Beyonce wins 6 Grammys
R&B diva Beyonce dominated the 52nd Grammys here on Sunday with six awards, edging out country star Taylor Swift who finished the music industry extravaganza with four prizes.
Beyonce - who had topped the nominations with 10 nods - won the prestigious Song of the Year award for her hit 'Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)', which also earned her the best female R&B vocal award.
The former Destiny's Child singer also snagged Grammys for best R&B song for 'Single Ladies' and best contemporary R&B album for her chart-topping 'I Am ... Sasha Fierce' as well as best traditional R&B vocal performance for 'At Last.'
'Wow thank you so much. This has been such an amazing night for me,' Beyonce said after collecting the best female pop vocal performance, her sixth award of the night at the Staples Center.
However Beyonce - who dazzled the audience with an electrifying performance - was forced to share the honors in the other blue riband categories of Record of the Year and Album of the Year.
Swift scored a stunning victory in Album of the Year for 'Fearless' while the Kings of Leon looked as surprised as anyone else when they were named winners of Record of the Year for 'Use Somebody.'
