admire her. She’s a masterclass on poise, grace, artistry, beauty and kindness.”

While she didn’t get a word in with the legendary singer, she still got to speak with one member of the Carter family she admires. “JAY-Z did speak to me, I was so grateful,” she noted. “Those are literally my favorite people, and it’s so crazy that I be seeing them in real life. JAY-Z means the world to me, I’m a JAY-Z stan so bad.” JAY-Z took home the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at the event. During his speech, he criticized the Recording Academy for never honoring Beyonce with Album of the Year, despite her being the most decorated artist in the ceremony’s history.
