Who has won the most Grammys awards?

Grammy wins: 28

Beyonce received her first Grammy when she was in Destiny’s Child, winning two awards for their No. 1 smash Say My Name in 2001.

She has also had five wins with husband Jay-Z for their hit singles Crazy in Love and Drunk in Love, plus their joint album Everything Is Love.

She managed to top the leader board with 28 awards after scooping three more Grammys at the 2021 ceremony.

You’ll be hard to find a blockbuster movie which hasn’t had its score composed by John.

As well as the Grammys, he has also won big at the Oscars.

But while he’s only taken home five Academy Awards, he’s won nearly five times as much at the Grammys, with his most recent in 2017.

6) Chick Corea
