Beyoncé and Taylor Swift looked like best friends in the first image of them together at the premiere of Mrs Carter’s Renaissance tour film in London on Thursday.

The 42-year-old crooner and the 33-year-old blonde were seen smiling as they posed arm-in-arm in front of the poster for the movie.

Beyonce was stunning in a low-cut leotard with a black fitted coat while Taylor dazzled in a silver frock with a slit up the leg and high heels.

Taylor shared the photo to Instagram and Twitter on Friday with the cute caption: ‘Got invited to London by the Queen!’

She also was seen posing with her longtime friend Blake Lively.

This comes months after Beyonce attended the premiere for Taylor’s premiere for her Eras Tour movie in Los Angeles in October. The ladies seem to grow closer and closer over time as their careers continue to flourish.

Also at the premiere was their mutual pal Blake Lively.

For her big night, Beyoncé flashed the flesh in a glitzy black peekaboo dress with a long, glamorous train.

Taylor gave her a run for her money with a glittering silver sequined dress, while Blake, 36, showcased her stellar figure with some carefully designed cutouts.

Beneath the woman of the hour’s sparkly frock was a busty black bodysuit with a gold flower embroidered just below her abdomen.

Beyoncé was still rocking platinum blonde tresses — which she debuted over the weekend — styled into an elegant half up, half down look.

She oozed confidence posing for shutterbugs with her hands on her hips and her curvy legs crossed.

Beyoncé had on edgy black vinyl fingerless gloves and shiny silver drop earrings. As for her shoes, the A-lister stood on platform boots with laces.

Taylor, who has been holed up with boyfriend Travis Kelce in Kansas City, opted for old school Hollywood glamour in a glittering sequined Balmain gown.

Taylor’s dress displayed plenty of leg thanks to its epic, thigh-high slit while the star wore her blonde locks in soft waves and sported her signature feline flicks of liner and red lipstick.

She accessorized with glittering jewelry from Anito Ko and black platform heels by Giuseppe Zanotti.

The star is supporting her friend Beyoncé at the premiere after the Crazy In Love hitmaker attended her own The Eras Tour movie premiere in LA earlier this year — and she flew into the UK capital on her private jet.

Blake set temperatures soaring with her collar-free tweed Chanel jacket.

The style complemented Beyoncé’s black ensemble, but also stuck to the theme thanks to jagged silver sequin designs around the jacket’s hem.

The look was left partially open, and the Gossip Girl star didn’t wear a top underneath it, instead revealing a triangle of her toned midriff.

She showcased her trim legs in black Louboutins that strapped around her ankles, and she covered up with striking sheer black gloves.

Beyoncé was also accompanied by her stylish daughter Blue Ivy, 11, who joined in on the photo fun ahead of the screening.

Blue, who joined her mother on her Renaissance tour as a dancer, wore a one-shouldered black gown with a structured shoulders and futuristic shades.

Other attendees included Beyoncé’s Destiny’s Child bandmate Michelle Williams and Will.i.am.

Also at the premiere was their mutual pal Blake Lively in all black with silver accents

BAYLOR’S FRIENDSHIP

By Chloe Louise

No one knew it then, but the night of the 2009 VMAs was the foundation of a friendship that blossomed into one of the world’s most iconic duos.

It was the first time the two had shared the same headlines, and it was because of Kanye’s humiliating behaviour.

Taylor, who was 20 at the time, and Beyoncé were both nominated for Best Female Video for ‘You Belong With Me’ and ‘Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)’.

But after Taylor was announced as the winner, Kanye jumped on stage and took the singing star’s mic while giving her acceptance speech.

He said: ‘Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you. I’mma let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!’

His rude comments were met with gasps from the audience, who rightly booed the rapper, and a mortifying look from Beyoncé.

When she was later awarded her own award, she did the noble thing and called Swifty back up to finish her speech.

The two icons have supported each other since, and the night is now famously known for the start of their strong bond.

2014 – Beyonce is a guest of honour at Taylor’s 25th Birthday bash

Five years later, the star was on birthday party terms with the world’s most famous couple, Beyoncé and Jay-Z

And five years later, the star was on birthday party terms with the world’s most famous couple, Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

The power couple danced the night away at her home in New York City as Taylor celebrated her 25th with a giant pizza party.

The guest list read like a who’s who of the music industry as Justin Timberlake, Sam Smith and Selena Gomez all stepped out for the event.

Taylor and the two lovebirds were pictured throughout the night as they posed for comic pictures dressed in Santa hats and glitter glasses.

Rumour has it that the stars partied until 5am, so it is safe to say they have shared a hangover or two in their time.

At the time, the couple’s attendance was the centre of controversy as they were not seen at Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s wedding, which was held the same year.

A few days after the birthday celebrations, the two women attended Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience Tour at the Barclays Center.

Fans got quite a treat as Justin was joined on stage for a surprise performance with Jay Z.

Taylor spun around to laugh with Beyoncé as they sang along and danced together to Holy Grail from the VIP section.

2015 – Taylor and Beyonce share the spotlight at the BRIT Awards

Sharing the spotlight again, Queen B and Swiftie were both nominated for the International Female Solo Artist award at the 2015 Brit Awards

Sharing the spotlight again, Queen B and Swiftie were both nominated for the International Female Solo Artist award at the 2015 Brit Awards.

