“#scammys”: ‘Beyonce robbed’ trends online in wake of Harry Styles winning AOTY at Grammys

While Beyonce might be the artist to have won more Grammys than any other artist in history, she still lost to Harry Styles this year when it came to the title of Album of the Year. As Styles’ Harry’s House won over Beyonce’s Renaissance, the internet was baffled over the fact that the Crazy in Love singer could not take the gramophone home for the Album of the Year.

Calling it “Scammys,” many social media users pointed out that it is Beyonce’s fourth year of not winning the Album of the Year award at the Grammys. One netizen took to Twitter and said:

To date, the Alien Superstar singer has won 32 Grammys in various categories. This year, the artist did not go home empty-handed, as she won the gramophone for the best R&B song for Cuff It.

Social media users infuriated over the fact that Beyonce yet again did not win Album of the Year at the Grammys

Beyonce is a megastar who has fans from all over the world. This is why when the Run the World singer lost to Harry Styles, fans were annoyed and confused as to why Renaissance did not win the Best Album award.

A few called out the award show and highlighted the fact that Beyonce has been “robbed” of the award for 4 years now.

Many fans also highlighted the fact that the singer might have won the most number of Grammys, but sadly, she hasn’t been the recipient of the best album trophy. Harry Styles also talked about how the other singers inspired him deeply and said:

In addition to Harry Styles, other nominees included Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, singer and flutist Lizzo, British vocalist Adele, and disco-era Swedish hitmaker ABBA.
