Cover Girls: Kerry Washington Covers ELLE Magazine

Finally the cover we've all been waiting for Ms. Kerry to do! Everyone's favorite Scandal star Kerry Washington (aka Olivia Pope on Thursdays) has landed the coveted slot as cover star of ELLE Magazine's June issue.

The starlet looks absolutely flawless and is flaunting her body and her regal stance on the pages of the premiere US fashion glossy.

Aside from being obsessed with her on and off-camera style, I love some of the nuggets she drops in her interview with ELLE about her career and rise to fame.

On her recent Scandal success:

"I'm the luckiest broad in Hollywood now. To be the lead actor on Scandal and to be in the highest-earning Tarantino movie- I don't get to ask for more."

 On prepping for red-carpet appearances:

"I found out I enjoy the process. All these people show up at my house, they all have kits, someone has dresses. And it's like, Let's have fun. It's not all about me. We're able to create stories on the red carpet."

Sister girl looks super glam - I'm beyond proud of her. Aren't you?

Fierce or Foolish: Beyonce at Super Bowl 2013 Press Junket

 Beyonce has been spotted out and about in New Orleans this week prepping for her big half-time performance at the 2013 Super Bowl. She showed up to the Super Bowl media junket in Lousiana rocking a tangerine Antonio Berardi Fall 2012 body-conscious dress and gold Jimmy Choo heels.

 I'm gonna have to vote "Fierce" on this look for Queen Bey. The dress is super flattering to her body shape (which is flawless, by the way *shakes fists at the sky*) and comes in last year's "it" color, tangerine. I think she looks gorgeous.

The side-swept bangs are a nice touch. Proud Mama Tina wore a red blazer and tailored pants, very appropriate and classy. She's been really into tangerine lately. 

She rocked NCLA's "I'm With The Band" for her 2013 Inauguration look, which is an amazing tangerine. I happen to love it. See me wearing it below:

Can't wait to share the full review of this color with you guys.

Anyway, thoughts on Beyonce's tangerine look? Fierce or Foolish? Soundoff below!

P.S. A little treat for you Bey stans (myself included) - a look at her rehearsals for Super Bowl 2013:

NEWS: Destiny's Child Releases New Album

Ok so I don't usually do this but umm....Destiny's Child is back y'all! I never really post about music news on LoveBrownSugar but I couldn't hardly contain my excitement. Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams are joining forces once again to produce new music!

When I saw Beyonce's Facebook page announce that for the first time in 8 years, the group that made her would be releasing new music, I nearly fell out Baptist-church style. I tootsie rolled. I raised the roof. I did the butterfly. It was a moment. See screenshot below:

I've been a dedicated Destiny's Child fan since childhood. I grew up on their music. As in, as a Junior High School kid I skipped class to head to the FYE store in midtown NYC for their "Survivor" album signing. Waited on line for 7 hours and then proceeded to cry when Beyonce shook my hand. Yeah, that dedicated...

The album is set for release on January 29th, 2013. It's available now for pre-order at Amazon HERE. The album's title is "Love Songs".

I mean, I can't wait. I'm still tootsie-rolling. 

Is anyone else a DC Fan like myself? Will you be ordering?
