Beyonce Takes Miami With Kelly Rowland While Working on New Album

Beyonce and husband Jay-Z were out and about all over Miami hanging out Kelly Rowland and their other celebrity pals, many of whom will also make an appearance on Bey’s upcoming new studio album.

The ladies of Destiny’s Child have gone separate ways when it comes to their careers, but the R&B divas are still as close as ever.

Queen Bey and Kelly Rowland met up over the weekend to catch a bite to eat along site Jay-Z and producer The Dream.

The four A-list celebs were photographed leaving Soho Beach Club, where other A-listers like Paris Hilton, were also dining inside.

The “ice” songstress had just gotten back to the States from a TW Steel watch launch in Hong Kong, but still made sure she looked fabulous for her dinner date with her BFF.

A simple gray tank top showed off Rowland’s athletic physique and toned arms while the pair of leather black trousers dressed up the look and showed the R&B star’s chic fashion sense. Keeping it simple but sleek, she accessorized with a low hanging gold chain and gold bracelet.

The Dream on the other hand was busy showing team spirit in a Chicago Bulls hat and jacket.

Beyonce, being the huge fashionista that she is, dressed up in a fiery red fitted dress with black sheer sleeves that made us all forget that she gave birth to Blue Ivy not too long ago.

Her curves looked flawless in the ensemble that she then paired with a simple black heel and her usual bun on top of her head.

Husband Jay-Z, who just celebrated his 43 birthday last week, did his best to match his wife’s look with a red Nets hat and chambray shirt with light blue jeans.

The “Motivation” songstress tweeted a few pics from her fun night out with Bey as she took a snap shot of the groups expensive bottle of cognac that Jay-Z endorses with the caption “#D’USSE’… nuff said!!”

The lovely ladies also made sure to make an appearance at Art Basel, the international contemporary art fair which is probably the reason both ladies were in Miami in the first place.

Bey dressed down a bit in an adorable floral print romper with a high bun (this time leaving her bangs out in the front) and some simple but chic nude heels.

The girls playfully took in all the art around them and even took turns pretending to listen for the sounds of the ocean next to a giant sea shell installation.

The “Countdown” songstress and the Nets part owner were also seen courtside once again at the Miami Heat game despite the fact that it wasn’t Jay’s team on the court. More than likely the basketball loving couple came to the game to support LeBron James who is good friends with the “99 Problems” rapper.

The new face of Pepsi was on the edge of her seat the entire game, and once again looking as fashionable as ever in a sheer top, matte gray skinny jeans, and cheetah print Alaia lace-up ankle boots.

Blue Ivy Carter’s mommy definitely made sure to kick back and just have some fun this weekend, but the mother of one has definitely been keeping herself busy.

With performances for both X-Factor and the Superbowl coming up, a new deal that will make her the new face of Pepsi’s “Live for Now” campaign, and an adorable daughter who will be turning one next month the 31-year-old R&B megastar definitely has a full plate, and that’s not even including the fact that she has a new studio album in the works as well.

Several big name artists (as can only be expected) will be working with the new mommy on the album which is sure to soar to #1 on the charts once again.

Hit-Boy, Kanye West, and Ryan Tedder will all be a part of the new album and some rumors are even suggesting that Bey will be teaming up with Justin Timberlake once again.

“She took the summer to start recording, and now she’s in a place where she’s ready to start gearing up to reveal her plan,” The Dream explained. “I’m sure there will probably be a couple records you here before the Super Bowl gets here.”

Perhaps one of the most anticipated partnerships will be with the award winning song writer and R&B crooner, Ne-Yo.

The 30-year-old record producer, dancer, and singer teamed up with Blue Ivy’s mommy to make the hit “Irreplaceable” and the pair is hoping to create another mega hit on the new upcoming album.

 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
