Queen Bey was emotional and even paused as the crowd gave her the standing ovation she deserves!

“Thank you so much. I’m trying not to be too emotional and I’m trying to just receive this night. I wanna thank God for protecting me. Thank you, God. I’d like to thank my Uncle Johnny, who is not here but he’s here in spirit. I’d like to thank my parents—my father, my mother—for loving me and pushing me,” she said. “I’d like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three children who are at home watching. I’d like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre. God bless you! Thank you so much to the Grammys! Thank you!”

She also celebrated the big news on Instagram, giving her fans and some of her collaborators some love.

“To my Hive, thank y’all so much for all of your love and loyalty! Big thank you for the BREAK MY SOUL and CUFF IT wins!!! To The Dream, Tricky, HOV, and Big Freedia,” she wrote. “I love y’all!”
