“I’m A Grown Woman…and I can do what ever I want!”

Famed for her luscious long locs, Beyonce took to Instagram today to showcase a bold new look.

Jason Derulo is looking to make quite the splash with his third studio album, ‘Tattoos’.

Arriving in stores on October 8th, the LP has been paired with an eye-catching cover – revealed moments ago.
