And the presentation was further elevated by a lengthy, square-shaped French manicure that was pink on one hand and green on the other.

The release of Beyoncé’s seventh studio album Renaissance has not been without its share of controversy.

First, the Texas-raised pop star was confronted by Kelis for not letting her know that her Pharrell-assisted track Energy sampled one of her hit songs.

Beyoncé quietly removed the sample after the Milkshake hitmaker voiced her disapproval online.

It came after the album was leaked online, two days before its officially scheduled release date.  

Then the mom-of-three swapped out what some complained was an ableist term from one of her music tracks after backlash.

After news of the lyric removal broke, Monica Lewinsky indirectly asked the entertainer to remove an old lyric from her song Partition.

The 2013 lyric referenced Lewinsky’s late 90s scandal with then-president Bill Clinton.
