Jay Z and Beyoncé are not only the biggest couple in music right now, but they're winning the art world too. For New York's Halloween parade last night, the pair showed up dressed as Jean-Michel Basquiat and Frida Kahlo. Jay wore a wild wig to mimic Basquiat's iconic hairstyle, and Bey rocked a floral dress and flowers in her hair. Blue Ivy also wore a Basquiat costume with a jacket painted in the artist's iconic style. Previously, Beyoncé dressed as Janet Jackson, and Blue Ivy wore a Michael Jackson costume.
Jay Z has long been a fan of Basquiat. Last year, he dropped $4.5 million on a Basquiat painting called Empire that depicts New York, and he also owns a piece by Swizz Beatz featuring an iconic photo of the late artist painted on a Mercedes-Benz hood.
Both Jay Z and Beyoncé have been dedicating time to art lately. During their trip to Europe, the couple toured the Louvre, where they took a selfie in front of the Mona Lisa that blew up the Internet. In London, they visited the city's Arts Club, the Frieze art fair, and various galleries with artist Anish Kapoor. It seems like Halloween was just another opportunity for the pair to show off their love of art.
