Today’s leading female Pop stars, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, are no strangers to facing off in the music realm as they’ve seen their works go head-to-head at MTV’s Video Music Awards, the Grammy’s, American Music Awards, and more over the years.
However, January 5th brought with it the opportunity for their respective contributions to films to compete.
As we reported here, both singers were nominated in the 2020 Golden Globes’ ‘Best Original Song’ category for original tunes they created for feline-inspired, reimagined projects. Bey’s critically acclaimed ‘Spirit’ (for Disney’s 2019 live action remake of ‘Lion King’) joined Swift’s ‘Beautiful Ghosts’ (for the 2019 movie adaptation of the classic Broadway tale, ‘Cats’) as nominees in the category.
As their respective fan groups waited with bated breath to see which of the divas would walk away with the prized trophy, they were both stunned to learn it was the legendary Elton John‘s ‘Rocketman’ tune that soared to the gold.
Look inside to see his acceptance speech:
Spirit is such a bad song.
Beyonce doesnt deserve to win .
Same with that horrible Taylor swift song from cats
The Grammys love beyonce, so she will probably win the Grammy for spirit
I don’t see the surprise here.
No surprise. I hate sore losers and BOY the face of B and J; WOOOOOO child; you can’t and won’t win them all. Maybe the faces were screwed up because Elton told the truth about his version of Lion King and the new version; OH well:)
A white gay man won are we surprised ? Nope, the golden didn’t even nominate When They See Us & didn’t bother to watch Queen & Slim for consideration so we know how they get down.
Bey looks hurt.
You sissies love to hate on her just because the majority adores her and she’s unproblematic. Yet y’all don’t say much about Taylor Swift and her being. H03 dating 10 men the last decade. Smh just admit y’all don’t like her because you can’t find a flaw. Hating raCOONS
Remember that time beyonce did black face?
Her fans send death threats to women who breath the same air with jay z and she keeps quite.
She stole from African artists for her spirit video
To the fuckers that hate jlo f*** off!!!!! ..used to have a little now I have alot …she’s still jenny from the block
lol
Congratulations to Sir Elton John and hats off to beyonce and Taylor for being nominated! Looking forward to seeing my girl Rihanna join these ladies in nominated one day soon!?

The fact that Beyonce and Taylor was even nominated for those garbage songs that flopped is proof that they can buy themselves any award nomination SMMFH
Guess her payola wasn’t high enough to win something lololololol
Not that the Beyonce or Taylor songs were strong, but Elton winning is….yawn….zzzzzzz

Poor Elton.
The fact that his name was alongside these simpletons was foul. Legends should be among other legends.
