B News : Beyoncé Thanks NYABJ; Receives Award for "Eat, Play Love" Cover Story


After a world-wind world tour -- I Am and promoting her record breaking Grammy award winning album -- I Am... Sasha Fierce, B took nine months off to live life and get rejuvenated.


When she returned, she wrote about her hiatus in an Essence Cover story called, Eat, Play, Love! --the article documented her break in her own words.

Now that cover story has won her an NYABJ award:
