LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Blake Lively is glad to see the pop icons are not fighting over stardom!
In her social media post on Saturday, December 2, the 'A Simple Favor' star referenced Beyonce and her good friend Taylor Swift.
Blake's appreciation post for Taylor and Beyonce
Blake started by saying, “When I grew up, women were always pit against one another. It took me until adulthood to see that the instinct for women to lift each other up to their highest potential is the norm not the exception.” .
“Most of my best friends are women who would’ve been packaged to me as threats or competition. It’s our job to show younger generations the power in aligning rather than dividing. All this to say, @beyonce and @taylorswift neither of you have to be threatened by my pop stardom. There’s space for us all,” she continued.
The 36-year-old wrapped up by saying, "Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce. In theaters now… And even better than you can imagine. ✨👽✨"
Her post coincides with the ongoing trend of both pop music icons embarking on record-breaking world tours.
Taylor and Beyonce's respect for each other
In October, Beyonce graced the premiere of the Eras Tour concert film in Los Angeles.
Taylor quickly expressed her appreciation for Queen Bey on Instagram. She wrote, "I’m so glad I’ll never know what my life would’ve been like without @beyonce‘s influence," alongside a boomerang video of her and Beyoncé inside the movie theater.
"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’s been a guiding light throughout my career, and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairytale. 😇🙏🥹," added the Grammy winner.
Blake has been a supportive friend amid the buzz surrounding Taylor and Kelce's romance.
The two friends were recently captured on camera making gestures toward the NFL star, creating an immediate viral sensation, as reported by People.
The viral video captured Swift playfully throwing punches after telling Lively, "look at him," seemingly alluding to Kelce's athleticism. In response, the star of 'The Age of Adaline' was seen breaking into laughter.
"'look at him' I see you, Taylor Swift," a fan wrote alongside a screenshot of two lines from Swift's song 'Gorgeous' that read, "You should take it as a compliment / That I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk."
