Despite rumours that Beyoncé “skipped” her own Renaissance movie premiere red carpet, Queen Bey was very much in the building.
Though there were reports that Beyoncé did not walk the red carpet at the Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills on 25 November, her publicist Yvette Noel-Schure shared photos of the 42-year-old singer posing in front of the same silver curtain as everyone else. Dressed in a glittering silver Versace gown and matching gloves, Beyoncé debuted bum-length, pin-straight platinum blonde hair.
Teen Vogue reports that Beyoncé was one of the last to arrive, which may be why some fans thought she missed the event completely. Sorry to those Getty photographers… Luckily, Mason Poole was in the house to capture the moment. You can see his images of her new look here. It’s very Mother of Dragons.
This fresh hair colour comes just over a month after Beyoncé rocked “Chantilly blonde” hair at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concert movie premiere in October, courtesy of hairstylist Rita Hazan. Unfortunately, Taylor could not attend Beyoncé’s premiere as she was performing in São Paulo, Brazil.
You know who was there? The women of Destiny’s Child: Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, plus original members LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson. Not to mention Kris Jenner, Laverne Cox, and a host of other celebrities…
As Queen Clarisse Renaldi famously said in The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, “A queen is never late. Everyone else is simply early.” Of course, the rule applies to Beyoncé.
