Today is Labor Day, but for the millions of Beyonce fans it’s also BeyDay — the 36th birthday of their favorite pop star. To commemorate it, celebs and members of Beyonce’s family dressed up to recreate one of her most iconic looks from the music video for “Formation.”
In the video, Beyonce sports long braids and a wide-brimmed black hat that covers the top-half of her face. On Monday, that look was adopted by Beyonce’s mother, Tina Knowles Lawson, as well as stars like tennis legend Serena Williams and former First Lady Michelle Obama.
