Beyonce is Seventeen’s Style Star of the Year

Beyonce is Seventeen’s Style Star of the Year

Beyonce dazzles in an exquisite burgundy silk dress Jean Paul Gaultier dress with a quilted bodice at the unveiling of Seventeen Magazine’s 2008 Style Star of the Year at New York City’s Hearst Tower on Wednesday.

The Sasha Fierce singer, who finished off her look with nude Stuart Weitzman gladiators, opened up to the mag about why she felt now was the right time to marry Jay-Z: “I was 18 when we first met, 19 when we first started dating. There was no rush – no one expected me to run off and get married. I really don’t believe that you will love the same thing when you’re 20 as you do at 30. So that was my rule: Before the age of 25, I would never get married. I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself, and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someone else.”

OK, I like Beyonce, but why is she in Seventeen Magazine? Hello!! I’m getting so tired of seeing woman in their 20’s/30’s on the cover of these Tween magazines. Oh, let’s not discuss that bee’s nest she has on top of her head. AWFUL!

YOu know that certain things are just paid for and this title is one, she should not get style star of the year, riri, carrie underwood anyone who has actually had some style this year!! Come on people are you serious, and the hair isn’t cute!!!

i really commend her for encouraging girls to wait to get married….people forget that marriage is forever and when your 19 ,20 yrs old you have no idea who you are or what you want…so why make such a huge commitment?

i agree, she doesn’t really deserve style star of the year but i do like some of her clothes. this dress is nice. the color is ok but the design is cool … i think kira plastinina designed it. anyway congrats b!

i think they mean it more someone who can inspire teenage girls these days. Which she is the perfect role model for. Beautiful in her normal healthy body, smart and succesful.

i love bey and all that she represents, including her great style

I hope instead of paying attention to what she has on, PLEASE pay attention to what was said of her about marriage. It’s so true cause relationships are up and down.. GOOD JOB MRS. CARTER…

That statement right there got her some more goody points from me and for that I will excuse her hair.

Someone said it used to be better, I like the straight look but this so called bee-hive is starting to get on my nerves..

But it does not take away from her natural beauty..

beautiful , sexi woman

TO EVERYONE COMMENTING ON HER HAIR - IT’S 35 DEGREES IN NYC AND WINDY AS HECK. SHE LOOKED FRESH AND BEAUTIFUL THOUGH.

Now this is an inspiration for young women to follow. She looks beautiful young and fresh. SHE APPEALS TO TWEENS WHICH IS WHY SHE’S ON THE MAG. I’M A TWEEN AND PURCHASED 2 COPIES OF HER C.D. BECAUSE IT’S FABULOUS!

Hope you guys got her c.d. because it’s tight!

Beyonce is winning. Love her statement for young girls here and loved her statement on Oprah:

“YOU HAVE TO HAVE YOUR OWN LIFE BEFORE YOU’RE SOMEONE ELSE’S WIFE”

And who said this girl isn’t smart…

What happened to her hair?

She is amazing!! She definetely deserved that title.. she is an inspiration to all of us!

Such a classy and beautiful lady. Love everything about her.

To Ciara

First of all Rihanna Tried so much to get out of Beyonce’s shadow she almost became a dude. This New haircut Rihanna is not her it is a celebrity make up of what the studio thinks she should look like.
Ritardanna can’t even sing.
Beyonce rocks and her new album is amazing!!!!!!

AGREE ” MARIA ( SHORTY )”….Tween’s and teen’s need to get the cover……About her hair?….Amy Whinyhouse styled it for her…..can’t you tell?……Left that way for very long, you could get a wren to nest in it….

Why is she channeling the 90’s hair look lately?

I loved what she had to say, she’s a smart woman!

Beyonce looks yummy here! I am buying my album today!

Can’t the hair, makeup and magazine people find a better spokesperson than beyonce. I think someone should make her go back to school and teach her some ******* english. I hate listening to her speak because she sounds like an illiterate idiot.

BRENDA - IN SOUTHERN STATES AND OTHER PARTS OF THE NON-PROPER ENGLISH SPEAKING WORLD FIND YOUR LANGUAGE AND PRONUNCIATION ILLITERATE.

BEYONCE USED TO BE NERVOUS WHICH IS WHY IF ANYTHING SHE CAME OFF AS NOT A GOOD PUBLIC SPEAKER, BUT SHE’S VERY COMFORTABLE NOW AND WELL SPOKEN.

DON’T GET IT TWISTED YOU HAVE SOME OF THE SMARTEST PEOPLE TO COME FROM A SOUTHERN STATE THAT’S RUNNING THIS COUNTRY AND WHATEVER YOU’RE DOING IN YOUR LIFE.
