Yes yes, top “It” chick Beyonce will accept her award today in New York for “Woman of the Year.” The award will be given at Billboard’s Women in Music Brunch, recognizing the top 30 women in the music biz.

“Take it to another level, no passengers on [her] plaaaannnneee”

Gooo Bey! Bill Werde, Billboard editorial director, had this to say…

“Beyoncé is a multiplatinum artist and a multitalented woman who clearly embodies the qualities of excellence and achievement that the Billboard Woman of the Year Award was created to honor. She has not only influenced pop culture with her hit songs and her signature dance moves, but has inspired women everywhere with her unique style, business savvy and dedication to charitable causes.”

Whether you love her or hate her, give props where props are due. The chick works hard for hers, raking in more than her dear ol’ hubby last year, so….don’t hate, just step your game up as well. ‘Grats Bey!

Dr. Dara P. Richardson-Heron is the CEO of the Susan G. Komen Foundation of Greater NYC. She was interviewed by Al Roker because on Sunday, September 13th at 9 a.m., the 5K Run/Walk Race for the Cure will take place. During the interview she seemed very chic (her pearl necklace and earring helped *love*), confident, and smart with a little sense of humor to tie it all together. So, of course I had to get my google on!

Dr. Richardson-Heron was formerly a chief medical officer and assistant executive director of United Cerebal Palsy of New York. She holds a “bachelors degree in biology from Barnard College, a doctorate of medicine from New York University School of Medicine, medical review officer certification from the American College of Occupational Medicine and a human resources management certificate from the University of Michigan.” (1) *take that* She also was voted in the 25 Influential Black Women in Business Class of 2004. You can check out more information on Dr. Richardson-Heron here or better yet, if you can, make a donation on the Komen NYC website. Video of “The Today Show” interview posted below…
