Maurice Dane Scott is one of the latest. The 18-year-old Saunders Trades Technical High School grad recreated the look of the Lemonade album cover in a photo, with a special graduation touch. In the picture, which he posted to Twitter this week, he’s wearing fur and kneeling down by a car just like on the album cover. He also pasted the snapshot onto his mortarboard. But he decided to put his own milestone-themed spin on the image by including “GRADUATE” in the style of the album’s signature font. “Beyoncé has been a huge inspiration in my life. To me, Lemonade means diversity,” he told TIME of the album’s blend of genres. “That’s the kind of flexible and cultured person I want to be. I also love the poetry, the visuals, and the political statements. ” See his tweet below containing the photos, which had 4,700 likes as of Friday morning. > [](https://twitter.com/IamDayneScott/status/877649614316371968) The Vaughn College of Aeronautics and Technology-bound scholar really puts the super in super-fan.
