Beyoncé's recent appearance at the premiere of her Renaissance concert film has caused a stir on social media. While some praised her "shimmering" and "stunning" Versace gown and waist-length hair in "a Targaryen-worthy shade of ice blonde," others felt that she appeared white or lighter than she had in the past ¹. Some even went as far as to compare her to Kim Kardashian ¹.

However, a few fans came to Beyoncé's defense, with one explaining that "If you’ve ever seen Beyoncé in person you know she’s very pale and spray tans … this her natural color" ¹. Another added that "She is of Creole decent as well. Yall think everybody bleach. Use your common sense sometimes!" ¹.

Beyoncé's Renaissance concert film is set to have its global premiere on Friday, December 1 ¹. The movie's final pre-release trailer opens with Bey's six-year-old daughter Rumi Carter recording her mother and her grandfather Matthew Knowles backstage ¹.
