How many Grammy Awards did Beyoncé win for “Single Ladies”?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé won three Grammy Awards for “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).”

The song appeared on her 2008 album I Am... Sasha Fierce and became one of her signature recordings. The Grammy wins came at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards in 2010, where the song won Song of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and Best R&B Song.

“Single Ladies” was written by Terius Nash, Christopher Stewart, Beyoncé, and Thaddis Harrell. Its sharply choreographed black-and-white music video became especially influential, with the dance widely imitated in popular culture.

A common mix-up is the distinction between awards for the song and Beyoncé’s total awards at that ceremony. She won six Grammys at the 2010 ceremony, while “Single Ladies” itself was credited with three wins. The song did not win Record of the Year.
