Monica Is Basking In A Newly Single Glow, And It Looks Amazing On Her

The singer has kept her joy and it shows.
Monica Looks Stunning Following Her Divorce
By Shalwah Evans · Updated December 6, 2020

Divorce’s can be tough, and it was no different for Monica when she split from her husband of nine years, Shannon Brown. But the “So Gone” singer isn’t letting it get her down. Since finalizing her divorce last month, Monica has been living her best life and looking incredible while doing it.

She even posted a series of seemingly nude photos of herself with perfectly coiffed finger waves and glowing skin. And in one of the posts she wrote, “New beginnings required shedding it all.” Well whatever grew back in its place is complementing her swag, because her skin looks immaculate.

Article continues after video.

But Monica as an indomitable beauty is nothing new. Since hitting the scene as a teenager back in 1995, she’s been a main fixture on red carpets, never missing a beat with her impressive hair, makeup, and style. She’s a constant mention when it comes to beauties that slay short ‘dos, as her gorgeous pixie has almost become a signature look for her. And she is a hair chameleon that knows what colors and styles suit her face.

We’re happy that she’s holding on to her joy, and showing ladies that the single life can look just as stunning as you decide it should.
