US singer/songwriter Beyonce arrives for the world premiere of Disney's "The Lion King" at the Dolby theatre on July 9, 2019 in Hollywood.
There are few people in history that are known by one name. Prince, Drake, Oprah and Rihanna are a few of the names that come to mind. However, one has a fan base, music catalog and respect from her peers that is simply unmatched. Her name is Beyoncé Giselle Knowles Carter, but most people just call her Beyoncé. For years, she's dominated pop culture and built herself up into the superstar that she is today. From music to business, anything the Houston native touches turns to gold. That is exactly why fans began to freak out when Adidas sent out a cryptic tweet regarding the singer's fashion imprint, Ivy Park. Without indicating what would be released, the athletic brand said that something was "coming soon" along with an image of a home gym setup.
It's easy to see that anything Beyoncé touches will get the people going. Even celebrities wait patiently at home to see if they'll get a special box sent from Queen B. Yara Shahidi, Laverne Cox, Kelly Rowland and Janelle Monae were all spotted rocking pieces from the last drop. This time around, she'll look to go even bigger.
It is also to point out that this year marks the fifth anniversary of the brand's initial release. In 2016, she partnered with Topshop to bring the brand to several in-store and online retailers. The music superstar also covered Elle Magazine and spoke about the meaning behind the name, Ivy Park.
"I would wake up in the morning, and my dad would come knocking at my door, telling me it's time to go running. I remember wanting to stop, but I would push myself to keep going. It taught me discipline. And I would think about my dreams. I would think about the sacrifices my parents made for me. I would think about my little sister and how I was her hero," she said.
"I would look at the beauty around me, the sun shining through the trees. I would keep breathing. There are things I'm still afraid of. When I have to conquer those things, I still go back to that park. Before I hit the stage, I go back to that park. When it was time for me to give birth, I went back to that park. The park became a state of mind. The park became my strength. The park is what made me who I am. Where's your park?
Are you ready for the next Ivy Park release?
