Beyoncé made history at the 63rd annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night, 14 March.
The US superstar broke the record for all-time wins by a woman and any singer (male or female) with 28 Grammy Awards when she bagged the best R&B performance for Black Parade.
The talented singer also took home the Best Music Video award for her smash track Brown Skin Girl.
Beyoncé's nine-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter also became one of the youngest Grammy winners in history. She is featured in her mom's Brown Skin Girl along first-time Grammy winner Wizkid.
The songstress, married to hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, is now three wins away from the all-time record of 31, held by conductor Georg Solti, according to CNN.
