AceShowbiz - Beyonce Knowles has proven that she supports other artists, including SZA. Upon learning that SZA won several awards at the 2024 Grammy Awards, the "Break My Soul" hitmaker sent the "Kill Bill" songstress a flower arrangement and sweet message.
On Wednesday, February 7, the 34-year-old R&B star made use of Instagram Story to upload a photo capturing the flower arrangement from Queen Bey. The gift featured a message that read, "I'm so happy for you beautiful! Watching you grow and watching you win is an honor. Sending you a huge congrats talented queen. All of my love and respect, B."
Over the picture, SZA voiced her appreciation to Beyonce for her supportive gesture. She noted, "Thank you for seeing me before anyone else saw me. Thank you for making me feel valuable when I was the tiniest in the room."
"Thank you for shining your light on me and pouring into me with Goddess level kindness. May God continue to protect and bless you queen," SZA went on to write. Near the end of it, she tagged the Instagram account of Beyonce and added sparkle, orange heart and bee emojis.
That same day, SZA revealed the reason why she did not approach Queen Bey when they were at the 66th annual event. Speaking to Francesca Amiker from E! News, she admitted, "I was scared to go over to Beyonce. I can't speak unless she wants to speak, in my brain, because I don't want to bother her. She looked so peaceful and beautiful. I just admire her. She's a masterclass on poise, grace, artistry, beauty and kindness."
Despite not interacting with Beyonce, SZA had a conversation with another Carter family member, Jay-Z. She recalled, "Jay-Z did speak to me. I was so grateful. Those are literally my favorite people, and it's so crazy that I be seeing them in real life." During the chat, she showered the "Empire State of Mind" spitter with praise and called him her "all-time favorite." She then exclaimed, "Jay-Z means the world to me. I'm a Jay-Z stan so bad."
At the Sunday night, February 4 award show, SZA took home three Grammy trophies. She was honored with Best R&B Song for "Snooze", Best Urban Contemporary Album for "SOS" and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for a collaborative song with Phoebe Bridgers titled "Ghost in the Machine".
