LOS ANGELES: Beyonce (pic) is already a winner at the 2017 Grammy Awards, taking best music video for the politically charged "Formation," but she won't be making Grammy history this year, at least not in the win column.

With a stunning nine nominations for her visual album, "Lemonade," Beyonce had a chance to break or at least tie two major Grammy records: most trophies in a single night -- Michael Jackson (1984) and Santana (2000) both scored eight Grammys each -- as well as the record for most all-time Grammy wins by a female artist. Alison Krauss currently owns the record with 27 wins; Beyonce now has 21 wins.
