Queen Bey and her 8-year-old modeled the clothing line while shopping in New York City during NY Fashion Week, and sent samples to her friend Kim Kardashian-West after Blue Ivy's adorable playdate with Kim's son Saint. Blue Ivy Modeled Beyoncé's New Adidas LineBeyoncé initially launched her Ivy Park activewear clothing line in 2016, but recently reintroduced the collection in conjunction with Adidas under the name "Adidas X Ivy Park." The line, which includes a variety of track suits, cycling shorts, sweatpants, T-shirts, and other attire, sold out minutes after its Jan. 18 release. advertising To further promote her Adidas collaboration, the award-winning singer and actress shopped around New York City on Thursday wearing Adidas X Ivy Park gear. She dressed her daughter Blue Ivy in a matching outfit, and the pair generated instant buzz as fashion experts were already in town for NY Fashion Week.

A source told Us Magazine that she's becoming good friends with Kim Kardashian-West's son Saint, after the duo enjoyed a play-date together earlier this year. advertising Interscope Records co-founder and music executive Jimmy Iovine reportedly invited some close friends and their families over to his home, and Beyoncé's husband Jay-Z brought Blue Ivy, Rumi and Sir while Kim attended the gathering with three of her and Kanye West's children, Saint, Chicago and Psalm.

Posted: 10 Feb 2020 10:33 PM PST Following the death of Kobe Bryant in a helicopter crash two weeks ago, there have been countless stories about the late NBA icon and the impact that he made on others. Although Beyoncé's father, Mathew Knowles, actually tells a different story. He appeared on The Domenick Nati Show on Thursday and reminisced about an interaction that he had with Bryant nearly 20 years ago. "I remember one time when he was probably about 22 years old, and it was Beyoncé's – I think it was her first – her world tour," Knowles said. "And Kobe called and said, 'Mr. Knowles, can you get me a front-row seat?' I said, 'You just want one?' He said, 'Yes, I just want one.'" Beyoncé's father provided this ticket but was surprised that Bryant was attending the concert alone. He wanted to know the reason for this decision, so he caught up with the Lakers' star at the concert and asked why he would show up alone. "And so, I saw him at the concert, I said, 'Kobe, I am a little baffled. Why did you want to come to this concert?'" Knowles continued to explain. "He said, 'Well, I wanted to watch greatness, because I know I would learn from it.' That is the kind of person he was. He was locked in on watching – not from a fan perspective, but what could he learn from that experience?" The late NBA icon was known as a tireless competitor from the moment he entered the league at 17 years old. This drive and work ethic are what led him to become one of the greatest players of all time. This story by Knowles provides even more insight into Bryant's success. There are countless in the world that have the will and the drive to succeed in their chosen fields. They also spend considerable time studying the previous greats to gain an extra advantage. An example of this is New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who has studied those that came before him as well as those that recently entered the NFL. 0commentsBryant had this same drive to succeed, but he also pursued greatness by studying out of his chosen career field. Attending a Beyoncé concert with the goal of learning just proved to Knowles that the Lakers' star was a very unique person even at a relatively young age.

