Diplo Expresses Pride in Sharing Grammy Nominations with Beyoncé

Diplo, a renowned producer and DJ, addressed the recent speculation surrounding his reaction to Beyoncé’s win at the recent Grammy Awards.

The singer won the award for Best Dance/Electronic Music Album and was nominated in the same category for a clip by Diplo where he appeared to say, “They bought it.” 

However, in a recent Instagram post, Diplo cleared up the speculation by sharing the clip and subtitling himself with the milder phrase “I’m glad to be part of this.”

He praised Beyoncé and expressed his pride at seeing his own nomination on the screen in such a large venue in the post’s caption.

“She deserves her flowers,” he wrote in the caption. “When she won, I was just proud to see my nomination on the screen in the huge arena.”

This response from Diplo reflects his great respect for Beyoncé and her accomplishments. The singer is widely regarded as one of the greatest artists of our time and her recent awards are a testament to her talent and hard work.
