Is there a cover that Beyonce Knowles is not gracing at the moment?

We have seen her in Essence, Gotham and InStyle US. As you can see there are 3 covers for this Winter 2008 issue. The magazine, prepared 50,000 ‘Obama’s in the House’ red, white and blue stickers to add to front cover.

Editor Stephen Gan said “The issues were on their way to newsstands and this was our own small way of commemorating the moment.”

Here are some extracts from her interview:

On her preparations for her 110-date tour starting next year: “When I’m onstage I’m aggressive and strong and not afraid of my sexuality. The tone of my voice gets different, and I’m fearless. I’m just a different person.”

On her alter ego, ‘Sasha Fierce’: “It’s a way for me to differentiate what I do onstage from who I really am – It’s a way for me to not lose myself, to keep my life in perspective, because it’s really hard sometimes to stay on earth when you’re a celebrity.”

On the her hectic life: “There’s so much going on, and so many people give you whatever you want and say everything you do is great. At this point, I kind of have it down. I know boundaries, and I can look at somebody and say I don’t want them in my circle. I’ve been doing this for twelve years professionally, and I’ve learned. it’s easier now. Fame is a lot of work, but it doesn’t consume my life. I’m not obsessed.”

On the moment just before she performs at her concerts: “It’s funny because right before the show I’m under the stage making sure my double-stick is in the right place, my pack is turned on, and my shoes have the stickies on the bottom so I don’t slip – all of these things that are so not glamorous. Then I take my last slip of water, clear my throat, close my eyes, and tell myself: “You are fierce. You are fierce. You are fierce!” And the second I take that first step and hear the crowd, I kind of transform. By the time I get up to the stage, I’m in the zone. It’s like I’m ready for war.”





OK she has same expressions in all the main pictures, but you can not deny the Dior and Rodarte editorials are amazing. ? the Dior.

    Anon, I am surprised.

    Jennifer Aniston is not my favourite person, so she has not been a priority, but I will feature her next week.

    I just want you all to know that when I contacted Rodarte’s studio in LA last month about that dress, they answered back with the price tag that made me fall right off my chair: $27,000

    FC: I know, its incredible that a dress could cost that much. they said it was embedded with swarovski crystals, and took ages to dye.

    i adore the dress, its my favourite of all the spring 09′ evening dresses i saw, but the price tag is crazy, esp in this financial climate we’re in! but to be fair, the rodarte staff we’re so personable and lovely and didn’t cut any tude like other brands.

    now im just waiting with bated breath to see which celebrity will wear it, and i can tell you that she will immediately be my hero! (unless she’s someone i cant stomach like micha barton or paris hilton).

    I would actually cry if either those wore it.

    Like someone else said, this dress has Keira’s name all over it.

    I really can’t think of anyone else who could do it justice.

    We will just have to patiently wait and see.

    Leave it to Beyoncé to always spoil the most beautiful gowns with her beyoncification of looks. The dior dress looks so flirty and fun on the runaway but so cheap on her. And don’t get me started on the Rodarte dress. Someone make her stop, please!
