Beyonce took home the top honor at the Country Music Awards last night, much to the surprise of many. The singer’s performance of her song “Daddy Lessons” was a hit with the crowd, and she took home the award for Best Collaboration.
Beyonce’s Historic Win
At the 53rd annual Country Music Association Awards, held in Nashville on Wednesday night, Beyonce made history as the first woman of color to win the coveted Entertainer of the Year prize.
The CMA Awards are country music’s biggest night, and Beyonce’s win is a huge deal not just for her, but for representation in the genre. Her award comes just months after she released her hit album, “Lemonade,” which featured country-influenced tracks like “Daddy Lessons” and “Daddy Issues.”
In her acceptance speech, Beyonce thanked the CMA Foundation, as well as her husband, Jay-Z, and daughter, Blue Ivy. She also gave a shout-out to the late country legend Dolly Parton, who was in attendance at the awards show.
“This has been such an incredible year for music,” Beyonce said. “I am so honored to be included in this evening.”
Parton later took the stage to present Beyonce with a second award: the coveted Album of the Year prize for “Lemonade.”
“Thank you so much, Bey,” Parton said as she handed over the award. “I love you.”
In addition to her two wins, Beyonce was also nominated for three other CMA Awards: Female Vocalist of the Year, Single of the Year for “Daddy Lessons,” and Music Event of the Year for “Forever Country.”

What Beyonce’s Win Means
By winning the CMA award for music video of the year, Beyonce has made history as the first African American woman to take home the top honor at the Country Music Awards. This is a huge win not only for Beyonce, but for diversity in country music as a whole.
This is a significant moment not only because Beyonce is an African American woman, but also because she is a pop star who crossover into the country world with her song “Daddy Lessons.” This win shows that country music is becoming more inclusive and willing to embrace new sounds and artists.
This is a big win for Beyonce and her fans, but it also shows that country music is evolving and becoming more inclusive of different genres and artists. We hope to see more moments like this in the future!
