Who Wore It Better? Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj Come Through Dripping In Similar Versace Prints

Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Nicki Minaj are having a serious twinning moment! The 38-year-old singer and the 37-year-old rapper both showed up and showed out in floral prints from the Spring 2020 Versace collection. Both ladies wore their designs in different styles and each paired their outfits with hot pink stilettos. They both bodied their outfits, but who wore it best?

Beyoncé’s look came straight off the Versace runway. The Houston native’s form-fitting dress hugged her curves in all the right places. She completed her attire with matching tights, pink strappy sandals and a CCCXXXIII ostrich clutch. Her hair was curled to perfection and swooped to one side. Beyoncé debuted her look in February while on vacation in Miami for Shakira’s birthday.

Nicki graced the internet in her outfit on July 30. Sitting by a pool somewhere in Trinidad, the soon-to-be mother of one donned floral print leggings with a matching jacket over a pink bandeu top. True to form, Nicki rocked a vibrant pink wig. She accessorized her outfit with sunglasses, a Versace clutch, and pink pumps. The “Anaconda” artist revealed in her caption that she was pregnant at the time her photo was taken.

“While I was in Trinidad earlier this year, I had the worst morning sickness of all time. Didn’t know morning sickness could last all day either😩 But nevertheless, this is one of the pics I took b4 you could see my lil baby bump.🥳🙏,” she wrote.

Fans complimented Beyoncé and Nicki equally for their looks.

“Nicki ate this while pregnant 😍😍.”

“Beyoncé was on it honey 💕.”

“Nicki gave exactly what it was supposed to give!💖”

“Now y’all know B killin all of em🗣.”

“Onika got this one boo😍😍😍.”

“It’s the Beyoncé for me!😍”

“Nick for the win, but Bey looks 🔥 too.”

“BEYONCÉ AS USUAL 🔥.”

Considering they both looked gorgeous, it seemed hard for fans to declare a winner.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
