Kacey Musgraves addresses reaction to Beyonce winning Best Country Album at Grammys 2025
No shade here.
Kacey Musgraves shut down the rumors that she was upset about losing the Grammy Award for Best Country Album to Beyoncé.
“It’s a sensationalistic false narrative meant to pit two talented female artists against each other,” a rep for Musgraves, 36, told E! News in a statement on Monday.
“There was simply no scowl or expression made,” the rep added.
The Post has reached out to Musgraves’ rep for comment.
During Sunday’s show, some viewers accused the “Deeper Well” singer of looking “pissed” when Beyoncé, 43, beat her in the award category.
While Bey was stunned over the outcome and accepted the award from Taylor Swift, the camera panned to reactions from attendees in the audience, including Musgraves, who clapped with a serious look on her face.
“Kacey Musgraves is pissed that Beyonce beat her for best country album, look at her face expression,” a Grammys viewer wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
“Kacey Musgraves is MAAAAAAD,” a different fan said.
Musgraves’ “Deeper Well,” Post Malone’s “F-1 Trillion,” Chris Stapleton’s “Higher” and Lainey Wilson’s “Whirlwind” all lost the Best Country Album award to Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter.”
Bey also won Grammys for Album of the Year, for the first time in her career, and for Best Country Duo/Group Performance alongside Miley Cyrus for their duet “II Most Wanted.”
Musgraves shared her feelings about Beyoncé and other artists transitioning into country music in an interview last year.
“The more the f—ing merrier. I don’t really care,” she told The Cut.
“It doesn’t affect what I’m doing. It doesn’t affect me. I’ve always been just doing my own thing. It’s just fun to watch,” the “Golden Hour” singer said.
Musgraves won her eighth Grammy this weekend, taking home Best Country Song for “The Architect” against Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em,” Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Jelly Roll’s “I Am Not Okay,” and Post Malone and Morgan Wallen’s “I Had Some Help.”
“Wow, gosh. I did not expect that,” she said in her acceptance speech during the Grammys 2025 preshow.
“First of all, I have the absolute best team in the world, I have the best fans in the world, and ultimately I just want to say: There’s so much darkness in this world right now, and it just feels so good to be able to fight some of that darkness through song,” she continued. “It’s such an honor. Thank you.”
