This article originally appeared on People.Beyoncé has yet to reveal the sex of her twins with husband Jay Z, but the Beyhive is buzzing about the possibility that she’s expecting boys.
The mother-to-be released glamorous baby bump photos on her website Monday, and many fans were quick to notice something very interesting about her accessories. It wasn’t her $4,900 embellished Gucci bag or her thigh-high velvet black boots or her diamond-encrusted honeycomb choker that caught people’s attention.. Instead, all eyes were on her oval earrings.
After taking a closer look, Beyhive members noted they were the same earrings she wore in her 2008 music video for “If I Were A Boy,” leading many to speculate Bey was once again trying to tell us something.

While it may be a small fashion detail, her history of subtle nods is enough evidence to back up this fan theory.
Queen Bey surprised everyone with the release of Lemonade last April, but she had seemingly dropped clues about the album — and no one caught on. She was constantly posting three consecutive lemon-related photos (exhibits A, B and C) before debuting the project on Tidal.
And the same goes with the announcement of her twins. Blue Ivy‘s mom shared pictures (here and here) of what appeared to be a peace sign, but later did many assume that it was a tell-tale sign.
Beyoncé first made the baby announcement on Feb. 1 with the photo of her in lingerie kneeling in front of an overflowing wreath of flowers, rubbing her baby belly. And internet sleuths found some hidden clues that might’ve revealed the sex of her two upcoming bundles of joy.
They pointed to the small pink bow on her scalloped embroidered tulle Agent Provocateur bra — which could indicate that one of Bey’s babies is a girl — and how her powder blue Dauphine panty bottoms by Liviara — which could suggest that the other baby is a boy.
