Beyoncé is going head-to-head with her husband Jay-Z for a 2025 Emmy after both landed nominations in the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) category for separate high-profile performances.
The Beyoncé Bowl halftime show, which streamed on Netflix during the NFL’s Christmas Day game, earned the 32-time Grammy winner her latest Emmy nod.
Meanwhile, Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, received a nomination as an executive producer of Kendrick Lamar’s Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show.
This isn’t Jay-Z’s first time in this Emmy lane.
He previously won the same award in 2022 for his production work on the Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show, which featured Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Lamar and 50 Cent.
The Carters are no strangers to sharing the spotlight during awards season.
In November 2023, Beyoncé tied Jay-Z as the most-nominated artist in Grammy history after scoring nine nominations for her genre-blending album Cowboy Carter, bringing her career total to 88.
The couple’s journey began in the early 2000s, when they started dating after meeting in their early 20s.
They married in a private ceremony in 2008 and have since welcomed three children: Blue Ivy in 2012 and twins Rumi and Sir in 2017.
The 2025 Emmy Awards will air later this year, with winners announced during the live broadcast.
