“Thank you so much. I’m trying not to be too emotional. And I’m trying to just receive this night.

“I want to thank God for protecting me. Thank you, God. I’d like to thank my uncle Johnny, who’s not here. But he’s here in spirit. I’d like to thank my parents, my father, my mother, for loving me and pushing me.

Beyoncé added of her husband, JAY-Z, and their kids, 11-year-old Blue and 5-year-old twins Rumi and Sir.

“I’d like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three children who are at home watching.

“We won 3 y’all

“To my Hive, thank y’all so much for all of your love and loyalty! Big thank you for the BREAK MY SOUL and CUFF IT wins!!!” she wrote. “To The Dream, Tricky, HOV, and Big Freedia. I love y’all! Syd, I’ve always been such a fan of yours. Thank you. Nova Wav, Morten Ristorp, Raphael Saadiq, and Nile Rodgers, thank you for pouring into CUFF IT. Big thanks to Sabrina Claudio, Nick Green and Patrick Paige II. PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA is my favorite song on RENAISSANCE most days. It’s hard to pick though. Haaa.

“It feels great to be honored for the vocal performance,” she added. “Thank you to all the talented vocalists who killed those beautiful TikTok renditions! I feel very grateful and filled with joy!”
