Our fave BG with the chic black and white style — Janelle Monáe, has been named the newest face of CoverGirl! The singer, 26, joins the ranks of fellow BGs who have worked with the coveted cosmetics brand: Rihanna, Queen Latifah, Tyra Banks, and Brandy.

Known for her eclectic semi-formal fashions, the Kansas native hopes to encourage women to embrace their individuality and inner beauty.  “I believe it’s time that women truly owned their superpowers and used their beauty and strength to change the world around them,” Monáe said in a statement.
