How Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Gigi Hadid, and Other Celebrities Celebrated 4th of July
The 4th of July might be over, but we can still relive the holiday on Instagram, thanks to the dozens of celebrities who shared their party pictures over the weekend.
Taylor Swift partied poolside with her crew of famous BFFs and new boyfriend Calvin Harris, while Kim Kardashian watched the fireworks from a boat with Kanye and North. Meanwhile, Beyoncé cracked out the double denim, Miley Cyrus partied in a patriotic bikini, and Nicki Minaj made time in between her performances to celebrate with friends.
We’re pretty sure our invitations were lost in the mail–but that hasn’t stopped us from recapping everything the celebrity set got up to over 4th of July weekend.
