When you’re one of the richest women in showbiz and you’re married to a man who’s your match financially, there’s very little you can refuse yourself. So when Beyonce decided she would wear something really special in her next video, she went out and made sure she got it.

According to reports in the British media cited by the Daily Mail, Beyonce’s next music video will see her strutting her (hot) stuff in a pair of diamond heels priced at £200,000 / $312,256 / €284,671. Only the best for Queen Bey and her royal feet.

Princess Constellation shoes are now Beyonce’s

The new stilettos are officially known as the House of Borgezie Princess Constellation shoes and are made of 1,290 precious stones, as you can see in the photo attached.

They might not be the kind of shoes you’d take out on a night clubbing, even if you happen to move in the same exclusive circles as Beyonce, but they’re perfect for a new music video. According to the report, it will be out sometime in the fall, so if the information is true, Beyonce should be wearing them.

The Princess Constellation shoes were created by designer Christopher Michael Shellis, who offers a 1,000-year guarantee for them. At the kind of money they’re selling for, it’s not exactly surprising he does.

“It's the ultimate, Beyonce's one of those fantasy customers,” Shellis is quoted as saying. “If you want someone to model your creations, you can't get any better than Beyonce. I've been told the stilettos are for her next video which should be out in the autumn.”

Moreover, Beyonce also bought a matching belt, which she’ll also be wearing in the video. This one, though, was considerably less expensive, setting her back only £55,000 / $85,889 / €78,187.

Nothing but the best for Queen Bey

While there’s a chance that this report isn’t entirely accurate, it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise that Beyonce is living the kind of life that would be deemed “eccentric” even by the standards of the 1%.

Not long ago, Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryen on HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” let it slip in an interview that Jay Z once visited the set, he being, like millions of people from all over the world, a fan of the show.

However, unlike those millions of people, Jay Z was able to arrange an on-set visit, which is when he saw the three dragon egg props used in the first season. He offered to buy one and, though it was expensive, he closed the deal on it.

Clarke said that he insisted on making the transaction because Beyonce was a big fan of the series and he knew she would just “love” if she got a dragon egg as a surprise present. Why, you don’t say!
