Beyoncé‘s push into the world of Country music has yielded another career win as she has emerged with the second highest number of nominations for the upcoming People’s Choice County Music Awards.
According to Billboard, Bey has received a total of 17 nods for the upcoming ceremony, just two less than Country star Zach Bryan.

The first two singles from her genre-bending album Cowboy Carter — “16 Carriages” and “Texas Hold ‘Em” — are both nominated for The Female Song of 2024. She’s also nominated twice in The Cover Song of 2024 category, for her renditions of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” and The Beatles’ “Blackbird” — which features rising Country stars Brittney Spencer, Reyna Roberts, Tanner Adell and Tiera Kennedy.
Mrs. Knowles-Carter is also nominated for The People’s Artist of 2024, The Social Country Star of 2024, The Album of 2024, The Song of 2024 (“Texas Hold ‘Em”), The Collaboration Song of 2024 (“Blackbird”), The Crossover Song of 2024 (“II Most Wanted,” her duet with Miley Cyrus), and The Storyteller Song of 2024 (“16 Carriages”).
While his appearance on Cowboy Carter‘s “Levii’s Jeans” did not earn a song nomination, Post Malone landed six nominations of his own, five of which were for his collaboration with Morgan Wallen on the song “I Had Some Help.”
All winners at the People’s Country Music Awards — a self-proclaimed “award show for the people and by the people” — will be decided by fan votes during a pretty tight voting period, which started on Wednesday (August 13) and ends next Friday (August 23).
All votes entered on Tuesday (August 20), a.k.a. “Turbo Tuesday,” will be counted twice. Fans can view the full list of nominees, eligibility guidelines and cast their ballots at VotePCCA.com.
While she’s had her fair share of critics, Beyonce has received plenty of love from the Country space as well.
Earlier this summer, some of her classic pop and R&B songs received the Country treatment thanks to a few rising Black singers in the genre.
As part of Apple Music’s ‘Nashville Sessions’ series, Beyoncé Covered features Brittney Spencer, Tanner Adell, Joy Oladokun, BRELAND and more taking on hits that include “1+1,” “Drunk in Love,” “Irreplaceable,” “Sandcastles,” “II Most Wanted” and “Halo.”
“Beyoncé has opened a door that’s going to be really hard to close,” Tiera Kennedy, who’s also featured on the six-song playlist, told Apple Music.
Cowboy Carter has been a major success since its release in March. The album debuted atop the Billboard 200 tally with 407,000 equivalent album units in its first week, making for the biggest sales week of 2024 at the time – though it has since been one-upped by Taylor Swift’s latest effort.
Twenty three of the album’s 27 songs also made it to the Billboard Hot 100 chart, bringing the Houston native’s career total Billboard Hot 100 songs to 106. She is now just the 17th artist and only the third woman to score over 100 entries since the Hot 100 was launched in 1958.
