Beyoncé Wins First Grammy in a Country Category for ‘II Most Wanted’ With Miley Cyrus

Beyoncé was officially awarded her first country Grammy at the 2025 pre-ceremony on Sunday (Feb. 2). It’s her first time to be honored with a win in a country category by the Recording Academy.

Beyoncé’s “II Most Wanted” featuring Miley Cyrus, from Bey’s Cowboy Carter album, was named the best country duo/group performance winner on Sunday. The award for their duet marks Beyonce’s 33rd Grammy win of her career, and Cyrus’ third after collecting her first two Grammys last year for “Flowers” (for record of the year and best pop solo performance).

The award was announced during the 67th annual Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony on Sunday. The Premiere Ceremony, which features the reveal of winners in a number of Grammys categories not aired during the televised portion of the ceremony, was broadcast online via the Recording Academy’s YouTube channel and on live.GRAMMY.com, ahead of the televised ceremony on CBS that begins at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

The night is still young for Beyoncé, who leads all 2025 Grammy nominees with 11 nods and is the most-nominated artist in the show’s history.

In addition to her already-announced win with Cyrus in the best country/duo group performance category, Beyoncé’s nominations this year include: album of the year for Cowboy Carter, record of the year for “Texas Hold ‘Em,” song of the year for “Texas Hold ‘Em,” best pop solo performance for “Bodyguard,” best pop duo/group performance for “Levii’s Jeans” feat.
