When not paying homage to the likes of Josephine Baker, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, and more on stage Beyonce‘s also made quite the name over her career for saluting some of her favorite female idols by dressing as them for Halloween.
Turning heads last year when she recreated a number of looks from the catalogue of rap queen Lil Kim (click here to read more) and borrowed pop queen Janet Jackson‘s ‘Rhythm Nation’ look a few years before that (click here to read), this year Bey looked to the 90’s yet again to tribute another of its biggest figures: Toni Braxton.
Look inside for more:
Taking to Instagram, Bey posted:
The photos were inspired by images found aboard Braxton’s classic, self-titled debut album’s packaging. Released in 1993, the project features the hits ‘Another Sad Love Song,’ ‘Breathe Again,’ ‘You Mean the World To Me,’ ‘Seven Whole Days,’ and more.
Your thoughts?
SHE slayed this!!!
Sure did! ?? *Plays Slay Again*
Toni posted on her insta that she likes the album cover with Bey. I hope Bey does r&b music and a duet with Toni or Babyface.
?plays “Libra” that’s my Toni Braxton album for sure!! Beyoncé is stepping out!!
Janet.. Lil Kim.. Toni.!!! Beyonce’ is slaying HOMAGE to those that paved the way for her, those that she loves , respects and looks up to and I LOVE IT! You look gorgeous, Bey! You’re showing how a true Queen acts- with humility!
U know all about impersonations TROLLmane Trashmane Jawanna Mann. U have been impersonating my girl Jasmine on here over a year but u aint fooling nobody. Are u a model too with a bikini body like her or some thirsty t***** living vicariously through her fab life. I heard Jasmine blocked u on insta months ago. Hahahaha loser.
YOU ARE JASMIN YOUR F****** C***!
YOU’RE A MAN IMPERSONATING SEVERAL WOMAN AHAHAHAHAHA
SO LAUGHABLE AT MOST…
Look tall it’s TRASHMANE aka Fake JasMAN writing to me for the hundredth time frome one of his troll accounts named Felicia. I am all woman u vile thirty peasant. I am not a rabid t***** like u are dude!
BTW calling me Jasmine or thinking I am Jasmine is a compliment. She is an awesome person and wonderful human being unlike you SCUM!
“Phoni Braxton” Lol Hehe!!!
She doesn’t really write much of her music (over 40 other songwriters do), she’s smart with lip syncing and making people think she is singing throughout a show, she steals the Janet Jackson Pose & Serious Stare taunt, stole Amerie’s “1 Thing” sound, Whenever Kelly Rowland drops new music she ends up dropping to steal her moment, Stole Artist visuals & dance moves and many more.
I love this side of Bey!
IM HERE FOR IT!

HASHTAG: #PhoniBraxton
Lol all true, she even stole the “Phoni Braxton” name from Tisha Campbell, she called Pam that name on an episode of ‘Martin’ lol ?
But what is Tinashe doing, sweetness? Answer that!
Beyonce’s Crazy IN Love came out in 2003 and Amerie’s 1 Thing came out in 2005. Thus, Bey did NOT copy Amerie. Rich Harrison produced both tracks but they are really DC gogo music sound so neither are the originators of the sound u are mentioning on 1 Thing.
When she does stuff like this she makes me fall back in love with her. She’s truly a Queen. ❤️ I love she pays homage and respect to the women that came before her.
Same.
Love it
She is ALWAYS on point. I love her icon theme she goes for every year!

She should sign him to parkwood
QUEEN! take notes Nicki, honor those who paved the way!
Toni looked so much better tho…
Agree. It’s a cute effort though.
Lmao, you are miserably obsessed with this woman in a way that, at this point, can only be described as devotion. Embarrassing.
Right back atcha sweetie. Try not to tip over whenever you decide to pull your head out of this girl’s ass.
Yasssss!
She nailed this. I love it.
Lol how can you not love her ❤️
LMAO. Issa no from me. #PhoniBraxton.
Her halloween homages are among her best looks every year…period. Kudos to her team on Phoni Braxton!
Give the kudos to the team on the “Martin” show, thats where her team got phoni braxton from lol
Well she’s always been good at copying other people’s creative moves sooo…
#This Isn’t Surprising
Not as good as Nicki tho. Her whole career is literally a copy of one single artist. VERBATIM
and beyonce’s whole career is literally a copy of several artists VERBATIM, so whats your point
https://youtu.be/OyM9M9KilU0 Happy Halloween
This woman really knows how to pull on my heartstrings. I just love Bey!!! She’s really one of our last true treasures!
Super cute. That album and era was iconic!
Indeed! “And I can’t stop thinking about…” – Breathe Again
“Talkin kinda cocky like you had it going on.” -Toni Braxton. I was addicted to Toni’s first album. BabyFace and LA Reid producing collaborations was the ish back then.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ?
Oh ? my goddess.. you slay that .. from one queen to another ..stay gracious stay humble. Best revenge is in the paper .. all the crickets bragging but they can’t top Forbes list jajaja..how many times the queen did that ..
