Last night I spoke with R&B Diva who just landed in snowy Dallas from the sunny west coast where she filmed her new video for her hit single “Everything To Me”. Mo was shocked to hear that one of her favorite fashion designers committed suicide yesterday. She immediately dedicated her video to the iconic designer.
Mo sent over these pics of the beautiful Alexander McQueen fashions she wore in her new video.
McQueen was found hanged in his London flat yesterday morning. He was despondent over the passing of his mother the week before. Her funeral was set for today.
Monica writes:
The video is a take of the movie “Obsessed”. It takes lots of different turns as you see me attempt to protect my family throughout the video. Today was however bittersweet. All of the clothing was made by the amazing Alexander Mcqueen, and learning of his death was heart wrenching. My stylist Marni and I were devastated. I dedicate this video to him, and his beautiful visions that helped us to achieve all we wanted and more. Life is short. We must all enjoy each moment.

On the set of Monica’s new video “Everything To Me”
J Records artist Monica was in Los Angeles earlier this week to shoot the video to her chart-climbing single “Everything To Me” from her new album Still Standing (set for March 23rd release). Fabulously dressed in a stunning Alexander McQueen blouse and gown, Monica takes a star-turning role in the drama-filled clip directed by Benny Boom.
Cincinnati Bengals wide-receiver & Twitter star Chad Ochocinco (aka “Ocho Cinco”) plays Monica’s love interest.

Me neither. I feel so out of the loop. My readers are supposed to keep me up-to-date on these things.
Hmmm…The video is a take on the movie “Obsessed”. Is that the movie that Beyonces’ in? Let’s see what Sandra has to say about this.
Love that black and white get-up! That has my name all over it!!!!
Good Morning SR Fam
Hey Florida *passing you some cafe con leche

If it was Looney Tunes or the old Hanna Barbera cartoons I would be on the couch glued to the tube with the kids but these new ones work my nerves.
Give me some Yogi Bear,Huckleberry Hound, Scooby and Bugs/Roadrunner and I’m happy
Her cd is going to be a banger! I love her hair.
why is she doing at take on a Beyonce movie? When will these other singers learn? thats why Bey stays on top
Looks like a great video…luv me some Mo when she’s at her best *back to lurking*
@ Sandra
I can’t believe you have not heard of Alexander McQueen. He’s the one that keeps your girlfriend Rihanna fresh!!!!
Monica pulled off Alexander McQueen’s avant garde look amazingly well. And I am loving her hair and makeup.

@ Tex and Flo, The Penguins of Madagscar is my sh!t, they are having a marathon on Monday on Nick and I’m off so it is going down.

But its the sweeties bday, so I think we’re gonna be up and at ’em
Ooh and I LOVE the penguins of Madagascar
I like the single….I like the look. can’t wait to see the video. Monica has always had a great voice. Song choices on albums were always questionable for me but I’ll support her.
Alexander McQueen was a great designer. May he RIP
I hope the video makes the song blow up, I would love to see Monica shut up all the naysayers.
She should definitely look to modeling.
@nika and Florida
Now, I can hang with the Penguins of Madagascar, those fools are funny as heck, they remind me of Looney tunes with all the smacking and smart azz’ness
Good Morning all!!!!!
Love, Love that blouse and gown…
monica looks soo gorgeous…oh my she is such a beautiful, yes classy lady..that dress and that top are just devine..i liked mr mcqueen’s stuff..he was def talented..such a shame he took his own life!!!
Monica should consider modeling. She is very pretty.
Love Chad Ochocinco… YUM
Love this song! Now that’s what I call music! It has a nice old-school feel to it and substance. Not all about sex, just pure love. Monica is so classy and talented. Loves it!!
Monica is always so flawless! I’m such a fan.
The song is nice. I like chad,he’s very entertaining on Twitter
She is a VERY beautiful woman, both inside and out. The stars seem to be aligning for her this time around. Much success
Team Monica
Wow, Monica looks beautiful. I luv that MJ shirt.
Sad story though.
@Free I didnt know who he was either. I googled him thinking he was an actor that I just couldnt place or something.
Go Monica she is so real and down to earth. Met her in Lenox Mall last year and she took pics and signed autograph for my son who is 18 and he is in heaven cuz she is da only singer he really listens to besides da rap shish. Can’t wait for da cd will have to buy 3,(one for son,one for car and one for home) Team MONICA!!!!

Absolutely stunning…can’t wait for the video

O and Chad can so get it like Maxwell say: Whereever, Whenever, Whatever!!
Totally Awesome Monica! Love the song and I look forward to seeing the video.
I
Monica! She looks great! I wish her the best with her comeback…I’ll be supporting her!
Go Monica!
I heard of Alexander McQueen, but I didn’t follow him or his clothing line closely. I really like the black & white outfit. I also like the style cut of the dress, but not the fabric.
Since Monica came I out, I loved her style and continue to love her style. I thought she looked a little too grown to be rocking the short do at 15, but she was probably an old soul even back then.
Her stylist Marni does a great job picking out Monica’s fits.
Dfinety can’t wait to se the video mo looks hot.
lovely dress indeed
Monica looks great, though I am not feeling her new hair do…it looks ok in the last photo. Such a sad story for this great designer. Monica wears his designs so well in this video. Awww look at Mo with the little girl, I wonder if she wants a girl next.
Sidenote: loving this song, Everything to Me. Glad the label is finally moving forward with the project.
MONICA IS BEAUTIFUL AND SHE IS DOWN TO EARTH #TEAMMONICA
MO u look beautiful in these shots! Go Gurrrrrrrrl! Lovin’ thee haaairrrrrr! & I’m not sure of the proper/technical for that black/white top….FIYAH!
MONICA IS ONE OF THE REALIST IN THE INDUSTRY!!!
