Beyonce cast wheelchair-bound model Jillian Mercado as part of the latest campaign for her merchandise and we have to say she looks so fierce. 

The 28-year-old, who suffers from muscular dystrophy, can be seen modelling hats, jumpers and other items on queen Bey's official website. 

The blogger-turned-model burst onto the fashion last year when she was chosen to star in a Diesel campaign before being signed to IMG models. 

"[My aim is to give] hope to people who are maybe saying, 'My life is over' because they are disabled. You can totally do it, nothing should be stopping you," she said to the Daily Mail. 

"Working with IMG, my goal is to make it so that I am not the model in the wheelchair and I’m just the model. 

"If I can do big shows like Alexander Wang or Chanel and not be seen as the token girl. That goes a long way toward challenging perceptions. 

"There is still so much change that needs to happen, but I want to make way for whoever has that mind-set that I had when I was younger.

"I want the people who were hesitant in pursuing fashion because of the way that people might perceive them to know there is a place for them."

Jillian has landed internships with Allure and Veranda magazine as well as having attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC.

Amber Rose was one of many women who stood up for former rival Kim Kardashian after the nude selfie scandal last week and it seems she is sick of double standards for women in different industries. 

Speaking at SXSW this week, the model stated that she is tired of different rules for different women. 

"It’s bullsh*t, and this is the thing. They come at me and Kim so hard because I was a stripper and she had a sex tape," said the 32-year-old. 

"So if we could sing, it would be OK if we were on stage half-naked. We all love Beyonce, but she’s on stage half-naked and twerking all the time, yet people say, oh, she has talent so she’s able to do that.

We don’t have the talent that Beyonce has, so we get criticised as former sex workers, but at the end of the day we’re just women – we’re all women – and we should all embrace each other. No one is greater. We're all the same."

The star also noted in an interview with Uproxx that she is sick of being defined by her past job as a stripper. 

"She doesn’t understand why Channing Tatum is considered a respectable actor when he’s a former stripper much like Rose," said a source. 

"She points out how everyone mentions her with 'stripper' as a prefix, but Tatum easily slid into respectability with a few semi-serious movie roles.

"I doubt Rose even minds Tatum as a person, for she’s simply weary of the double gender standards."

Love her or hate her, you have to admire her for speaking her mind.

We can't get enough of sassy Blue Ivy and so we were delighted when her superstar mum Beyonce decided to post a rare snap of the child to her Instagram. 

And it seems Blue is a total girly girl through and through as they snap showed her playing around in her Mum's make-up bag. 

The 4-year-old was snapped donning pretty crystals across her forehead, pink lippie and some rather questionable eyeliner (though an admirable attempt for a first try Blue!) 

 

A photo posted by Beyoncé (@beyonce) on

Continue doing you, Blue, is our advice. 

Two hours earlier, Bey posted a snap of herself also working some intense make-up including a gorgeous gold lip a the pair were backstage at a music video shoot, according to the Daily Mail. 

The star also shared snaps from her recent video with Coldplay for the song Hymn for the Weekend.

If you're angered daily by Starbucks getting your name wrong, don't worry, they do it to everyone. 

But one girl thought she'd get one up on them and tell the barista that her name is Beyonce. 

"I told the girl at Starbucks my name is Beyoncé just, like, to be funny and this is what she gave me," Vine user JEWISHJEN said in her video.

"I'm not sure if my tone gave it away or if maybe the barista could have recognised I had been there before, but she just decided to one-up my bitchy-sarcasm with a catty response. I actually thought it was hilarious."

And we did, too. Maybe next time you're in Starbucks try this one out.

We're sure the Irish will have a much more catty response.

Ah, Instagram. This is why we love you.

Move over Beyonce, because your mama Tina Knowles shared a snap on the social media site of herself looking glam AF.

She told her fans along with the photo that she "never liked cheesing," but Tina doesn't need to smile to let us all know how hot she was back in the day.

Beyonce shared a same photo back in 2014 on her mam's birthday, showing us that she's super proud of what her mam gave her.

You slay, Tina. You slay.

They are rarely seen together, in fact the last time all three members of Destiny's Child were together was at the Superbowl half-time show in 2013.

But last night, the gal pals were out in force for Kelly's 35th birthday.

Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams all wore their Sunday best as they posed for pictures in Sunset Tower Hotel, Hollywood.

Also at the birthday gathering was Bey's mother, Tina and her sister Solange as well as PLL star Bianca Lawson and Rob Kardashian's ex Adrienne Bailon.

Kelly shared all the fab snaps on her Instagram page, and we just love seeing the girls let loose and having a good time.

All we're hoping for now is a Destiny's Child world tour. High hopes, we know

Although she didn't walk the red carpet, Beyonce showed up to the Grammys last night to present Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson with the award for Record of the Year.

But Queen Bey didn't show up in any old dress. Nope, the Formation singer donned a white lace bridal gown last night.

Inbal Dror, the designer, is best known for her sexy silhouettes, intricate details and illusion panelling, and Bey's dress did not disappoint.

