Beyoncé recently earned nominations for her role with Disney’s ‘The Lion King’

Beyoncé truly never has a day off. The artist recently earned a Grammy nomination for her work with Disney’s photo-real adaptation of The Lion King. She created her own album, inspired by the story of the movie, entitled The Lion King: The Gift. The artist is also a full-time mother of three, often posting pictures with her oldest daughter, Blue Ivy.

“It might seem like her career would take up all her time, but it’s quite the opposite. Her career is always second and her kids are her first priority,” a source told PEOPLE Magazine, regarding Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and her family. “She is a fantastic mom and very involved.”

Even though she keeps herself busy, this diva still makes time for a New Year’s Eve party with some other celebrities. Beyoncé rung in the new year with some other A-list celebrities, at a New Year’s Eve party with “Hot Girl Summer” artist, Megan Thee Stallion.

She may be the artist behind songs like “Hot Girl Summer,” but Megan Thee Stallion is also a friend of Beyoncé Knowles-Carter. The rapper posted two pictures with Beyoncé and Blue Ivy, captioning it, “Happy 2020.” Because Megan Thee Stallion and Beyoncé have yet to collaborate on music, It’s unclear how these two celebrities met.

Celebrating the start of a new decade, Beyoncé posted her annual ”Bey-cap” video to Instagram, featuring pictures and video clips of herself and her children, Blue Ivy and twins Rumi and Sir Carter.

Fans of both artists took to social media, sharing their love for Megan Thee Stallion, Beyoncé, and Blue Ivy

Once Megan Thee Stallion posted her picture with Beyoncé and Blue Ivy, some fans shared their love on social media. The photo, itself, earned over two million likes on Instagram and Megan Thee Stallion grabbed a considerable amount of followers.

“Let’s really talk about this, Beyoncé letting Megan, not only around Blue [Ivy Carter,] but to post a photo, too- just goes to show how much Megan is good vibes,” one Twitter user said.

“Woke up and the first things I see on Twitter is a Megan/Beyoncé photo and WandaVision got pushed to this year, [thank you,] 2020,” wrote another Twitter user. Other fans speculated that because of this picture, (and the duo’s friendship,) a collaboration could be in the works.

“First, Megan got a collab with Nicki. And now I feel like she’s gonna get one with Beyoncé,” wrote one Twitter user.

Music by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, including the album, The Lion King: The Gift, is available on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, and most major streaming platforms. Music by Megan Thee Stallion is also available on most music platforms.
