At the 2014 Grammy Awards, how many awards did Beyoncé win?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé won no awards at the 2014 Grammy Awards.

The 56th Annual Grammy Awards took place on January 26, 2014, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Beyoncé was nominated for two awards connected with her music, but she did not win either category. The ceremony is especially remembered for her performance with Jay-Z of “Drunk in Love,” which opened the televised broadcast.

Beyoncé’s self-titled album had been released unexpectedly in December 2013, after the eligibility period for the 2014 ceremony had closed. As a result, that influential album did not compete at the 2014 Grammys. It received major recognition at the following ceremony, where “Drunk in Love” won Best R&B Performance.

The zero-award result is easy to misremember because Beyoncé was a major presence at the ceremony and the performance was widely discussed. The question concerns wins at that specific event, not nominations, performances, or awards received in later years.
