Beyoncé had won 28 Grammy Awards by the 63rd Grammy Awards ceremony in 2021.
At the ceremony, held on March 14, 2021, Beyoncé won four awards connected with her work, including Best R&B Performance for “Black Parade.” Those victories raised her career total to 28 Grammy wins, making her the most awarded woman and the most awarded singer in Grammy history at that point.
Her 2021 wins also included Best Music Video for “Brown Skin Girl,” Best Rap Song for Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage Remix,” and Best R&B Performance for “Black Parade.” The “Savage Remix” award recognized Beyoncé as a featured artist and songwriter alongside Megan Thee Stallion and other credited writers.
The total is time-specific: Beyoncé has won additional Grammys at later ceremonies, so 28 is not her current lifetime total. This question refers specifically to the count announced after the 2021 ceremony, avoiding confusion between a historical record and a later updated tally.
