    Social media users are feeling frustrated after Beyoncé won exactly zero trophies at the 2024 People's Choice Country Awards (PCCAs).

    The fan-voted country music awards show held in Nashville, Tenn., on Thursday, Sept. 26, ended with no new resume additions for the "Run the World" songstress, who was nominated for 12 awards. Though Beyoncé herself did not attend the second annual ceremony in person, fans still had some strong feelings about the results, which they were more than happy to share with others online.

    Taking to X (formerly Twitter) to air out their grievances, fans argued that the lack of recognition for Beyoncé, who released her first-ever country album Cowboy Carter back in March, was "a disgrace."

    "They could have at least gave her one award. So stupid," one person tweeted.

    “Not a single one," another fan noted. "So who else feels like fighting right now? Who’s gonna pay? Cause I’m not letting this go.”

    “Burn it all down!” another fan urged, while one person suggested that the relatively new PCCAs “used Beyoncé nominations for views."

    Going into Thursday night's ceremony, Beyoncé was nominated in 10 different categories, earning two nods each for the Female Song of 2024 ("16 CARRIAGES" and "TEXAS HOLD 'EM") and the Cover Song of 2024 ("BLACKBIIRD" and " JOLENE .")

    She was also nominated for some of the biggest awards of the night, including the People's Artist of 2024, Female Artist of 2024 and Album of 2024.

    Bey's losses were especially disappointing following the controversy involving the Country Music Association, which left the "Partition" singer out of every category for this year's list of nominees. Despite this year's release of Cowboy Carter , Beyoncé wasn't recognized for the upcoming awards show at all. Meanwhile, Post Malone , who also dropped his first country album this year, scored four noms.

    Various celebrities, including Whoopi Goldberg , Kelly Clarkson and even the country queen herself, Dolly Parton , have given their two cents on the situation, weighing in on whether they agree that Beyoncé was snubbed.

    However, the website for the Country Music Association notes that this year's nominees were "determined by 6,609 eligible voting CMA members comprised of professionals within the Country Music industry."
