Beyonce receives her first-ever Daytime Emmy Award nomination
Award-winning 40-year-old Beyonce Knowles has received her first-ever Daytime Emmy Award nomination in the history of her career.
Knowles has been nominated in the Outstanding Original Song category for her 90’s sitcom-inspired tune, “Talks with Mama Tina Theme Song”, a track that she wrote for her mother’s Facebook talk show.
Despite earning eight Primetime Emmy nominations since 2013, Beyonce has yet to take home one of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ prestigious trophies. If she wins, she’ll become one step closer to the coveted EGOT title, which has only ever been earned by 16 other people.
The potential accolade comes after she’s earned 28 Grammy Awards and a recent Academy Award nomination for her track Be Alive featured in the film King Richard.
Beyonce came close to adding an Emmy to her trophy collection after receiving a whopping six Emmy nominations for her film, “Homecoming”.
Homecoming documented her intense preparation for her 2018 Coachella appearance. She earned nods in the Outstanding Variety Special (pre-recorded), Outstanding Directing besides co-creator Ed Burke, Outstanding Music Direction, Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special, Outstanding Production Design, and Outstanding Costume categories.
Previously, she was nominated for Outstanding Variety, Music, or Comedy Special Nominated and Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special for her 2016 HBO special/ ‘visual album’ Lemonade.
She was also nominated for 2015’s On the Run Tour: Beyoncé and Jay-Z and for her 2013 Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show.
