The exhibit will feature Beyoncé’s Gareth Pugh gold dress from the “Run the World (Girls)” video, the black leotard and Lorraine Schwartz titanium glove from the “Single Ladies” video, and J Brand Denim shorts and red Stuart Weitzman pumps from the “Crazy
In Love” video.
Other items include Beyoncé’s mermaid gown from the 2012 Met Gala, the rhinestone-covered top from the Dangerously in Lovealbum cover, and leather and lace bodysuit, skirt, and jacket from the 2013 Super Bowl Halftime Show. “We felt that [Beyoncé] really needed to take her rightful place alongside Aretha Franklin and the Supremes and Janis Joplin,” said Rock Hall curator Meredith Rutledge-Borger. “Rock and roll has an intergenerational appeal and we want to make sure we’re hitting all the right notesand keeping upwith what’s happening today and what’s legendary today.”
According to the AP, the 32-year-old singer will be eligible for induction into the Hall of Fame as a member of Destiny’s Child in 2022 and as a solo artist in 2027. The exhibit opens Tuesday, July 22, in the Ahmet Ertegun MainExhibit Hall in Cleveland, Ohio.
