It’s been over six years since Beyonce released 2016’s Lemonade, her most recent album. Since then, fans have been clamoring for new material from her, and while there’s no news of an LP just yet, it looks like something is going on: Last night, the profile pictures from Beyonce’s accounts on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook were removed, leaving a default profile picture icon in their place.
Naturally, this left fans wondering just what the heck is going on here. Making some sort of sweeping social media change has become an indication that something big is happening, so some fans believe (or at least hope) that new Beyonce music is on the way.
If Beyoncé drops an album tonight at midnight I’m unavailable for the rest of the month!

Elsewhere, there are those who aren’t that optimistic. Another theory that has been floated out there is that Beyonce’s social media activity has something to do with her Ivy Park clothing line.
It could also just mean nothing, as there’s a recent precedent for that: Last year, profile photos on Destiny’s Child social media accounts were changed, which had fans thinking the group was reuniting. What was actually going on, however, was just a routine refreshing of the group’s social media pages, as Mathew Knowles, Beyonce’s father and the group’s manager, noted a reunion was not in the works.
