Michelle Obama, wife of former United States President, Barack Obama, has congratulated Beyonce on her record-breaking Grammy achievement. Beyoncé made history when she won her 28th Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance with “Black Parade,” to become the most-decorated Grammy-winning female artist of all time, breaking the previous record set by Alison Krauss, People reports.

Recognising the ‘Brown Skin Girl’ singer’s achievement via her verified Twitter handle on Tuesday, Barrack Obama’s wife was full of appreciation to Beyonce whose work brings “so much pride.”

She tweeted, “So amazed by @Beyonce and her record-breaking 28 #GRAMMYs wins! Congrats, Queen Bey—album after album, your music continues to define and elevate the moment, bringing us joy, soothing our pain, and filling our hearts with so, so much pride. Two hearts.”

In the same vein, Michelle also congratulated another record braking female artist at the just concluded 63rd Grammy Awards ceremony, Taylor Swift.

The ‘Roar’ singer became the first woman to win the Album of the Year category three times after her album “Folklore,” bested her competitors in this year’s virtual edition held on Sunday in Los Angeles.

“And congrats to @TaylorSwift13 on her record-breaking third #GRAMMYs win for Album of the Year! I’m so proud of all the artists who continue to use their music and talents to inspire us all,” Michelle tweeted.

Swift is only the fourth artist, male or female, to accomplish the historic achievement.
