Beyoncé’s decision not to attend the Grammys has been officially confirmed, putting an end to speculation. Turner, an iconic figure in music, died in May, leaving a legacy of groundbreaking performances and timeless songs.

While Beyoncé’s absence may disappoint some, Turner, a musical icon, died in May, leaving a legacy of groundbreaking performances and timeless hits. Memorable musical performances and moving tributes to industry legends.

A representative for the superstar confirmed the news to The Hollywood Reporter after rumors circulated on social media that she would take the stage to honor the late icon, Tina Turner.

Last month, the Australian Today show tweeted that Beyonce would pay tribute to Turner onstage, and the news has since spread on X (formerly known as Twitter), leading many to believe it is true. Turner died in her home in Kusnacht, near Zurich, Switzerland, last May after a lengthy illness.

Halle Bailey, Summer Walker, and Coco Jones are honored at the Pre-Grammy High Tea Party. At the 2008 Grammys, Beyoncé and Turner delivered an electrifying performance of “Proud Mary.”

When Turned died, Beyoncé posted a photo of herself with the legend on her website, captioned “My beloved queen.” I will never stop loving you. I am grateful for your inspiration and all the ways you have paved the way. You exemplify strength and resilience. You are the embodiment of power and passion. We are all so fortunate to have witnessed your kindness and beautiful spirit, which will last forever. Thank you for everything you have done!”
