The recent announcement of Janelle Monáe as the newest spokesmodel of CoverGirl has rippled throughout the natural hair community. The 26 year old entertainer has joined the ranks of Taylor Swift, Rihanna and now PINK as some of the illustrious musical CoverGirl spokesmodels.
Already a fan of the fabulous young singer, I am even more excited about the message this sends to all the young women, aspiring musicians and naturalistas out there. Janelle has been in the forefront of the natural hair community since she made her official debut with her “ArchAndroid” album in 2010. Her retro, yet classic style, signature tuxedo and iconic pompadour coif makes her a standout in the music industry. The ‘Monáe’ is probably one of the most sought after and recreated styles among naturals; I am definitely a fan of the look and have even given it a try myself!
Kudos to CoverGirl for making a fabulous choice! Janelle Monáe will not only do justice for the spokesmodel role, she is the living and breathing representation of a CoverGirl. She cannot be boxed into the traditional standard of beauty mold. She simultaneously encompasses the beauty of every little girl wanting to be a star when they grow up and every woman seeking that classically beautiful look. The lovely Janelle Monáe is now singing a tune to easy, breezy, beautiful CoverGirl!
