Beyonce has just been named People Magazine’s Most Beautiful Woman!

Not only is Beyonce one of pop and R&B’s biggest stars, she is style icon and new mom.

The mother of Blue Ivy Carter tells PEOPLE “I feel more beautiful than I’ve ever felt because I’ve given birth.”

“I have never felt so connected, never felt like I had such a purpose on this earth,” she adds.

And although the beauty is loving motherhood alongside her husband Jay-Z, she is also getting ready to start performing again!

She’s got her pre-pregnancy body back and now she is set to take the stage Memorial Day weekend in Atlantic City.

The 16-time Grammy award winner follows in the footsteps of past winners such as Michelle Pfeiffer, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson and Jennifer Lopez.

Congrats Beyonce the world is basking in your beauty today!
