Beyoncé Joins Famed French Dictionary, Examine Out the Definition

Beyoncé is making French history — as her name is set to be added to the Larousse dictionary … and you gotta peep their definition for Queen Bey.

According to UK’s The Times, the singer is 1 of 40 notable names — both French and foreign — being added to the famed dictionary, Petit Larousse Illustré … which updates its contents annually.

Bey, who is listed as a proper noun in the new edition, is described as “American singer of R&B and pop” — seemingly leaving out the superstar’s recent foray into country.

Although Beyoncé is one of the biggest superstars in the world, her addition to the dictionary wasn’t necessarily guaranteed … as names are curated by a jury, who annually create a list of around 150 words and people recognizable to the French-speaking world.

Bey isn’t the only modern celebrity joining the dictionary … as Cate Blanchett, LeBron James, そして “Oppenheimer” director Christopher Nolan have all been submitted as well.
