Re make of Flashdance, a la J.Lo ...... Beyoncé talks about the Pressure of Perfectionism in Elle Magazine + the international covers below from Sweden, Netherlands and France
She and Jay Z are celebrating their eighth wedding anniversary.
The relatively private power couple has yet to give each other a public anniversary shout out, but the "Formation" singer did speak about their closeness in her 204 mini-doc "Yours & Mine":
"You know, everybody's not good at everything. It's OK to depend on someone; it's actually what we're supposed to do," she says. "We're supposed to depend on each other, and when you find the person that you trust and you love and that you feel that is going to respect you and take all of the s*** that you have and turn it around and bring out the best in you, it feeds you. It is the most powerful thing you can ever feel in your life. ... One thing that's for sure: The love that I have for music, for my husband, for my child, is something that will last far beyond my life."
Baddie Beyoncé on the issue of Elle Magazine, the 34-year-old mogulette talks about her new brand Ivy Park, the pressures of perfectionism, running her own company and more.
See excerpts below.
On the ethos of her new Ivy Park brand: “It’s really the essence: to celebrate every woman and the body she’s in while always striving to be better. I called it Ivy Park because a park is our commonality. We can all go there; we’re all welcomed. It’s anywhere we create for ourselves. For me, it’s the place that my drive comes from. I think we all have that place we go to when we need to fight through something, set our goals and accomplish them.”
On the pressure of perfectionism: “It’s really about changing the conversation. It’s not about perfection. It’s about purpose. We have to care about our bodies and what we put in them. Women have to take the time to focus on our mental health—take time for self, for the spiritual, without feeling guilty or selfish. The world will see you the way you see you, and treat you the way you treat yourself.”
On running her own company and being a businesswoman: “It’s exciting, but having the power to make every final decision and being accountable for them is definitely a burden and a blessing. To me, power is making things happen without asking for permission. It’s affecting the way people perceive themselves and the world around them. It’s making people stand up with pride.”
