StyleFoul: Beyonce has grandma legs

When I first saw this picture, my eyes started on the face and went down from there. Everything was looking fine; hair was looking good, the over-sized earrings were alright with me, dress was gorgeous, and Beyonce's body has never looked better. But wait! Hold the phones people, who's legs are those?

Those are legs of a 75 year old grandmother waiting at the bus stop. Beyonce is wearing some beyond thick nylons that aren't even close to her natural skin color. Look at her chest, then quickly pan down to her legs. It's like looking at two different people; Beyonce and someone's grandmother.

Here is a little fashion tip for all of you women out there, especially in these warm summer months, do not wear nylons. Beyonce is a young woman in her 20's, no need for nylons. The only thing she needs is a nice coating of shimmer lotion and she can be on her way. For those of you who feel like you need a little coverage, try Airbrush leg sprays from Sally Hansen, it's fabulous. The spray is light, natural looking and covers up any ugly marks on your legs. Just promise me you won't pull a Grandma Beyonce on us.

This is rediculous, giving a fashion critique to a woman standing next to a guy in tennis shoes, bandana, and cammo t.

That was such a cruel and unnessary commentary. I am dissapointed that AOL would even feature such trashy 'entertainment'. The Celebrity life might seem glamorous to an onlooker- but this blog is a classic example as to why it not... constant criticism from the public. Some think your too fat, some speculate that you must have had a brow lift..... it goes on an on and its hurtful not only to them but to those who indulge themselves in the curlety.
Beyonce- you are a beautiful young woman.

Sally Hansen's Airbrush spray for legs is great; I use it. I don't understand the nylons on Beyonce either. Unless, they cost hundreds of dollars and are some status, luxury item that I wouldn't know about. I do see her shopping a lot in tabloid photos. That's probably it. Some clerk in Paris somewhere told her how fabulous they are, and she fell for it.

Sorry, but I think when a woman wears a nice dress and does not wear hose, she looks skanky. Of course, the hose should be the right shade and texture. Admittedly, Beyonce made a poor choice. And that airbrush stuff? It looks fake. It does not look like you have smooth natural legs and it does not look like hose. It just looks like spray-on crap.

Ladies, if you are wearing a nice dress, FINISH THE LOOK and wear hose. Otherwise, you look totally low-class.

If your grandma's legs look like this, boy I wish I was your granddad for a week! You'd have another uncle or aunt. Have a wonderful day!

It used to be that when you were in a dress,nylons were a must. Pantyhose companies even made lighter ones for summer. As a woman in her 40's, I still feel that a pair of nylons finishes a nice dress. They don't have to be the color of your skin,just as long as they go with the outfit. Bare legs,in my opinion,indicate that she is not yet properly dressed.Keep your hose on,Beyonce. It just shows your a proper lady.

My opinion is that Beyonce could wear anything she wants and still look fabulous. She could wear a brown paper bag and still floss it.

this is dumb because beyonce does not have "grandma" legs, i thot it was going to show beyonce next to her grandma showing where she inherited her beautiful legs and if she wants to wear tights even if is she isnt matching does it matter? she is one of the most beatiful people in the world and you guys are accusing her of having grandma legs for wearing stockings? good lord, some journalist really need lives. let beyonce wear stockings she has more money than any of us replying to this blog she can afford to wear anything she wants, and just enough money to throw away that outfit if she wanted.

Bare legs are fine with shorts or sundresses. A fancy dress with bare legs looks unfinished. Sticking bare feet into dressy shoes is skanky, too. Hose adds a classy look, and makes legs look awesome. JAY-Z is the one who needs fashion advice - he should try looking like a MAN when he's standing next to someone who looks like a woman!
