Beyonce sports a bold MULLET as she displays her backside in edgy shoot for CR Fashion Book – as fans speculate hairstyle is kicking off her ‘rock era’

Beyoncé wowed as she paid tribute to legendary hairstyles in an unforgettable cover shoot for CR Fashion Book.

The iconic fashion publication dropped Beyonce’s edgy shoot from their 24th issue on Friday, along with an interview with Queen Bey and her mother Tina Knowles, 70.

Together, the mother-daughter duo has launched the brand new hair care line Cécred.

The shoot honored ‘iconic hairstyles throughout history’ and saw Beyonce, 42, rocking a range of new hairstyles, including a daring mullet.

When the photo of Beyoncé rocking the statement hairstyle first surfaced Thursday, many fans wondered if the mullet was Beyonce’s way of introducing her next chapter in music: rock.

“Rockyonce!” one fan commented. “The rock era is coming,” wrote another.

“I love that she’s giving us future album looks with the current album promo. Renaissance was very cowboyish and now she’s referencing act III (rock) for the country album,” another posted. It is unclear whether fans were aware of the theme of the shoot at the time.

In the interview, conducted by Carine Roitfeld, founder of CR Fashion Book, Beyonce and her mother discussed a range of topics – from hair disasters to her new hair venture.

The last time Beyonce appeared on the cover of CR Fashion Book was 10 years ago – and her life has evolved dramatically since then.

“So many things have changed in the last 10 years,” she said. ‘I was a new mother then and now my baby is twelve years old and bigger than me. I am also a proud mother of my Gemini twins, who will soon be turning seven.

‘I can’t believe my self-titled album came out in 2013! I have now released Lemonade and RENAISSANCE. My business has grown and I am so proud of the new hair care brand Cécred that I just launched. I feel like I’ve evolved as a filmmaker and producer, and I’m at a place in my life where I can work at my own pace and only do things I truly believe in. But I have to admit, I still have trouble balancing all the hats I wear,” she said.

While Beyonce is now launching her own hair care line, she’s not immune to hair disaster.

She described damaging her hair after bleaching it for the 2001 Grammys with a product intended for eyebrows.

“One of my hair nightmares was at the 2001 Grammys. It was the year Destiny’s Child won our first Grammy. I took bleach that was made for eyebrow bleaching and applied it to the front of my hair because I was too impatient to wait for the color.

‘It made my hair look really platinum, but two weeks later the front of my hair broke off really bad. I’ve done crazy things to my hair, but you can’t live with regrets. Being safe is boring. We all have those hair moments that are completely unattractive at some point in our lives.”

Many fans wondered if the mullet look was her way of ushering in her new “rock era.”

She also talked about working with her mother on the new hairline and called it an “honor” to have her on her “team for life.”

“My mother and I want the same things; be authentic, work hard, be innovative and respect each other’s creativity. Working closely with my mother, I know every day that no matter how many times I fall, there is someone who will help me get up.”

Despite now being a mother of three, Beyonce says her mother will still talk to her like a teenager occasionally, but that’s just part of being on a mother-daughter team.

‘Building my hair business took some time to get it right and it was the best feeling knowing I could bounce everything off her and she would give an honest answer even if I didn’t ask to hear it , haha. Working with family also has its moments. Sometimes we’re in a big meeting and she interrupts me and starts talking to me like I’m a teenager.

“It’s a mother thing; Wherever I am or whoever I talk to, I am her daughter. I cherish the time I get to spend with my mother. The special bond between mother and daughter is one of the most sacred and I know that I am fortunate and blessed to have the relationship that I have with my mother. What an honor to have her on my team for life.’

As for Cecred, their new hair care line, it’s a dream come true for Beyonce.

Talking about creating the brand, she said: “It has always been a dream of mine to create high-end, luxury products. I wanted to combine the best scientific developments with real rituals from different heritages. I am interested in solving real problems.

‘I want to break myths and stereotypes when it comes to our hair. Great quality is great quality, regardless of who is behind it. It was important to me to find a team of diverse women from different backgrounds who were masterfully the best in their field to build Cécred with me.

‘We all want healthy hair and that starts with a clean scalp, strength, moisture and prioritizing your health. The packaging is also very special. We designed them all to look like sculptures. And because it wanted to have a texture like stone, it was something so innovative, clean and minimal.”

Fans speculated on Instagram about the meaning of Beyoncé’s mullet

Beyonce also opened up about her incredible shoot, which saw her deliver a series of sharp looks.

In the photos, Beyonce is seen in a range of fashionable ensembles, from a mesh top paired with double denim to a sexy corset top that showed off her backside.

During the shoot, the Crazy In Love singer rocked a series of iconic hairstyles seen throughout history.

Speaking about the message she hoped to convey with her shoot, she said: ‘Every era is defined by sound and sight. There is always music, fashion and trends that make an era unforgettable.

“Growing up, I was inspired by my favorite music icons. Those styles told us so much about the women who wore them. I can literally hear the music just by looking at the hairstyles. In the ’90s I always wanted an asymmetrical cut, but my mother wouldn’t let me. So I’m having the time of my life during this shoot. That’s what we really wanted to channel in this shoot: a symphony of hairstyles inspired by iconic hair throughout history.”

Her mother Tina also appears in the shoot in an outfit that pays tribute to the ’70s. Tina looks fantastic in a chic belted ensemble, paired with leather gloves and a perfect hairdo.

Speaking of the best part of that decade, Tina said, “The 70s were my hot girl era for fashion and hairstyles. I rocked the biggest afro you could have. It was every color in the book. The sky was the limit when it came to fashion. You could go there, it was really wild.

“Back then I went to Sessions where all these groups like The Isley Brothers and The Chi-Lites came to town on Friday nights and performed in Galveston, Texas. I would go with my sister and my cousin Johnny and we would have a ball. I just turned seventy and the seventies remind me of pure freedom. ‘
