I’m perplexed. Yes, Beyonce looks great in that sleek Versace, but what she does NOT look like is: Beyonce. Somebody better-versed in the visual language of Beyonce can probably parse this decision to show up — at the movie of a tour that truly crowned her as one of her generation’s premier entertainers — looking like about six other people. I’m seeing a Kardashian crossed with Lady Gaga, tossed with some Targaryen DNA. I DO think Bey would make an effective Mother of Dragons, but as far as I’m currently aware, nobody has invented those yet and so she’s getting way ahead of herself with this. I’m sure Elon Musk is working on it, which also means they’ll probably incinerate us all.
