Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is showing off her final Halloween costume as her five-day celebration, dubbed "Beylloween," comes to a close.
The "Cowboy Carter" creator shared a video and new photos on her Instagram early Tuesday morning. This time Beyoncé channeled Pamela Anderson while rocking voluminous platinum blond hair with bangs and posing in different looks as the '90s pop culture icon.
In the video, which she captioned "Beywatch" in reference to the popular television series "Baywatch," Beyoncé sang along to her 2024 song "Bodyguard." In the snippet she holds up a "vote" sign, and at the end of the video a black screen reads "Happy Beylloween. Vote."
And it's clear Anderson herself is well-pleased with Beyoncé's rendition as she reposted the singer to her Instagram story Tuesday afternoon. The actress shared the photo in which Beyoncé took on Anderson's persona in the 1996 film "Barb Wire." In the story post, Anderson wrote, "don't call me bey...," making a reference to her iconic line in the movie while also sharing a heart emoji.
It's the first time fans, who have been urging the singer to release visuals, have seen some sort of video to coincide with her music in a few years. And Beyoncé seems to be well aware of this. In another post she shared more shots of her Anderson alter ego. In the background of one photo, it playfully reads "no visual awards" instead of "MTV Video Music Awards."

The series of Anderson photos were captioned "Beylloween fin," letting fans know this year's Halloween celebrations are officially over for the superstar. And this last costume was not exempt from growing speculation as fans wondered if it served as any indication of forthcoming visuals.
Rock album speculation grows
Prior to Beyoncé cosplaying as Anderson, she paid homage to the late legend Prince and his iconic movie "Purple Rain." On Friday, Queen Bey shared photos of the Halloween shoot, posing as both Prince and Apollonia, who also starred in the 1984 rock musical.
In this shoot, Beyoncé rocked jet black hair to go along with her purple ensemble. She also made sure to pose with a guitar in hand. In the caption she wrote, "Purple Nasty," leaving fans to further theorize that Act III of her latest series of albums could be a rock album.
In July 2022 Beyoncé released her seventh studio album "Renaissance," and she later announced the album was the first part of a three-act project, making "Cowboy Carter" Act II. Given that that the first project was in the dance category and the second album was country, there has been growing speculation that the last project in the trilogy could be a rock album.
Beyoncé shared her first costume early on Friday as she transformed into funk-rock diva Betty Davis. In the photos Beyoncé rocks a black and white-printed bodysuit, white ankle boots and red lipstick with her hair in an afro.
In the comments, one user wrote, "never beating the Act III rock allegations." It's only a matter of time before fans will know what's up her sleeve next.
For now though, happy Beylloween to all those who celebrate.
