After winning four Grammys earlier this month and becoming the most decorated female artist of all time with 28 Grammys in total, Beyoncé wasn't done. The singer dominated the NAACP Image Awards this week, which is announcing this year's winners via streaming and over five nights ahead of the live ceremony on Saturday.
On Thursday, Beyoncé scored four wins in total, for Outstanding Female Artist for “Black Parade” and Outstanding Music Video for “Brown Skin Girl,” which is a win that also goes to her daughter Blue Ivy.

She shared her other two wins with Megan Thee Stallion for "Savage Remix," picking up Outstanding Duo, Group or Collaboration (Contemporary) and Outstanding Hip-Hop/Rap Song.
It caps off a big month for the singer – and her daughter, who also won her first Grammy for "Brown Skin Girl," on which she has a writing credit. Days after the Grammys, Beyoncé posted a montage to Instagram of her 28 awards, along with a shot of Blue Ivy drinking out of her very own Grammy while wearing a matching gold crown, natch.
Blue Ivy's win made her the second-youngest artist to ever win a Grammy after Leah Peasall, who won in 2001 for her work on the soundtrack to O Brother, Where Art Thou? at age 8. Looks like Blue Ivy is one to watch out for (shocker!).
Other NAACP winners included the soundtrack for Pixar’s Soul for Outstanding Soundtrack, which went to Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, Jon Batiste and Tom MacDougall. Meanwhile, Drake won Outstanding Male artist for “Laugh Now, Cry Later"; Doja Cat won Outstanding New Artist for "Say So"; Chloe x Halle won Outstanding R&B Song for "Do It"; and Jhené Aiko, who went home empty-handed at the Grammys, won Outstanding Album for Chilombo.
Winners outside of the music categories included the great Michaela Coel's I May Destroy You for Best Writing in a Comedy Series; Attica Locke for Little Fires Everywhere for Drama Series Writing; John Lewis: Good Trouble for Best Documentary (Film); The Last Dance for Best Documentary (TV — Series or Special); Barack Obama's A Promised Land for Best Non-Fiction Literary Work; and so many more.
The NAACP Image Awards, which spotlights Black excellence in TV, music, literature and film, will continue its streaming presentation tonight ahead of the live show on Saturday, March 27 at 8 p.m., which will air on CBS.
