Beyonce turned heads as she hit up a beach in the swanky French resort town of Cannes back in 2014. Soaking up the sun with husband Jay-Z and spending time with her family that summer, the queen of R&B sizzled in a tiny snakeskin bikini and elaborate sarong, quickly making headlines for her display as she flaunted her sizzling figure. Squeezing her curves into an impossibly tight swimsuit as she wore a loud printed skirt and chic bangle jewelry, Bey nailed her summer style, although some fans did wonder if her swimwear was even comfortable. The photos, published by The Daily Mail, were also shared by Elle on X, and they're still live.

Wearing her long sarong low-slung as she peeped hints of her matching bottoms, Beyonce added plenty of flair from a mix of bright turquoise fading into green here, with more animal prints jazzing things up. With snaking body chains discreetly accentuating both her chest and her toned tummy, the former Destiny's Child member completed her look with reflective metallic shades and tons of gold jewelry, plus a purse slung over her shoulder.

Bikini Looks 'Uncomfortably Small'

Fans didn't take long to comment. "Ouch, those bikini tops look uncomfortably small," one said, gaining over 100 likes. Others wondered if the Grammy winner might be expecting. "She's either gaining weight or she's pregnant...," another wrote, with a third saying: "She keeps hiding her stomach. I don't think she is self-conscious, she appears to be very confident. Maybe she's expecting again?"

At the time, Beyonce was already a mother to her eldest daughter Blue Ivy. She and Jay-Z welcomed twins Rumi and Sir in 2017.

Killing It In Her Country Era

2024 has seen Beyonce reinvent herself as a country music face and against all odds. In March, she released her Act II: Cowboy Carter album, one famed for its "TEXAS HOLD 'EM" track, plus superstar collaborators including singers Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus.

"This album has been over five years in the making. It was born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed…and it was very clear that I wasn’t. But, because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of Country music and studied our rich musical archive," Beyonce wrote on Instagram to mark the EP's release.
