Is Beyoncé Appearing on the 'Black Panther' Soundtrack? Fans Are Convinced
Beyoncé was not playing games with her fashion this weekend at the Grammys. She wore not one, not two, but three outfits over the course of the weekend that slew her fans to their core. And there was a common thread among all of them. For one, all three dresses she chose were black, but the tie was deeper than that: They each referenced, in some way, black panthers.
Let’s start with this first outfit, below. Flip through the post, and you’ll notice her earrings are shaped like panthers.
Now, for the look she rocked at the Clive Davis pre-Grammy gala on Saturday night: It’s head-to-toe black, with a curve silhouette that seems very pantherlike.
And, of course, there was this look from the actual Grammys ceremony. Beyoncé paired her all-black dress with a clutch shaped like—you guessed it—a panther.
So what does this all mean? Possibly nothing, but Beyoncé doesn’t do anything by accident. She gave several hints about Lemonade before it dropped, and fans think she’s suggesting something with these looks too: that she’s involved with the new Black Panther film in some way.
It makes sense, when you think about it. First off, the timing is right: Black Panther hits theaters nationwide on February 16, so Bey’s looks might be subtle ramp-up for the film. That said, it could also be a reference to the Black Panther Party: Bey reportedly paid homage to the Black Panthers during her 2016 Super Bowl halftime show appearance.
But fans think this means Bey makes an appearance on the upcoming Black Panther soundtrack, specifically, because the track list, save for two songs, is still unknown. Maybe Queen B appears multiple times on the soundtrack, like Kendrick Lamar. It’s certainly possible.
Here are just some of the fans who’re convinced Beyoncé is sending a Marvel message with her looks:

Fingers crossed this is true. There are a million reasons why this would be amazing, but the number-one is that we desperately need new Beyoncé music.