Thankfully, this award ceremony did not have any wild disturbances as Taylor managed to bag the award following the release of her fifth album 1989, which sold more copies in its opening week than any other album in the past 12 years.

Ahead of the award ceremony, Taylor couldn’t help but gush over the Soldie’ singer while speaking with KissFMUK.

‘It’s like, normal for everyone to love Beyoncé, but I love her more than that amount, like more than the normal amount,’ Swift said, per E! News.

‘I try really hard not to let it get creepy,’ she joked. ‘I just really like, channel it into a joyous admiration and appreciation.’

She continued, ‘I’m nominated usually against lots of my friends, so you have to — just for the sake of humanity and for the sake of having a good time — legitimately be happy for other people.’

‘The only way that I’ll be upset is if we don’t get to see Beyoncé,’ she added. ‘I won’t be upset because I didn’t win. I’ll just be like, ‘I wish that we could see her all the time.”

While backstage at the Staples Center, where the music awards show was held, Taylor extended a hand to vocal powerhouse Beyoncé, who reached right back.

The pair were pictured sharing a hug after Taylor accepted her gong for Album Of The Year.

During her acceptance speech, Taylor noted that she is the only woman in history to have won Album Of The Year twice in a thinly veiled attack against Kanye as he the week before claimed he is the reason why she is famous.

‘As the first woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame,’ Taylor said as she accepted her award, clearly referencing the rapper’s comments.

‘But if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you are going,’ she added. ‘You will look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment.’

2021 – Beyonce and Taylor wow at The Grammy Awards

While Beyonce and Taylor were both nominated at the 2023 Grammy Awards, they did not pose for any pictures together

At this point, Beyhives and Swifties are expecting nothing but love and empowerment at the Grammy Awards, as they both have dominated the ceremonies over the last decade.

But to some people’s disappointment, the two singing sensations didn’t pose for any pictures together.

The lack of photos did not shine a light on any love lost, as Taylor was later seen enthusiastically cheering for Beyonce when she made history as the most-awarded female artist in Grammy history.

This was a huge night to remember for the two of them as Taylor also made history when she became the first woman to win the album of the year three times after she released Folklore.

Bey received four honours — Best R&B Performance for Black Parade, Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance for Savage with Megan Thee Stallion, and Best Music Video for Brown Skin Girl — during the main event and the pre-telecast ceremony, which took her total to 28 over the years, surpassing the record previously held by Alison Krauss, with 27 wins.

In a video, she said, ‘The fact that you have paved the road that every female artist is walking down now.

‘The fact that you’ve done so with such kindness and such grace.’ She then added, ‘To say I admire you — there’s just not a word for it.’

The two were filmed hugging passionately before they had a quick catchup before the Love On Top star made her way to her table.

Adding nine more awards to her collection, Beyoncé was named the most nominated artist in 2023, as she has taken home a total of 88 Grammys in her time.

Taylor caused a total fan frenzy as she shut down The Grove shopping center in Los Angeles to host an epic premiere for her highly-anticipated Eras Tour concert film.

The 12-time Grammy winner ‘handpicked’ 2,200 of her biggest ‘Swifties’ to get a first look at the concert footage on the big screen.

And if one superstar weren’t enough, Beyonce showed out in support of Swift, who she posed for photos with after the screening.

It was a surprise appearance that moved the Eras star so much that she later shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram.

Alongside a boomerang video that showed her and Beyoncé inside the movie theater, she penned: ‘ I’m so glad I’ll never know what my life would’ve been like without @beyonce’s influence.’

‘The way she’s taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit.

‘Her resilience and versatility,’ she added.

‘She’s been a guiding light throughout my career, and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairytale.’

2023 – Taylor joins Beyonce at her Renaissance premiere

On Thursday, Taylor put on a dazzling display in a silver gown as she attended the premiere of Beyonce’s Renaissance tour movie

Like all good friends, Taylor later returned the favour.

In a whirlwind 12-hour visit to attend Beyoncé’s Renaissance premiere, the Cardigan singer made a surprise appearance in London to celebrate her friend’s latest release.

The singer dazzled as she hit the red carpet, opting for old-school Hollywood glamour in a glittering sequined Balmain gown, while Beyonce flashed her underwear in a very risque gown.

After the event, snaps taken at London’s Stansted Airport showed Taylor being taken to the plane under an umbrella and surrounded by a three-car security convoy.

A source close to Taylor told DailyMail.com: ‘Taylor and Beyonce have been chatting a lot since Beyonce surprised her at her Eras film premiere.

‘They would seem like unlikely friends, but the two of them truly get each other. In a world of copycats and wannabes, both are at the top of their game.

‘Beyoncé cemented such a special place in Taylor’s heart in 2009 when she shut Kanye down. They both know now that karma took care of Kanye exactly as they believed it would.

‘At the time, Taylor was not the powerhouse she is today. It was just so showing of who Beyoncé really is and ever since that moment the two of them have celebrated each other’s successes. Their music is very different. Their fans are very different, and their lives are so different.

‘But one thing that they can both relate to is that they are a master of their craft. There is nothing that Taylor would not do for Beyoncé, and she will go to bat form this woman until the day she dies.’
