It’s gorgeous.” She continues, “This was meant to be an affirmation of that. That’s the intent of it, to be an affirmation.”

“It was so important to me to represent all different shades of brown,” Beyoncé said about the music video on Good Morning America Monday. “And I wanted every character to be shot in a regal light.
