Photos: Beyonce celebrates twins at African-themed baby shower
It's time to celebrate the beybeys! And when you're Beyonce, your baby shower is something special.
On May 20, friends and family gathered to honor the music star, who's expecting twins with husband Jay Z, at a private estate in Beverly Hills.
The next day, Beyonce shared a few photos on Instagram -- one shows her growing belly on full display and while another reveals her enjoying the festivities with husband Jay Z.
A henna tattoo is visible in both snapshots.
Beyonce's mother, Tina Lawson, also shared videos from the party on Instagram.
Tina and celebrity guests including an expectant Serena Williams, La La Anthony, jeweler Lorraine Schwartz and Destiny's Child stars Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams
shouted out "Happy Carter push party!" in one clip that gives fans a
peek at the elaborate décor, which featured animal prints as well as
colorful African-inspired textiles and furniture.
"All theses beautiful ladies at The Carter Push party! ❤️❤️," Tina captioned the clip.
Giant gold foil balloons spelled out "Carter
Party" at the entrance to the bash. E! News reports that balloons also spelled out the word "Twinning."
"The party was very family friendly with [Beyonce and Jay Z's
daughter] Blue Ivy [Carter] and lots of her friends running around the
grounds of the estate," an insider told E! News. "There was a huge tent
erected on the property where most of the shower took place. The decor
was African-themed and very colorful with lounge seating areas, floor
pillows and rugs on the floor."
The insider added, "The tables had lanterns, wooden elephants and
pink and white roses for centerpieces. There was also a henna tattoo
artist and African dancers and drummers walking around. A huge soul food
buffet was served for a late lunch."
Lifeguards were on hand to keep an eye on kids in the pool, and there was a lemonade bar (natch!), reports E!
Tina also shared a photo of herself with La La, captioning it, "This woman gets more beautiful every time i see her!!
Hotttness personified!!! @lala ❤️❤️."
Michelle posted a photo of herself wearing her party gear --
a tall head wrap and zigzag-patterned caftan -- on Instagram on May 20.
Michelle and Kelly, who brought son Titan to the bash, gave fans another look at their colorful ensembles as they left.
It was a big day for celebrity showers: Instagram posts reveal that "The Hills" alum Lauren Conrad celebrated her own baby shower the same day, and former "Jersey Shore" star Deena Cortese, who got engaged in November 2016, was feted with a bridal shower.
