When we think of the Grammy Awards, we think of Beyoncé and Taylor Swift.

Let Us make one thing clear — there’s no pitting these two powerhouses against each other. Both women have broken records and shattered ceilings throughout their careers, and they each dominate at the annual awards show in their own lanes. However, Swift and Beyoncé have frequently gone head-to-head in categories including Album of the Year and Song of the Year, with only one artist capable of coming out on top.

The trend continues with the 2025 Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 2. Beyoncé earned more nominations than any other artist, racking up 11 nods for her album Cowboy Carter. Already the artist with the most wins in Grammys history, Beyoncé’s 2025 entries bumped her career total to 99 nominations, breaking yet another record.

 

Swift, for her part, became the first woman to earn seven Album of the Year nods following the release of her 11th album, The Tortured Poets Department. She scored an additional five nominations at the 2025 awards, including Song of the Year, marking her eighth time competing in the category.

As Beyoncé and Swift prepare to fill their trophy cases even further, Us is breaking down the duo’s history at the Grammy Awards dating back to 2010. (And once again, there’s no comparison here. Just the facts.)

Scroll below to see how many times Beyoncé and Swift have been nominated in the same category and to see who won:
