Bey’s Queen of pioneers... STAR TIPS HAT TO PAST INNOVATORS
TIFFANY Stanley looks great as she basks in the sunshine in a sexy white bikini.
The Irish model posted the snaps on her Instagram account following a photoshoot in the Bahamas for her brand Malibu Bronze’s spring campaign.
BEYONCE tipped her cowboy hat to all the artists who dared to step outside the box at the iHeartRadio Awards.
The superstar delivered a powerful speech, noting all the legends before her time as she picked up the prestigious Innovator award at the ceremony.
Bey, who’s currently outselling the rest of the Top 5 with her country album Cowboy Carter, thanked them for opening doors and making it possible for artists like herself to experiment.
She said: “I want to dedicate this award to all the innovators who have dedicated their lives and their art to creating shifts. So thank you for your sacrifices, your powerful voices, and your dauntless spirits.
“Thank you to Rosetta Tharpe, Miss Tracy
Chapman,
Linda Martell,
Prince, Stevie
Wonder, Andre 3000, Tina
Turner, Michael
Jackson and so many more who defied any label placed upon them. Thank you for executing your dream so we could all follow.”
The singer also expressed her dream of a more accepting society: “To all the record labels, every radio station, every awards show, my hope is that we’re more open to the joy and liberation that comes from enjoying art with no preconceived notions.”
Harmonica
Queen Bey was given the accolade by Stevie Wonder, who she revealed plays harmonica on her take on Jolene.
She gushed to Stevie: “Whenever anyone asks me if there’s anyone that I could listen to for the rest of my life, it’s always you.” “And thank you for playing the harmonica on Jolene.”
There was also a sweet moment for her family: “My husband, my rock, my best friend, I love you.”
