Beyonce accused of cultural appropriation after African-themed baby shower

Beyonce has been accused of cultural appropriation after throwing an African-themed baby shower. Over the weekend, the heavily pregnant star donned African attire which consisted of a head-wrap with a matching printed skirt and large beaded necklace for the Carter Push party. She completed the look by decorating her bare bump with a large henna tattoo.

Guests at the event, hosted by her mother Tina Knowles, included tennis champion Serena Williams, former Destiny's Child bandmates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, actress La La Anthony and Saturday Night Live's Vanessa Bayer.

While some praised the songstress for "embracing her roots" other claimed the theme was disingenuous due to the fact that she has barely performed in Africa.
