Laverne Cox and Beyoncé are the duo you have been waiting for! During the Orange Is The New Black star’s appearance on Access Hollywood, she casually revealed the jaw-dropping news that Queen Bey has asked her to work on a top secret project. While celebrating her Emmy nomination with the hosts, she also spoke on meeting her idol for the first time at the 2017 Grammy Awards.
“I thought the first time I would meet Beyoncé, I would totally start crying and freak out,” Cox shared. “And I swear to you, a sense of calm comes over you when you meet the queen.”
It is no secret that Laverne is a huge fan of Bey. I mean, who isn’t? In October 2016, the actress paid tribute to Knowles’ former girl group, Destiny’s Child, on Lip Sync Battle with a star-studded performance of “Lose My Breath”.
After, the Lemonade singer expressed her gratitude to Cox for “blessing this world with her slayage” by having flowers delivered to her on the set of her short-lived show, Doubt.
Although the details of the project are still under wraps, we can only expect something huge coming from these two show-stopping divas. Laverne did tease on her Instagram post more information would follow on Sept. 6. So buckle up Bey fans — big things are coming.