The bridal gown first debuted on the runway late last year and is part of Inbal's AW16 collection which is available to order through her retailers.

And guess where one of her retailers are located? Ireland, of course.

Yep, SHEmazing! spoke to De Stafford Couture in Howth, Co Dublin who stocks Inbal Dror's dresses, and while the next collection won't be in until autumn, you can ask to order through the shop.

So, if you want to look like the queen of queens on your wedding day, run to Howth. NOW.

Beyonce was undoubtedly the star of the Superbowl half-time show last night. She is Queen Bey, afterall.

But, there was one heart-stopping moment when the queen herself nearly fell over.

But, as it is Beyonce afterall, she proved herself to be the ultimate showgirl by saving a disastrous fall by flipping over in an excellent freestyle dance move.

The mum-of-one was in the middle of an erratic performance when eagle-eyed viewers spotted her stumble as she sang her new song, Formation.

And the little blunder didn't go unnoticed by fans either:

Meanwhile, she also announced a WORLD TOUR this summer, and we're so friggin' excited.

Beyonce is coming to Dublin once more… Now the only question is, who will score tickets?!

The queen of surprise has graced us all with a new song and a brand new video.

Beyonce released the track and accompanying vid just a day before she's set to preform alongside Coldplay at the Superbowl.

What's more, Blue Ivy makes her music video debut and looks SO cute and sassy we can't even deal.

Queen Bey made her song, Formation and video free to stream on Tidal, so watch it NOW.

One thing's for sure though, she certainly knows how to get people talking.

While we are all sitting around waiting for Beyonce to release new music, this may just appease us until we get a hold of her new stuff next month. 

Queen Bey has collaborated with Chris Martin's Coldplay for the undeniably catchy Hymn for the Weekend. 

Our favourite pop star is kitted out in some gorgeous costumes for the video and well she slays it as expected. 

Bey is set to perform with Coldplay during her hotly anticipated Superbowl half-time show taking place in February. 

It hasn't been confirmed whether this is the song that will be performed, but we will hazard a guess that it probably will. 

Watch the super cool video below:

We know Beyonce is releasing music in early 2016. 

And two years after the surprise release of her eponymous fifth album, we know that she is inclined to drop an entire record of new songs and videos with zero notice. 

So to help minimise the total shock of being hit with a total new set of whopper tunes in one go, we're examining all the evidence to figure out exactly WHEN Bey is going to hit us with her music. 

1) February, people 

While no official announcement has been made and no release date has been specified, all media outlets are reporting that the album should be upon us sometime in February.

2) Special super bowl announcement 

The new album may coincide with Beyonce's much anticipated performance at the Super Bowl. 

"Beyonce is ready to drop her album at any time," a source has told the Sun.

"But there’s a very strong chance the announcement could happen during the Super Bowl next month.”

Bey is set to perform with Coldplay during the much coveted half-time show. 

3) She's waiting for Adele fever to die down 

One thing is for sure, Beyonce knows what's up. 

According to the same source, she is waiting for the right time to drop her new tunes and that means waiting for all the hype surrounding Adele's latest release, 25, to die down. 

"[The album] was wrapped up at the end of 2015 but she held off on a release as a code of honour to Adele, so their records didn’t clash."

"Beyonce doesn’t have the pressure of releasing an album and is doing bits here and there because she and her team know it is Adele’s time to shine."

4) It's ready to go 

One thing is for sure, the whole album is completely finished. 

"Beyonce has totally relaxed her schedule and pushed back her album, which is now complete and ready to go,"said the source. 

Just give it to us!

5) No single 

As most musicians hit us with one or two singles a few months before an album releases, the fact that there is pure silence coming from the Beyonce camp has us guessing that this will be a surprise album release like her last one. 

However, there is strong possibility she will sample songs at her Super Bowl show. 

6) New videos 

Beyonce has however been filming music videos. 

French website MCM reported that Beyonce was shooting scenes for a music vid in mid December on a week long shoot. 

The rumours were never substantiated but a French choreographer added fuel to the fire when he posted a casting call for a Beyonce video on his Facebook. 

The post was quickly deleted, but it is safe to say that Bey is about to hit us hard.

We have been hearing a lot of buzz over the last couple of weeks about the hour long Lip Sync Battle special in which Channing Tatum would be taking on his wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum. 

We knew it would be pretty epic, but we definitely were not expecting this. 

As the show aired in the states yesterday, we are now free to revel in the madness as Channing emerges on a horse statue before delving into the much loved choreography for Beyonce's hit song Run the World (Girls). 

And while watching Tatum lip sync to this track with a face full of contour, a full on wig and a questionably short skirt was entertaining enough, the whole crowd and it seems, the entire Internet, flipped out appropriately when Beyonce took to the stage.

And that appropriate reaction was also captured perfectly by Jenna. 

 And the internet agrees. 

While the full video has not been released, you can watch the epic moment she arrives out on stage below.
