There are two new Beyoncé t-shirts that recently went up on the diva's official online store, featuring simplified depictions of her songs 'Blow' and 'Drunk in Love.' There are already quite a few sweatshirts in Bey's store that feature bold text across their fronts, but these new tees have emojis on the sleeves for just a little something extra.
The shirts that read "Blow" and "Surfboard" are actually in reference to lyrics that suggest rather adult activities, however, the emotions—cherries and a tiny Beyoncé riding a surfboard—are quite playful and help to counter the suggestive nature of it all, once again proving the brilliance of Queen Bey. The Beyoncé tees retail for $40 each, promising that you will fall absolutely drunk in love with them.
