Adeles 25 was named Album of the Year at the 59th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday. But when she took the stage to accept the award, the visibly emotional singer told the audience that she shouldnt have won.
I cant possibly accept this award, and Im very humbled and Im very grateful and gracious, but my artist of my life is Beyonc and this album, to me, the Lemonade album, was so monumental Beyonc, Adele said of Beyoncs 2016 album, which was nominated in the same category as 25. It was so monumental and so well-thought-out and so beautiful and soul-baring, and we all got to see another side to you that you dont always let us see and we appreciate that.
You are our light, she added. And the way that you make me and my friends feel, the way you make my black friends feel, is empowering. You make them stand up for themselves and I love you. I always have and I always will.
The heartfelt speech brought Beyoncto tears as she sat and listened from the front row.
Adele ended up winning five Grammys on Sunday night, while Beyonc only took home two awards for Best Music Video and Best Urban Contemporary Album. According to Billboards Nat Adderley, no black woman has won Album of the Year since Lauryn Hill in 1999.
Adele also praised Beyonc after Hellowon Record of the Year minutes earlier, saying, My idol is Queen Bey, and I adore you and you move my soul every single day and you have done [so] for nearly 17 years. I adore you and I want you to be my mummy.
Adeles night actually started off rather awkwardly, when she stopped her tribute to the late George Michael because she felt it wasnt going well. But it all ended with the world applauding her.
