Adele has apparently turned down the Grammy award for best album, saying Beyonce deserved it more.
The pop star was given the night’s top honor for her multi-million selling record 25, but said, “I can’t possibly accept this award. I’m very humbled and I’m very grateful, but Beyonce is the artist of my life”.

I appreciate Adele, her work & her acknowledgement of how truly once-in-a-lifetime Beyonce’s LEMONADE is, especially to black women. 🙌🏾✊🏾🍋
