In her first public performance since announcing she
is pregnant with twins, Beyoncé donned a gold sequin gown and headpiece and a
gold bikini. But far from simply making a fashion statement Queen Bey was
actually paying homage to an indigenous religious icon, Oshun – a Yoruba deity
from West Africa for whom twins and motherhood are particularly crucial. Oshun
– called Osun in the Yoruba language – is the goddess of beauty, prosperity,
love, order, fertility and motherhood and is one of the most venerated deities
of the religion.
