Beyoncé's Halloween Call to Action: Vote!

Beyoncé has done something she hasn't in years—released a new music video. But this isn't your typical video. It's a fun, quick clip called "Beywatch, " dropped on U. S. Election Day. In it, she's dressed up as Pamela Anderson, singing along to an edited version of Cowboy Carter's "Bodyguard, " and reminding everyone to vote. After her spooky-themed performance, she wishes us a happy "Beylloween. " You might remember that her last music videos were part of her visual album "Black Is King" and the film "Lemonade. " Before that, her last standalone solo music video was "Formation, " way back in 2015. Since then, she's been in some ads with her songs, but no new videos.

"Beywatch" comes right after she and her former Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland spoke at a rally for Kamala Harris in Houston last month. They were big supporters of Harris and talked a lot about reproductive freedom. Beyoncé had let Harris use her song "Freedom" from "Lemonade" at campaign events, something she didn't do for former President Donald J. Trump. Election Day is today, November 5.
