00:03 Kelly Rowland is applauding Jay-Z

00:06 after he stands up for his wife, Beyonce.

00:09 The Destiny's Child star reacts to Hova's speech

00:12 at the 2024 Grammys when he threw some major shade

00:16 at the recording academy for failing to recognize Beyonce

00:20 for Album of the Year, despite being the most decorated

00:24 artist in the award show's history.

00:26 Kelly tells Entertainment Tonight,

00:28 "Sean Carter is one of the greatest men I know,

00:31 "and his words ring so loud to me."

00:34 She adds, "I couldn't be more proud of him,

00:37 "and I'm just really happy for a lot of things that he said.

00:41 "I think that he made a lot of artists feel very seen

00:44 "and very heard in those minutes that he took on stage."

00:48 The 42-year-old goes on to gush over Bey,

00:51 explaining, "I feel like she is an icon,

00:53 "and that's for a reason.

00:55 "It's because she starts trends.

00:58 "She is innovative, her thoughts are big and bright,

01:00 "and she just jumps for them and does it.

01:03 "I think that her albums are a reflection of that,

01:06 "and it should be really celebrated in that way.

01:08 "I've seen the blood, sweat, and tears

01:11 "that she puts into these projects,

01:13 "and her thoughts and her heart

01:14 "and her passion and her soul."

01:16 Jay-Z shocked the crowd with comments he made

01:19 while accepting the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award

01:22 at the Grammys on February 4th.

01:24 With his daughter Blue Ivy by his side,

01:26 the rapper took the moment to call out the music community

01:30 for snubbing his wife.

01:32 I don't wanna embarrass this young lady,

01:33 but she has more Grammys than everyone

01:35 and never won Album of the Year.

01:37 So even by your own metrics, that doesn't work.

01:40 Think about that.

01:43 Most Grammys, never won Album of the Year.

01:45 That doesn't work.

01:46 You know?

01:48 Beyoncé has been nominated

01:50 for 88 competitive Grammy awards, winning 32 of them.

01:54 But even though Bey has been nominated six times

01:57 for Album of the Year, she's never won that category.
