You might have heard of “Push Presents” and a Baby shower party to celebrate an impending arrival, but leave it to megastar Beyonce to have Push Party!
The multi-award winning recording artist starred in the festive West African themed affair held at a private residence in Beverly Hills, California.
Guests came dressed in colorful headdresses including some from Burkinabaé and also in gelées, kufis, and Ankara styles.
The guest of honor herself donned a cropped African print top and garrah with her head wrap common in Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Gambia and Sierra Leone which she accented with henna tattoos on her belly, a pregnant lady trend we’ve posted about in the past. Her oversize authentic bamboo fan earrings and jewelry all area native to West African costumes.
In Instagram posts Bey’s mom Tina Lawson shared on line, guests included Serena Williams, our Bumpwatch Alum Kelly Rowland who dressed in a Batik tie-dyed off-the-shoulder halter top and slim skirt, LaLa Anthony and another alum Vanessa Bryant also in a Burkinabaé head wrap and jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.
Black and White photos circulating on the Internet showed the venue decorated in African fabric as music from the late Nigerian artist Fela Kuti.
Also, her husband Rapper Jay Z was spotted dancing and having a ball.
We imagine a push party did not involve giving of gifts.
Or it could mean she’s closer to pushing than we think Her mom was spotted at Cedars-Sinai hospital in LA this week.
Back to the fete:The guests posted photos of the festivities on each of their respective Social media feeds using the hashtag #CarterPushParty. Check them out.
