Surprise, it’s Beyoncé — the superstar behind the mask on the cover of September’s CR
Fashion Book.
Issue No. 5 of the magazine produced by Carine Roitfeld, former
editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris, hits newsstands Sept. 4 — the same day as Queen
Bey’s 33rd birthday.
In addition to donning the latest flashy fashions, Beyoncé — fresh off
her showstopping performance on MTV’s Video Music Awards — also straps on a
Chanel surfboard and crushes pomegranates just for fun.
Written in her own words and remixed by Pulitzer Prize Poet Forest
Gander, Beyoncé expresses herself in an original prose for the magazine:
“You call me a singer, but I’m called to transform, to suck up the
grief, anxiety, and loss of those who hear me into my song’s form.
It’s my daughter, she’s my
biggest muse. There’s someone we all find out soon, more important than
ourselves to lose.
Utopias, they don’t much interest me. I always mess things up a bit.
Its chaos, in part, that helps us see.”
Roitfeld put the pop princess on the cover as a birthday gift. To find
out what Bey gave in return . . . you’ll have to buy the issue.
