She wore a peach-coloured ensemble that included a corseted Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit and a matching skirt. She completed her look with a feathered jacket, lace handbag, and sunglasses.

According to TMZ, Jay-Z has been highly supportive of Gloria, who came out as a lesbian in his 2017 track ‘Smile’, where she jumped on the song to discuss living in the shadows as a gay woman.

“Mama had four kids, but she’s a lesbian/Had to pretend so long that she’s a thespian/Had to hide in the closet, so she medicates/Society shame and the pain was too much to take,” the Grammy winner rapped in the song.

“Cried tears of joy when you fell in love/Don’t matter to me if it’s him or her/I just wanna see you smile through all the hate/Marie Antoinette, baby, let ’em eat cake.”

He ended up thanking her for letting him tell her story at the 2019 GLAAD Media Awards. (ANI)
