She’s style, she is grace, she’s a cover girl oh hey! Supermodel IMAN Covers InStyle March 2019 edition and she is looking as fabulous as ever. In the article, InStyle discusses her iconic career and more!
IMAN Covers InStyle March 2019 Issue -Fashion’s Unrivaled Empress
How did IMAN come to have such an amazing career in the tough and gruff modeling and fashion industries? Well, the model is discussing just that to InStyle. Regarding the piece and IMAN’s gorgeous visuals, the magazine says,
“Supreme. For our second March subscriber cover, IMAN wore this t-shirt as an homage to her stature as an unrivaled deity of the modeling world; a trailblazing cosmetics entrepreneur; and a long-standing advocate for women. (Although it was her idea for it to be wet!).
Her career has spanned four decades. And although she retired from the runways in 1989; she continues to outpace some of her youngest peers both in relevancy and ad pages. Most recently doing campaigns for Valentino and Balmain.
‘My plan is just loose. It’s kind of weird, because I’ve worked all my life, from when I was 14 years old… I’ve stumbled into things; or things found me. So now I’m at a stage where i’ll just see what happens.’
Read more of Eric Wilson’s profile of the supermodel at [our website online].”
IMAN Covers InStyle March 2019 Issue
So really, how did the wet tee shirt thing come about? It’s such a sexy move and InStyle’s Fashion News Director, Eric Wilson had the full scoop! Wilson reveals,
“About that time I had to ask IMAN why she decided to pose in a wet T-shirt for the cover of InStyle. ‘I suggested it,’ she told me. ‘I’m 63 — why would I have a Supreme T-shirt? It’s just a boring T-shirt. It’s too young and too hip.
So (on the set) I said, jokingly, ‘Why don’t we get it wet?’ And as I said it, everybody said, ‘Yeah!’ I was like, “F&%&, now I have to deliver.'”
Sounds juicy. Also, Eric says there is more to the story. So get the details on that as well as the rest of interview at www.instyle.com/celebrity/iman-march-feature.

Beyoncé put out one post and she already has fans shoveling in grass. Okay, that is a little drastic, but the point is that many are now willing to give a vegan diet a try. The GreenPrint Project is a “system” that was created to help people get healthier and in turn sexier by turning to a plant based diet.
As a result, Beyoncé and her hubby, Jay Z are challenging their fans to consume better foods. Both Bey and Jay have been apt vegan dieters and the results are in the vegan pudding. When Queen Bey slims ALL THE WAY down this is the diet secret she uses. Therefore, if it is good enough for the queen, now we all can finally have the body of a celebrity… without the knife or needle.
The GreenPrint Project -Eat Vegan See Beyonce in Concert for Life
So then, how does this all work? Marco Borges, the trainer of Beyoncé and Jay Z; and the mastermind behind GreenPrint Project briefly summarizes it this way,
“The Greenprint is a program for a health transformation. It is also a blueprint for plant-based eating. And, yes, it is vegan, but with a difference.
You don’t have to change every item in your diet. Start with one change like meatless dinners and build on that. The road to well-being starts with making informed decisions that will help you shop, cook, eat and feel better.
Did you know? The best sources of protein are plant based; like beans, whole grains, nuts and seeds. Love food that loves you back. Love food that will give you health and vitality.”
Want to take the plunge so that you can win some Bey tickets? Well, to get started all you need is a positive attitude, determination, 22 days; along with Marcos Borges 22 Day Nutrition Program. Acook book that tells you everything you have to do.
Yes, you will need to be firmly dedicated for 22 days straight. Why? Well, Borges is utilizing the proven technique that it takes 22 days to make something a habit. So in 22 days you will be more in the swing of things when it comes to eating vegan. So much so you may never go back.
Furthermore, the online 22 Days Meal Planner (which comes as a $14 monthly subscription, so we are not referring to the book in this case); comes with meal plans, assistance and even a food delivery option if you live in certain areas. This will no doubt help you to stay on track and focused on reaching your goal.
Our next post will be pretty in-depth when it comes to the nutrition plan. So if you are really wanting to try this out be sure to read it.
Besides the 22 day plan, picking of The GreenPrint Project book itself will be very helpful. What’s inside? The GreenPrint Project page had this to say,
“The most revolutionary plant-based lifestyle is here! With meal plans, more than 60 delicious recipes; step-by-by guidelines; and inspirational success stories; the book will forever change your approach to food and your perspective on health.”
The GreenPrint Project -Eat Vegan See Beyonce in Concert for Life (Continued)
However, one quick word on the free concerts for life. Yes, the contest is very real. To enter you must sign up online at www.thegreenprintproject.com and pledge to give the vegan lifestyle a try. Must be 18 years and older, plus be a U.S. resident.
If you do win you can expect one free concert per tour. Lastly, the free concerts will only be for up to 30 years. So kinda not quite a lifetime (LOL); BUT, that places Bey and Jay in their 70s-80s so you probably will not miss much.

