AceShowbiz - Beyonce Knowles looked radiant when she hit the red carpet of the 2016 CFDA Fashion Awards in NYC with husband Jay-Z and daughter Blue Ivy. However, there's one thing that might ruin her mood, and it's because the rapper's alleged mistress Rachel Roy also attended the event taking place at the Hammerstein Ballroom.
It marked the first time that the 42-year-old designer was under the same roof with the "Formation" singer since the latter released her album "Lemonade". Rachel arrived first wearing an off-the-shoulder red dress which she teamed with big round earrings.
Meanwhile, Beyonce and Jay-Z arrived an hour late to the venue. The couple tried to avoid press attention, so they showed up after the red carpet had closed. Though so, they still posed for some pictures on the red carpet. The 34-year-old diva wore a striped black-and-white blazer with matching pants complete with a black wide hat, while the 46-year-old rapper donned a black suit with a black bow tie. As for the 4-year-old girl, she looked adorable in a midi black dress underneath a white blazer.
During the ceremony, the "Sandcastles" singer received the prestigious award by Diane von Furstenberg. Beyonce dedicated the award to her mother, her grandmother and her uncle, who helped her design her outfits in the past.
"Thank you for showing me that having a presence is far more than the clothes you wear and your physical beauty. Thank you for showing me to never take no for an answer, thank you for showing how to take risks, work hard and live life on my own terms. I want to say thank you," Beyonce said during her acceptance speech.
"We have an opportunity to contribute to a society where any girl can look at a billboard or magazine cover and see her own reflection. Soul has no colour, no shape, no form," she added. "Just like all your work it goes so far beyond what the eyes can see. You have the power to change perception, to inspire and empower, to show people how to embrace their complications and flaws and see the true beauty that's inside all of us."
In "Lemonade", Beyonce hinted that her husband once cheated on her. In her song called "Sorry", Beyonce referred to the woman Jay-Z allegedly had an affair with as "Becky with the good hair," and fans were quick to speculate that Becky was Rachel.
