And now our assumptions are confirmed: Beyoncé looks amazing after giving birth to a baby.

Bey-Bey made her first public appearance Monday night to celebrate hubby Jay-Z's anticipated shows at Carnegie Hall to benefit United Way of New York City and the Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation.

The curvaceous beauty was all smiles and looked absolutely gorgeous in a red, long-sleeve Alice Temperly dress, which she accessorized with Ofira & Lorraine Schwartz jewels, an Alexander McQueen clutch and a pair of seriously fierce embroidered Christian Louboutin platform pumps.

Despite outlets reporting exclusive interviews, B has not made any appearances or given any interviews since her daughter Blue Ivy Carter was born. She did, however, make a personal statement on her blog after singer Etta James passed away. While avoiding the show, she did attend the afterparty at Jay-Z's 40/40 Club, all while managing to evade the press. (Her husband was spotted ensconced in a VIP section away from the rest of the partygoers.)

But now that she's come out, maybe Beyoncé is ready to gush about her new little girl just like her BFF did?
