Tennis icon Serena Williams and musician Zendaya have reacted to being featured in R&B diva Beyoncé’s new Lemonade visual album HBO premiere this weekend.
Both high-profile celebrities posted up their cameo shots on Instagram.
Along with Serena and Zendaya, Queen Bey also shared personal moments of her rap star husband Jay Z in “Lemonade.”
“Lemonade” was an ode to black women, and a deeply personal story at the same time. Beyonce shared home movies of her father, her wedding to rapper Jay Z, her pregnancy and daughter Blue Ivy’s birthday party. Beyonce also made a statement through the appearances of women holding photos of black men who have died. Among the women were the mothers of Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown, who held images of their sons. The chapter was marked “Resurrection.” (USA Today)
The R&B diva’s “Lemonade” special turned into a full-album release for Jay’s TIDAL streaming service after it premiered last night (April 23).
LEMONADE, Beyoncé’s sixth studio album and her second visual album, features 12 new songs and a corresponding short film. It is a conceptual project based on every woman’s journey of self-knowledge and healing. TIDAL will be the first and only platform globally to stream the full-length debut of Beyoncé’s LEMONADE, continuing to make TIDAL the premiere destination for fans who want to access to the world’s top artists and groundbreaking content.

Prior to Bey’s HBO “Lemonade” premiere, the movie network promoted it across social media and with billboards in New York City.
