California, US (BBN)-The Queen honors The King- of pop, that is.
During Super Bowl 50, Beyonce subtly paid homage to Michael Jackson's Super Bowl XXVII performance by echoing his leather and gold halftime outfit, reports, Mashable.
Bey also sported a military-inspired jacket, made by Dsquared2, with details almost identical to those Jackson donned in 1993.
Beyonce's Dsquared2 leather jacket was a fitting tribute to the pop legend.
Especially considering the entire halftime show was a call back to legendary performances from the past five decades.
Dsquared2 designers, Dean and Dan Caten tell Hollywood Life, "We love Beyonce and wanted to create something where she resembles a warrior leading her female posse who fall into formation and take Super Bowl 50 at half-time!”
But unlike Jackson's outfit, Bey's also included over 100 carats of diamond jewelry, including whimsical Lorraine Schwartz 18-carat gold football studs.
Compare their outfits and equally fierce performances, below.
