L’Officiel Paris magazine is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year. To commemorate the event, Beyonce has participated in an African-themed photoshoot for the publication’s March 2011 cover. Inside, B was seen decorated in a traditional African theme headdress, as well as blackface, in a tribute to African activist and musician, Fela Kuti.
