Beyoncé will perform at this year’s Brit Awards, it has been confirmed.

James Corden – who will present tonight’s award ceremony for a record fifth time – confirmed that the US superstar will make an appearance on stage.

“There’s this weird thing with this year’s Brits where I’ve been – more than any other year – told things I can’t say,” Corden told BBC Radio 2’s Zoe Ball. “But I figure it’s the day…”

The star then turned to his PR and asked if he could reveal the news, before confirming: “I must be able to tell you? Beyoncé. Beyoncé is performing tonight.

“She’s performing a track she has never ever performed live before. Ever.”

The Brit Awards 2014 will take place at London’s O2 Arena this evening (February 19) and air on ITV from 8pm.

Beyoncé just posted a new remix for “Drunk In Love” featuring the genius rapper Kanye West on her official youtube. Unfortunately it’s just 38 seconds. But the best part is that you can put on repeat!

The “Beyonce” cut is the latest hit fueled by choreographers’ popular online videos.

Two months after Beyoncé dropped her surprise self-titled album, it’s still shaking up the music industry. Two weeks ago, album cut “Partition” reached No. 49 on the Streaming Songs chart with over 1.4 million streams in the U.S, despite the fact that the video (available for purchase with the album) isn’t on Youtube or Vevo, and the audio isn’t available on Spotify, Pandora and other similar services. How is this possible? User-generated Youtube videos, driven by a vibrant community of choreographed dance crews shaking it to the song on camera.

The “Partition” phenomenon is in some ways similar to “Harlem Shake,” the viral, dorm-room dance meme which took Brooklyn DJ-producer Baauer straight to the top of the Hot 100 the week of Feb. 23 thanks to millions of YouTube clicks. However, unlike with “Harlem Shake,” many of the most popular dance videos featuring “Partition” are created by professional choreographers, like Kyle Hanagami, who was inspired by the dance-heavy videos Beyonce included with her album.

If there were a supermodel of the moment, Joan Smalls would certainly be it. She’s the face of Estée Lauder, ranked no. 1 on Models.com and currently holds the no. 8 spot on Forbes’ list of top-earning catwalkers. On top of this, she is also the star of countless editorials and campaigns (currently iCB and Fendi). Not to mention she just snagged Elle‘s January cover, which was considered something of a feat because, well, it’s not often a model — as opposed to a Hollywood starlet du jour — is on the cover of an American magazine.

Lucky for Fashionista, the stunning Smalls sat down for a pre-fashion week chat at the Modellounge x Microsoft space (which, not coincidentally, is the brainchild of her boyfriend, Bernard Smith). Afterward, she was set to hop on a plane to Canada for a quick two-day shoot before returning to New York for runway duty. (Just thinking about her schedule makes us lose our breath!) Read on for her thoughts on models vs. celebs, a little gossip about her good friend Cara Delevingne and, duh, what it was like to work with Beyoncé.

What was it like to work with Beyoncé on the “Yoncé” video?


Wow! Incredible. That woman is someone you can look up to. She’s so professional — so well-rounded and grounded. It just goes to show you that being nice in an industry pays off. She’s so involved when she talks to somebody — and encouraging — so I admire that quality in her. She’s really, really talented, so it’s nice that I have that off my checklist. It’s like Beyoncé video — check!
