Beyonce has been keeping busy on the headlines, all in one weekend. We will take a peek at a couple of highlights from the weekend that Beyonce is having and is set to have.
To kick off the weekend, BET announced their recipient of The Humanitarian Award and that would be Beyonce. This will be in honour of her BeyGOOD Initiative, her contributions to education through the formation scholarships for the young women in college and her contribution in Burundi with BeyGOOD4Burundi. The BET Awards will virtually take place this weekend and she will be the star of the show with this honoured award.
In other weekend news, Beyonce and Disney+ finally have a release date for their project. Some months back it was announced that Beyonce had signed a deal with Disney+ for the release of an unknown project and now the project has been named and some stills from it together with the trailer have been released. The project is titled ‘Black is King’. Based on the stills and the trailer, the ‘Black is King’ film might have tapped into her ‘Lion King; The Gift’ album for the inspiration. The project is set to be released on the 31st of July.
It definitely is a long weekend of endless celebration in the Knowles home. Catch Beyonce on the BET Award show tonight and on the 31st of July for her ‘Black is King’ film.
