Janelle Monae has been selected as the new face of Cover Girl!

R&B fans can now catch the gorgeous face of Janelle Monáe on CoverGirl advertisements alongside Pink, Taylor Swift, Drew Barrymore, Sofia Vergara and Ellen De Generes.

The 26 year-old star tweeted “I’m strong. I’m beautiful. I AM A COVERGIRL!!!!”

Monáe told Vogue magazine,

Growing up and trying to find myself as a woman and experimenting with makeup, I’d go buy magazines. I’d see Tyra Banks [in the CoverGirl ads] and I’d think, Wow, she’s beautiful. It never looked like she had on too much makeup. There was just something clean and classic about her face.”

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. “One of my core values is to help redefine what it means to be a strong and beautiful woman in the music and fashion worlds and to empower the wonderful things that make us unique.

“Becoming a CoverGirl is truly an honor and a gift. It opens up a new platform for me to inspire women to feel stronger, braver and more beautiful inside and out.”
