When Blake Lively [1] stepped onto the red carpet [2] at the NYC premiere of her new movie, The Shallows [3], on Tuesday evening, she was channeling a very special person throughout the night: Beyoncé. That's right — even stunning Hollywood actresses like to pretend they're Queen Bey every now and then. Blake, who has been friends with her for years after meeting at a charity event [4] in 2014 and later costarred in Beyoncé and Jay Z's "On the Run" video [5], stayed extra close to the Beyhive when she wore the exact same earrings the "Formation" singer once donned [6].
"Well, she wore them to the CFDAs," Blake said about her earrings while speaking to E! News [7] at the premiere. "Yes! We're the same person tonight! I am Beyoncé. I'm going to drop the most revolutionary album of all time. I feel like I am, at least." So how does Blake's shark flick stand up to Beyoncé's Lemonade? "Well, c'mon, if this movie could just be a drop in the bucket to what Lemonade does to my heart, then I am happy, happy, happy." You may all refer to Blake as Beyoncé Lively from now on.
