PinkPantheress Reveals That Beyoncé Is the Inspiration Behind Her Makeup Routine

With Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé opening in just three days on Dec. 1, is it any wonder why Queen Bey is on PinkPantheress‘ mind? In a new beauty secrets video with Vogue, the “Mosquito” singer spilled all the details on her Beyoncé-inspired makeup routine and her upcoming gig as an opening act on Olivia Rodrigo‘s Guts World Tour.

“Header, I am not comparing myself to who I’m about to mention, nor am I saying I’m anything close,” she began. “But I do look at Beyoncé for inspiration when it comes to makeup. I’m not gonna lie, those early 2000s looks that she was serving with the very minimal makeup, the nice, strong eyebrows … she had a thin brow too, I loved it!” In the video, PinkPantheress pokes fun at her own eyebrows, “or what’s left of them,” as she quips.

In her Vogue video, PinkPantheress also teased big plans for 2024, which include opening for Olivia Rodrigo on the “Vampire” singer’s forthcoming world tour for her Billboard 200-topping sophomore studio album of the same name. “For anyone that’s seeing Olivia Rodrigo live next year, I am the opener, so you’re gonna see me first and then her,” she said. “You don’t need to arrive for me if you don’t want, but I would greatly appreciate it, thank you very much!”

While applying some pink blush, the “Capable of Love” singer also found time to shoutout “Angel,” her contribution to the Grammy-nominated Barbie soundtrack, saying, “It’s giving Barbie! Speaking of Barbie, stream ‘Angel’ by me. If anyone hasn’t heard it, it’s got an Irish jig in it!”

PinkPantheress is set to join Chappell Roan, The Breeders and Remi Wolf as Rodrigo’s rotation of opening acts. She will open 11 shows across the U.S. and Canada beginning on July 19 in Philadelphia and ending on Aug. 9 in Vancouver.

2023 has been a breakout year for PinkPantheress. She scored both the highest charting Hot 100 hit (“Boy’s A Liar, Pt. 2,” No. 3) and the highest charting Billboard 200 entry (Heaven Knows, No. 61) of her career so far.

At the top of this year, on the chart dated Feb. 25, 2023, both Beyoncé and PinkPantheress appeared in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. That week, PinkPantheress’ Ice Spice-assisted “Boy’s A Liar, Pt. 2” flew from No. 14 to No. 4, while Queen Bey’s Grammy-winning “Cuff It” slipped to No. 9 from its peak of No. 6.
