The show in her hometown of Houston brought the live debut of songs from her "Cowboy Carter" album.
The special Emmy is Beyonce's first. She has been nominated for 10 others without a victory. And it takes her halfway to an EGOT with her 35 Grammys. She still needs a Tony and an Oscar to complete the quartet.
The award was among a handful of so-called juried Emmys announced Tuesday that are determined outside the regular voting process and given out by committees, with no official nominees. They are usually highly technical - several involve individual elements of the animation process - and rarely go to famous names. They are announced in advance and handed out at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony next month.

Beyonce is also nominated for best variety special as a producer of "Beyonce Bowl" and for best direction of a variety special. Her husband, Jay-Z, is competing against her as an executive producer of Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show.

Rajinikanth's Coolie has a Christopher Nolan movie inspiration: Guess the unexpected Hollywood twist
Tamil filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj , known for blending Indian cinema with global influences, has reportedly drawn inspiration from Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight for his upcoming film Coolie. According to Tollywood star Nagarjuna Akkineni, who plays the villain in the film, Lokesh referenced Heath Ledger's iconic Joker for the character's costumes and overall vibe. Pinkvilla reported that Nagarjuna explained in a conversation with Shruti Haasan that the director wanted to capture the 'madness' he saw in Joker, particularly through the costume design. 'I think Loki had Heath Ledger's Joker in his mind, and he wanted that madness. He probably saw the madness in the colour as well,' Nagarjuna said, highlighting the unique purple-and-cream costume he dons in the movie.
