"  It&amp;#039;s been a few months since Queen Bey&amp;#039;s glorious visage appeared on a glossy magazine, but thanks to Out, the drought is finally over. Beyonc\u00E9 fronts the mag&amp;#039;s May issue, which features the sole cover line, &amp;quot;POWER,&amp;quot; because Beyonc\u00E9. Shot by Santiago &amp;amp;amp; Mauricio, Bey is styled like Marylin Monroe with platinum bedhead, sultry makeup, pearls, and nearly nothing else. In the interview, Beyonc\u00E9 talks about the more overt sexiness of her new album, and the message of confidence she&amp;#039;s trying to send to women, touching on that &amp;quot;power&amp;quot; headline: &amp;quot;There is unbelievable power in ownership, and women should own their sexuality. There is a double standard when it comes to sexuality that still persists. Men are free and women are not,&amp;quot; She says. &amp;quot;You can be a businesswoman, a mother, an artist, and a feminist\u2014whatever you want to be\u2014and still be a sexual being. It&amp;#039;s not mutually exclusive.&amp;quot; She also reveals that that super hot raspiness on her single &amp;quot;XO&amp;quot; was au natural and completely unintentional: &amp;quot;When I recorded &amp;quot;XO&amp;quot; I was sick with a bad sinus infection. I recorded it in a few minutes just as a demo and decided to keep the vocals... I really loved the imperfections, so I kept the original demos.&amp;quot; Sigh. Even when she has a sinus infection, Beyonc\u00E9 still runs the world. Photos: Courtesy of &amp;#039;Out&amp;#039; Magazine "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
