What's up, ladies? It's time to shine the spotlight on some fierce accomplishments by our fellow Single Ladies out there. From Kandi Burruss slaying the makeup game with her new brand to Nicki Minaj topping the charts, and Megan Thee Stallion heating up the stage, there's so much black girl power to celebrate. So, grab your favorite drink, sit back, and let's dive into the fabulous achievements of these amazing women.
Kandi Burruss‘ Makeup Magic: Y’all, Kandi Koated Cosmetics by Kandi Burruss is bringing the heat with some limited-edition lipsticks for LGBTQ+ Pride Month and Juneteenth. Not only are these lipsticks popping with color, but 10% of the sales are going straight to NQTTCN – National Queer & Trans Therapists of Color Network. Talk about slayin’ with purpose!
Bow down to Queen Nicki: Nicki Minaj is showin’ everyone why she holds the crown. The Trini powerhouse has been rockin’ the rap game since 2007, and she just extended her record as the female rap artist with the most #1 songs on the US iTunes chart. Nicki Minaj is proving she’s the undisputed queen of rap, reminding us why she reigns supreme. Take that Taylor Swift!
Megan Thee Stallion’s Hot Performances: Get ready to break a sweat, ladies, because Megan Thee Stallion is about to set the stage on fire! She’s confirmed to perform at both Essence Fest and LA Pride, and she’s calling out all her “Hotties” to join her. (She’s not putting out any new music until she’s in a “better space” though.) Don’t miss out on partying with Thee Hot Girl Coach!
Issa Rae’s Barbie Swag: The Barbie universe just got a fabulous new addition inspired by none other than our girl, Issa Rae. The trailer for the upcoming Barbie Movie has dropped, and Mattel unveiled a doll capturing Issa Rae as the first Black Barbie President. Our sista is all about representing for the culture, and Issa is bringing it to the big screen. Plus, catch Issa as the voice of Spiderwoman in Spiderman: Across the Spider-Verse.
Rihanna’s Beauty Reign: Can we just take a moment to appreciate Rihanna‘s empire? Her beauty brand is killing it. Fenty Beauty was just named The Most Trusted Beauty Brand in the world, bringing in a cool $582.8 billion annually. Forbes even named her the 6th Richest Self-Made Woman Under 40. Rihanna is a boss, and she’s living the high life in her $22 million luxurious pad in Barbados. Talk about goals!
Latto x Cardi B Collab: Latto “Put It On The Floor” – again – on Instagram, announcing a collaboration with none other than Cardi B. Their music video and remix just hit the scene, and with their rivalry with Nicki Minaj, some speculators are taking some guesses as to who is the target for the subliminal jabs thrown in there. Plus LSU’s Angel Reese makes a cameo in the video looking fire as usual.
Janelle Monae’s Tour Tease: Get ready to groove, ladies, because Janelle Monae is hitting the road. She announced her upcoming tour on Instagram, teasing an exciting new era. The Age of Pleasure Tour is coming, and it’s exclusively for her F.A.M (Funky Ass Monae) fans. It’s time to let loose and enjoy the ride!
Remy Ma’s Prohibition Bash: Remy Ma knows how to throw a party, and her birthday celebration was nothing short of glamorous. Surrounded by friends, family, A-list celebrities, and media, she celebrated in style at the exclusive Casa De Lobos lounge in Jersey City. The roaring ’20s theme added that extra touch of sophistication.
Scar Lip Update: We got to keep up with this rising rap phenom from the BX! This girl just got a new bag with the signing of her new deal with Epic Records. Come on, Scar – we rootin for you!
These accomplishments by our fellow single ladies are nothing short of amazing. They’re breaking barriers, making their mark, and inspiring us all. Until next week, keep slaying, ladies.
