Beyoncé Knowles dazzled in a chic gold outfit as she stepped out to support her mother, Miss Tina Knowles, who was honored at the Glamour’s Women of the Year Awards in New York City.

Fans noticed Beyoncé Knowles’s tears as her mother accepted her award at the ceremony held on the night of October 8, 2024. This depth of feeling was also evident in Miss Tina Knowles’s voice, during her acceptance speech.

Fans commented on how emotional the moment was but they also focused on Beyonce’s appearance. The singer looked radiant in a light-yellow top cinched at the waist with a matching belt, complemented by a gold slip skirt from Sergio Hudson’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection.

She completed her ensemble with light-yellow mesh gloves and gold platform heels. The “16 Carriages” crooner styled her signature white-blonde hair in a voluminous, wavy bob and adorned herself with embellished hoop earrings.

Her makeup featured gold eyeshadow and a glossy nude lip. Upon arriving at the event, Beyoncé Knowles draped a long fur coat over her outfit and carried a chic black and gold purse, finishing off her look with embellished gradient cat-eye sunglasses.

Her presence had fans buzzing over everything from her look to her heartful scenes. Some users found her new appearance unfamiliar, with one saying, “That was not her. Her double,” while another commented, “Clone real one is off.” One fan even questioned, “Is that really her 👀,” as discussions about her look spread across social media.

Others joked about her hairstyle, with one user teasing, “Sorry all I saw was a wig,” and another quipping, “Carol Channing called. She wants her wig back.” An observant user added, “She wants to be blonde so bad,” while a person with similar views concurred, “Blonde is wrong in her sometimes.”

However, not all fans were focused on her appearance. Some were captivated by Beyoncé’s emotional vulnerability during the event.

She appeared to wipe away tears from her face when Tina said, “My daughters have brought me such incredible joy and pride in my life far more than anything else. They are my crew, my tribe, my rocks, my ride or dies. They have been right there by my side at the lowest points of my life.”

Tina added, her voice breaking, “They have cheered me on at the highest points of my life, making me feel like I could conquer anything.” At that moment, someone in the audience shouted, “Yes, you can!” as the camera panned to Beyoncé, who still appeared to be wiping away her tears.

These were the touching and tearful moments fans were referring to when they commented, “I have a big problem seeing Beyoncé cry. I cried too 🥹🩷.” Another fan touched by her tears, said, “Nothing like a daughter’s love.”

More heartfelt comments showed fans giving their love and support to Kelly and Beyonce, chiming, “They are both absolute Queens ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” with one fan summing it up with admiration, “Gorgeous.”

In her speech, Beyonce and Solange Knowles’s mother, also shared, “I am asked most often what is the proudest moments you’ve had with your daughters and my answer is always the same. What I am most proud of is the human beings that they are. How they have managed to stay humble, grounded, generous, and kind, and how they manage to put it all into their art.”

Tina Knowles, who considers Kelly as her bonus daughter, reflected on her life by saying that she has been blessed to experience many things and pursue various careers. However, she emphasized that her most fulfilling role has always been that of a mother.

Tina also revealed, “I’ve had the privilege of raising and helping to raise four daughters. Two that were born to me and two that were a gift to me from God.”

Tina acknowledged her past as somewhat of a rebellious teen and young adult but shared that the day she became a mother, she committed to ensuring that motherhood was one thing she wouldn’t mess up.

Now, her daughters are successful artists and entrepreneurs, who applaud her for the good job she did. At the event, Beyoncé beamed as she posed for pictures with her mother and her longtime friend and former Destiny’s Child bandmate, Kelly.

Other people awarded alongside Tina are three mothers of prominent celebrities—Mandy Teefey, who is Selena Gomez’s mom, Billie Eilish and Finneas’s mom, Maggie Baird, and Donna Kelce, who is Travis and Jason Kelce’s mom.
