Janelle Monáe is baring it all. Her latest album, The Age Of Pleasure features her more in touch with her sexuality than ever before, and as she’s been promoting the album, she’s been seen flashing her fans, notably with the vinyl album itself, which contains a foldout picture of her breasts.

Last night (June 30), at Essence Festival in New Orleans, Monae gave a performance of all of her hits from over the years, including her 2015 Jidenna collaboration, “Yoga.”

The song contains the line “You cannot police me, so get off my areola,” which has become one of Monáe’s signature lyrics. During this particular portion of the song, Monáe lifted up the right side of her bikini top, flashing her breast to the audience. Her nipple was covered with a pink sticker, but nevertheless, stirred up fans throughout the festival.

This exuberant move was met with cheers and support from the audience, who were all on board with the sense of liberation she’s tapped into during this album era.

You can see a clip from Monáe’s Essence Festival performance above.

Janelle Monáe is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Asake’s ‘Yoga’ Session Is Rooted In Spiritual Enlightenment, Seen In A New Video Starring Alexis Skyy

by

Nigerian music star Asake is back and is using his music to search for spiritual security.

The musician saw a great deal of success last year thanks to his breakout album, Mr. Money With The Vibe, released in September. The 12-track project donated the charts resulting in several sold-out shows. Unfortunately, in December, at one of his sold-out shows at the O2 Academy Brixton, fans rushed the barricades, which resulted in two deaths and several dozen injuries.

Shortly after, Asake took to Twitter to address the tragedy, and his new single, “Yoga,” produced by Magicsticks, is a visual continuation of that search. Directed by TG Omori, Asake explores Dakar, Senegal for much-needed tranquility as reality TV figure Alexis Skyy serves as a trusted champion.

In a statement, discussing the inspiration behind the track, Asake said, “[Yoga] is about minding my business and guarding my peace so no one can disrupt it.”

This isn’t the first time Asake’s spiritual journey has been the center of his art or even a post featured on his social media profiles. On New Year’s Eve, he wrote on Twitter, “Too many ups and downs, trials, and tribulations, but God is forever the greatest. Thanks to everyone who made 2022 awesome for me, Words can’t explain. May God bless 2023 for us. Blessings and Glory.”

Cara Delevingne Shows Off Her Naked Yoga Session On IG

In the latter half of 2022, many social media users couldn’t help but take notice of the concerning headlines following Cara Delevingne. In September, a video of the model acting erratically surfaced online, causing friends and fans to express their concerns. Specifically, some were worrying that she may be abusing drugs, causing her to act oddly.

At the time, reports came out claiming the 30-year-old’s friends were “desperate” to get her into rehab. Her close pal, Barbie star Margot Robbie was crying while leaving the beauty’s residence in the fall. According to an insider, there was a “good reason” for her emotional outburst.

In the following months, the foreigner took part in various overseas events, including the Cannes Film Festival. Additionally, she made a noteworthy appearance in Rihanna’s annual Savage X Fenty fashion show.

For that, Delevingne donned a flowing cobalt blue top on the red carpet, paired with black mini shorts. The real magic, though, came when she took to the stage in the Bad Gal’s famous lingerie brand.

It seems that walking the runway once again has helped the Paper Towns actress gain her confidence back. To kick off the new year, she shared a sultry snap on her Instagram Story. It was taken from the confines of a cozy-but-snowy cabin.

In the image, a nude body poses in a perfect headstand. The face remains anonymous due to the furniture. However, fans have pointed out that the tattoos on the figure’s ribs obviously match Delevingne’s.

The photo is likely to raise some eyebrows. Thankfully, they’ll be far less dramatic than those concerned about her 2022 antics. Elsewhere on her profile, she let followers know that she’s been having fun axe throwing and galivanting in the snow as well.
