Beyonce appeared to shrug off controversy from her recent campaign with Tiffany & Co, as she took to Instagram over the weekend to post a series of stunning images. 

The former Destiny’s Child star looked incredible in the shots, wearing a figure-hugging black dress, but stayed silent on the post – despite recent reports she was ‘disappointed and angry’ at the luxury jeweler.  

The singer, 39, was out with husband Jay-Z on Friday in New York, to celebrate the 18th anniversary of the rap mogul’s 40/40 Club.

Beyonce wore the famed 128.54 carat Tiffany Diamond, in a photoshoot with her husband, which debuted last week – becoming just the fourth female – and the first black woman – to ever wear the gem. 

However the chart-topper and the luxury jewelry brand have come under furious fire over the decision to showcase the controversial diamond, with many social media users calling attention to its contentious history and the circumstances under which it was mined.   

The diamond was discovered in a colonial mine in Kimberley, South Africa, in 1877 – at a time when the country, and its mines,

were under British colonial rule – and when predominantly black migrant workers were subjected to horrific conditions while receiving paltry, and sometimes no, pay in return. 

According to a source close to Beyonce, the singer was unaware of the diamond’s controversial history, and has been left outraged over the fact that she was not given more information about the gem’s background.  

‘Beyonce is aware of the criticism and is disappointed and angry that she wasn’t made aware of questions about its history,’ an unnamed insider told The Sun.
