In what is one of the weirdest news stories ever, people are trying to guess who bit Beyoncé IN THE FACE at a at Jay-Z concert after-party in December 2017.
Comedian and Girls Trip star Tiffany Haddish hinted at the story in an interview with Vulture back in January, when asked about how she got a selfie with Beyoncé, she said: ‘Okay, so what had happened was, something had went down with somebody at the party, right? I’m not at liberty to say what had went down at the party, but Beyoncé was just telling me to have a good time, and I was like, “No, I’m gonna end up fighting this bitch!” She was like, “No, have fun, Tiffany,” and I said, “I’m only going to have fun if you take a selfie with me.”’
Little did we know that this would turn out to be the start of beybite-gate.
In a recentGQ interview, Haddish let more of the story from the party slip; ‘There was this actress there, that's just, like, doing the mostest. She bit Beyoncé in the face… So Beyoncé stormed away went up to Jay-Z, and was like, “Jay! Come here! This bitch—“ and snatched him… And then Beyoncé and Jay-Z walked by me, and I tapped Beyoncé.’
So what did Haddish do? She seized the moment. ‘I'm going to beat somebody ass at your party. I just want to let you know that.' Haddish says she told Beyonce, who told her not to, and to have fun instead. Later on Beyonce reportedly told Tiffany; ‘That bitch is on drugs. She not even drunk. The bitch is on drugs. She not like that all the time. Just chill.’
Another piece of the story can be filled in from an interview Tiffany Haddish did with TV One’sUncensoredUncensored, where she said Beyoncé nearly had to have stern words with an actress who touched Jay-Z’s chest at the same party.

Circa See The Day, Lily Allen had convinced everyone that vintage prom dresses were cool. How? Who knows. Add in that Amy Winehouse had made the case for peep-toe heels and you can see how this artwork came to life.

I call this 'Attack of the Gok Wan styling school'. Those cinched belts and lingerie-inspired outfits may have been aiming for Dolce & Gabbana, but they landed closer to Lipsy.

In moments like this, I always feel sorry for Nicole as this is proof that until very recently make-up artists had no clue what do with red heads.
