Beyoncé won six Grammy Awards at the 2010 ceremony, setting a record for a female artist at one ceremony.
The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards were held on January 31, 2010. Beyoncé’s six wins recognized work connected with her third studio album, I Am... Sasha Fierce, and its singles. Among the honors were Song of the Year for “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and Best Contemporary R&B Album.
The six-award total made her the female artist with the most Grammy wins in a single night at that time. The record was a ceremony-specific achievement, not a claim about her total career victories. Beyoncé’s 2010 haul also reflected the crossover reach of “Single Ladies,” which became one of her signature songs.
