First Look: Solange Releases A Short Video For ‘Locked In Closets’

Plus She Got A Fabulous Feature In 'Vogue' Magazine
'Follow Me On A Vibrant Journey Through My Hood'

One of my absolute favorite albums of 2012 was Solange‘s EP True. There are so few artists who I can listen to all day, every day, from the beginning of an album to the end, but my girl Solange has got it! Last year she released a brilliant video for her single Losing You and now she’s teaming up with Refinery 29 & Absolut for a new mini-video for her song Locked In Closets. I sooo wanted this to be a full-blown, official video, but it’s still a really fun and funky visual and Solange is now officially apart of their Free Spirits campaign. Peep the video for more and click inside for a recent photo shoot Solange did with Vogue Magazine. They covered her preparation for the 2013 MET Ball, and she looks, typically, fab.

Watch: A ‘Banned’ Guinness Commercial From 1995, Featuring A Same-Sex Couple, Finds New Life In 2013

I'll Drink to That
Stand By Your Man

Back in 1995, Guinness produced a television commercial that featured a same-sex male couple in a loving (if somewhat messy) relationship. At the time, the company decided that the image of a male couple in an ad campaign was not suitable for airing on TV (largely due to the British tabloid press that deemed the ad “controversial and wrong”). Late last year, the commercial found its way to the Internets and it’s been making the rounds ever since. I am in love with this commercial … which I find clever, cute and extremely progressive … especially for the time in which it was produced. Guinness has long been one of my favorite beers so I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to see that a company that I love to support has been a long supporter of gay rights. Even tho the commercial was never officially released, it’s clear the company intent was to showcase same-sex love in a very positive light AND associate that love with the Guinness brand. Amazing. My Goodness, indeed.

Watch: Beyoncé Debuts A New Song In Her Mrs. Carter ‘H&M’ Ad

'Standing On The Sun'
Beyoncé As Mrs. Carter For H&M

You know what I tell myself when I see Beyoncé in a bikini? I tell myself, ‘Self, if you got a campaign with H&M and they were giving you jabillions of dollars, you’d do be sure to have abs like that too.‘ And then I finish my bowl of Froot Loops and continue to enjoy my life (and my body) as I know it. So there… lol. We all know Beyoncé is the new face of H&M and her promo pics for their summer line have been pretty, insanely hawt. She just dropped a video ad and in it she debuts a new song titled Standing On The Sun; it sounds like a hit, y’all. Peep the video for more!

Shouts-out to PITNBr Iris B for sending this my way!

Beyoncé’s Full H&M Summer Campaign Is Unveiled

Poolside Bey

A little while back H&M formally announced their collaboration with Beyoncé. We got our first look at one of the campaign photos, and now the full set is here. I’m not gonna lie y’all. These photos are difficult to look at… I’d love to scream ‘airbrushed’ but the truth is, she looks so natural and so effing amazing, and she can seriously just go somewhere with those abs. It’s like the GQ shoot all over again, only worse because… seriously. No airbrushing, lol! Peep the gallery for more. It’s Bey!

Marilyn Manson & Courtney Love Are The New Faces Of Saint Laurent
