If Michelle Williams Wins a Grammy for ‘Death Becomes Her,’ Destiny’s Child Will Match This Impressive Beatles Record

Michelle Williams is currently nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album for her work on the Broadway cast recording of Death Becomes Her, a musical adaptation of the 1992 film in which she stars. This nomination represents her first Grammy nod outside of her achievements with Destiny’s Child and her solo gospel career.

If Williams wins at the upcoming 68th Annual Grammy Awards, the longstanding lineup of Destiny’s Child — consisting of Williams, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Kelly Rowland — would achieve a rare distinction previously held only by The Beatles: every member of the group’s most commercially successful lineup would have won Grammy Awards for work outside the group.

Destiny’s Child originally gained acclaim and multiple Grammy wins as a group, while Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland have both earned Grammy recognition as solo artists over the years. Williams’s potential victory for Death Becomes Her would complete the trio’s sweep, matching the unique record held by The Beatles, in which each member also collected Grammys outside their band achievements.

The final round of Grammy voting continues ahead of the show scheduled for early 2026, with industry observers noting the historical implications should Williams secure the award.
