Beyoncé posted a pic of herself this week that has the Beyhive convinced she’s expecting twin boys, and their reasoning is Easter egg-based.
It all started Tuesday when the singer Instagrammed a collage of herself dressed up for a night out. Nothing too crazy there, right? Celebs show us photos of their outfits all the time! In this particular pic, Knowles is wearing a shimmery black dress with some thigh-high boots and a choker.
But if you get out your magnifying glasses, you might also notice that she’s wearing big silver earrings. See them? They’re circular with a geometric zig-zag pattern in the middle. It turns out that Knowles has worn them publicly one time before, and it was in her music video for “If I Were a Boy.” Get it? Boy.
Fans on Twitter are revved up, convinced Knowles’ twins (which are due in May) will be boys:

Beyoncé has been known to make subtle tweaks onstage to reflect what’s happening in her personal life, and her fans never seem to miss a clue when it comes to deciphering her infrequent social media posts, but something tells us the world won’t hear anything official about the babies’ genders until Knowles is good and ready.
Not to mention: The song is called if I were a boy. It’s from a woman’s perspective. So technically by this logic they could just as easily be twin girls.
Guess the world will just have to wait and see what happens (like we weren’t going to anyway)!
