It may be just a Friday to ordinary people, but to us, today is a global holiday — BeyDay.
September 4th marks the birthday of our very own Queen Bey, Beyoncé, who is known for lighting up the stage with her infectious energy and infectious songs. She’s bold, beautiful, confident, and has it all! That’s why she’s revolutionary — earning the nickname “Queen Bey” along the way.