If you recall back when Got ’til It’s Gone, What About, Go Deep and I Get Lonely was ruling the charts; Janet rocked a head full of glamorous copper-red tone ringlets. The style is a look Janet not only used for her album cover that year, but in a plethora of videos and photoshoots.
Nevertheless, Jackson is back to performing and she seems to be back to one of her iconic hairstyles, i.e. VR days. Fans got a first glance and glimpse thanks to photographer, Solaiman Fazel. Fazel captured Janet backstage getting ready before she hit the stage out west in the United States. Janet was performing in the city that never sleeps, Las Vegas.
Now while there is a hard, fast rule that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Jackson’s new look broke that unspoken standard in all of two seconds. Janet Jackson posted a pic of herself posed in front of a mirror in all her curl glory with the caption, “New Year, new look.”
Will this iconic queen keep this look for the rest of the year? Probably not, because she is the master of reinvention. However, for now we love it and are glad to still she here switching up her chic hair game.

You Asked: Hey 1966 this is sort of just out of curiousity lol I saw the teaser of Cardi’s Superbowl commercial and I immediately loved her jacket, nails, hair, sparkly cup, just everything really. So was wondering where her outfit is from and if we can buy the cup somewhere too.
Ask and Tell: Cardi B Chae New York Unbalenced Sequin Jacket Dress for Pepsi Superbowl Commercial
The Verdict: Hi there! We got your message and we too want that can! However, before we get to that let’s talk Cardi B couture! For her upcoming 2019 Superbowl commercial, Cardi is wearing a design by fashion label, CHAE New York. If searching for this particular look online it is called the “Unbalenced Sequin Jacket Dress.”
The cost? As of right now, some would say that this amazing glittering number is a “splurge.” Currently, CHAE New York’s Unbalenced Sequin Jacket Dress is retailing for $2,290.
Now when comes to that sparkling Pepsi can Cardi has in the commercial, that’s a different story. So far, there is no word if the can will be available for purchase anywhere. As of right now, it’s just a super cool accessory. Sorry! (Trust us, we are bummed too lol).

She may have turned down the opportunity to perform live at the biggest sporting event of the year; however, that did not stop this superstar woman from still making her money moves. The Cardi B 2019 Superbowl Commercial is officially on and fans can’t wait to find out what it’s going to be about.
On her Instagram page, Cardi B teased the world with a very brief snippet from the upcoming advertisement. Moreover, when we say brief, we mean BRIEF. Literally, all together the tiny teaser was no longer than 4 seconds. Not enough to really decipher anything; but enough to cause an entertainment frenzy.
OKURRRR! Cardi B 2019 Superbowl Commercial with Pepsi
Just in case you haven’t seen it. Check it out below. It’s played twice so you get to enjoy 8 seconds of Cardi B; instead of a whopping 4.
As you can see, Pepsi is giving away absolutely NO spoilers. However, they did share one little thing. The popular cola brand also hit up social media just about a week ago with a 16 second teaser video showcasing hip hop artist and producer Lil’ Jon pouring Pepsi in a cup.
Unfortunately, it was not a Crunk Juice cup (seriously, how lit would that of been!??); but, it did shed some light on a tiny clue. Lil’ Jon is famous for his, “OKAYYY!” While Cardi B is majorly copied for her, “OKURR!” Both derivatives of the same word in our humble in opinion (LOL); therefore, maybe the spot will be a salute to why the world should only be OKAY and OKURR to drinking Pepsi.
We are probably absolutely wrong (HaHa)), but you can’t deny the correlation. Us and the world will just have to wait till February 2nd in order to see the full commercial drop. Are you excited to see it?
