LeToya Luckett's Displays Fierce New Cut for the Summer
ESSENCE.com:
LeToya Luckett is getting summertime fly a few months early.
The R&B diva, who wrapped the first season of her latest television venture "Here We Go Again" last month, has been keeping busy as the summer season nears. Never one to stray too far away from her musical roots, LeToya hinted at a new album in the works back in 2014 before going on to release 2 new singles shortly after. In 2015, she lent her vocal skills to a socially-conscious track titled "Together," which addressed the police brutality and gun violence epidemic in the U.S. Later in 2015, the former Destiny's Child member put her own spin on Big Sean's hit single "Blessings" with a remix titled "Blessed."
Although she certainly has her hands full with her career, LeToya is never too busy to smile for the camera and show off her latest look. She's known for switching things up in the style department and being able to pull off nearly any look and her most recent hairstyle switch up is living proof.
LeToya took to her personal Instagram page earlier this week to show off her new, super-short haircut and as you might imagine, it's fierce.
She later thanked talented celebrity hairstylist Larry Sims for her new look, which is sure to be perfect for the warmer weather that's just around the corner. As for LeToya, she slays, all day....and we love it.
