Beyonce Makes History with 6 Grammy Awards - A "Bits and Bites" Extra

Sunday night, January 31, 2010, at the Staples Center, Beyonce earned six Grammys, the most any woman has won in a single night in the Grammys' 52-year history.  Those six included a win for "Song of the Year" for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," an award she shared with the song's three co-writers.

The big awards were evenly split.  Taylor Swift's Fearless won the night's biggest award, "Album of the Year," beating out Beyonce's I Am...Sasha Fierce, among others.  The Kings of Leon won "Record of the Year" for "Use Somedy," from their album, Only by the Night.  The Zac Brown Band won "Best New Artist."