What Was Beyoncé's First No. 1 Single? - Showbiz Cheat Sheet Posted: 29 Jan 2020 12:00 AM PST Beyoncé Knowles is a global superstar, widely considered to be one of the most famous and beloved entertainers in the world. She has been in the spotlight for nearly two decades and continues to break new barriers every single day. For many fans, it seems as though there was never a time when Beyoncé wasn't hugely famous – still, even she had to start somewhere, and diehard members of the Bey-hive can likely remember the long-ago days when her first hit single circulated on the radio. How did Beyoncé get started in music?Beyoncé Knowles was born in Houston, Texas, in 1981. She began singing and dancing at a young age, and her teachers recognized and encouraged her talent. Before she was ten years old, Knowles had formed a group with her friend Kelly Rowland and LaTavia Robertson. The group would eventually become Destiny's Child. Mathew Knowles, Beyoncé's father, helped to nourish the young group's talent and chauffeured them around to meetings and performances. In the mid-nineties, Destiny's Child secured a record deal and began to write and record music. Their unique look and sound placed them in a category all their own, although they received comparisons to iconic female-led groups like The Supremes. Destiny's Child had several hit singlesDestiny's Child released their debut album in 1998 and quickly began to climb the ladder of success. Their singles "Killing Time," "No, No, No," "Jumpin' Jumpin'" and "Say My Name" became some of the biggest hits of the late nineties and early 2000s. With this success, Destiny's Child started earning legions of fans. In spite of ongoing turmoil within the band, Destiny's Child continued to perform consistently throughout the next few years, as well as write and record songs. All in all, Destiny's Child had four number one hit singles during the course of their time as a group, including "Say My Name," "Independent Woman Part I," "Bills, Bills, Bills," and "Bootylicious." They charted ten additional songs in the Billboard Top Ten. Still, as Beyoncé's fame continued to increase, Destiny's Child gradually fell by the wayside, and in 2002, she broke away to begin recording as a solo artist. What was Beyoncé's first number one song?In 2003, Beyoncé released her very first solo album, Dangerously in Love. The album became a huge hit and spawned a huge milestone for the young artist: her first number-one single as a solo artist, "Crazy In Love." As exciting as the song was for Beyoncé, it was probably less so for her fellow band members in Destiny's Child. In fact, they would only last as a group for two more years, and in 2005, they announced they would be disbanding in order to work on other projects. In the years since, Beyoncé has managed to achieve a level of fame that many could only dream of. She has been named as one of the most influential people in the world and is the most-awarded artist of all time at the MTV Video Music Awards. It seems as though there isn't a record that Beyoncé hasn't broken at some point in her career. She has even branched out to work in movies, writing a song for the hit 2019 film The Lion King. She has even achieved acclaim as an actress in her own right, with roles in Dreamgirls, The Pink Panther, Obsessed, and Goldmember. An artist with global reach and international acclaim, Beyoncé isn't likely to step away from the spotlight anytime soon. Her undeniable talent and drive have placed her in the pantheon of the greats. |
Posted: 05 Feb 2020 05:17 AM PST You could say Kali Hawk takes accessorizing to the extreme. Hawk, the founder of California jewelry line H.Crowne, is known for her signature pieces — crowns featuring large jewels and ornate metallic configurations, each one taller than the next. In a short amount of time, she has managed to hook Hollywood royalty, with an ultra-famous client list that includes singers Beyonce and Taylor Swift and tennis superstar Serena Williams. Her accessories have appeared in popular publications such as Harper's Bazaar and Paper. She also carefully crafts pieces for the rest of us — and considering H.Crowne has more than 41,000 followers on Instagram, the general public is excited by what she has to offer — with price points ranging from $160 to $6,000. But she says the celebrity orders comprise about 70 percent of her sales. [Related: Meghan Markle Does More Than Sparkle in Her Designer Jewelry] Perhaps it's in part because she understands them: Hawk is an actress herself, with roles in a number of big films. She can be spotted in "Bridesmaids," "Couples Retreat" and "Fifty Shades of Black," as well as on television shows like "New Girl." She has her own significant online audience, too — on Instagram alone, she has over 677,000 followers. Hawk attributes H. Crowne's popularity to small strokes of luck mixed with hard work. But she says success would be impossible without the attention she gives to each piece she sells. "I care about these items, about people feeling good in these items," she says. "You can tell these were made by somebody who cares about what's being made, and cares about the people wearing them." Hard Work, and a Hand from FateThe New York City-born Hawk grew up in a stylish household — her mother was a buyer at Bloomingdale's, while her father worked in merchandising for Barney's. She was also precocious, having entered high school at age 12, then starting at SUNY Purchase's art program at age 16. But it was acting that motivated her, and inspired a cross-country move to Hollywood. It was there, while padding her IMDb page with starring and supporting roles on screens of all sizes, that she became an avid jewelry collector. As her collection grew, so too did her curiosity. "You can't help but learn about the jewelry that you purchase," she says. "And as I learned more, I got more into ordering custom pieces." Hawk began receiving more praise for the pieces she designed than the ones she purchased, and saw an opportunity. "It was like a sign that I should do this," she says. Initially, she considered trying to team up with a well-known brand. However, "I remember once meeting with a publicist who told me that she didn't think I was famous enough for any brands to collaborate with — so I created my own," she says. "Sometimes it takes those kinds of discouraging conversations to open up doors to even greater encouragement from the world." [Related: How a Beloved Father's Passing Inspired a Daughter's Sweet Jewelry Business] She launched in November 2015 using money earned from her acting career as startup funding, and decided to forge relationships with celebrity stylists as a way to get her foot in the door with top-tier clients. Of course, she didn't think she'd get her first break from longtime Madonna stylist Bea Åkerlund. But "at the time I was starting up, [Åkerlund] was creating her own … showroom with brands and items she liked." Not only was the timing right, but the location as well — that showroom was in the building Hawk had just moved into. Wasting no time, she loaded her jewelry onto a cart and brought the lot to her new neighbor for consideration. It worked — Madonna was H.Crowne's first client. Remaining Open to PossibilitiesHer eye-grabbing crowns and other jewels quickly caught the eye of other A-listers. But maintaining customers at that level of prominence required more than coincidences, Hawk says. "If you have a vision, you have to give it everything you have," she notes. (Article continues below image.) In the beginning, she ensured the level of quality she wanted by hand-making items herself. But as demand grew — significantly and quickly, she recalls, thanks to the high-profile exposure — she knew she would need to shift gears. She began searching for manufacturers who could make the items to her specifications. After finding the right makers and adjusting prices to cover the cost of manufacturing, she was able to scale up and accommodate a broader range of clients. Each step forward, however, came with feelings of fear. In fact, she says that was her biggest challenge of all — letting go of that fear. Hawk likened running her business to having a child. "You bring them into the world, you try to navigate a way for luck to happen. You can try to control that. But … if you put real energy, time and focus into what you're doing, it's going to happen — you don't have to control every element, every step." She's carrying that confidence with her as she contemplates H.Crowne's next steps — including expanding her new subscription box service and, further down the road, bringing on some of the investors she is presently meeting with, whom she hopes can both advise and fund future growth. "Even though I'm on an entrepreneurial journey, being in the fashion business and making accessories for people, it's a spiritual thing," she says. "Everyone talks about faith — you need to have it." |
