Beyoncé took to Instagram on Friday, June 7th to pay homage to Prince, on what would have been the late icon’s 66th birthday.
The 42-year-old “Texas Hold’em” hitmaker simply captioned the post with a purple heart emoji, which is of course a tribute to the “Purple Rain” singer’s signature color. The post also appeared to coincide with celebrating Pride Month, as she was sporting a rainbow-flag-adorned accessory!

The “Run the World” singer and style icon posed in a black Prince and the Revolution graphic T-shirt in the Instagram carousel, which she teamed with light-wash high-waisted jeans that highlighted her teeny tiny waist, and black boots.
The rest of the accessories were on point too, as the Cécred founder added an oversized brown fur coat, black sunglasses, a chunky silver necklace, and earrings. Another notable accessory was her denim Balenciaga bag featuring two rainbow flags on it. Naturally, the singer’s homage to the late “Kiss” singer and her recognition of Pride Month didn’t go unnoticed in the comment section…
