My Album of the Year is Lemonade, she tells reporters backstage "I spoke to her before just to let her know how honored and privileged I felt to be nominated alongside her, and we spoke afterward as well and she was very gracious and humble—as always, as we've come to expect," the singer told reporters. "And the reason I felt the need to say something is because my album of the year is Lemonade. She is my icon of my whole life."
