Here’s what’s perking us up on this Monday morning:

A Houston, Texas radio station is switching from an all-news format to playing nothing but Beyoncé’s music. That’s right! Twenty-four hours of nothing but Mrs. Carter. A statement from News92 said that the move was due to “sustained poor ratings performance and significant financial losses.” Cathy Hughes’ Radio One owns the station. [Billboard]

John Legend and Pharrell have earned five American Music Award nods. Beyoncé follows closely behind with three nominations. [PEOPLE]

To Spanx or not to Spanx, that is the question. First Lady Michelle Obama says she wears her Spanx “with pride.” Am I the only one who suddenly doesn’t feel so bad about my shapewear? [US Weekly]

The LeBron James-produced Starz drama Survivors Remorse is coming back for season two. [The Grio]

It looks like Wiz Khalifa has already moved on from Amber Rose [insert side-eye]. The rapper was photographed entering a Los Angeles club hand-in-hand with a woman. [Necole Bitchie]
