AceShowbiz - Teyana Taylor heats up the newest edition of Paper magazine. The singer leaves very little to the imagination as she poses in various states of undress for the publication's Living for Fashion October issue.
Taylor, who goes bottomless on the magazine's cover, strips down to almost nothing in another snap. Rocking red hair, she only wears a pair of plastic thigh-high boots while closing her eyes and covering he private parts with her hands.
Another photo shows her joined by her daughter Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr., whom she shares with her NBA star husband Iman Shumpert. The 25-year-old beauty sports black underwear while happily playing with her little girl, who wears only a red head wrap from her baby head wrap line.
In the accompanying interview, Taylor discusses Kanye West's "Fade" music video which catapulted her to stardom. Released during last August's MTV Video Music Awards, the clip simply features her flaunting her incredible figure in a bra and thong as she dances to the song.
"It was a do-or-die moment where I was like, 'I'm going to dance my f**king heart out,' " she says, adding that she's more proud of her body because she's a mom. "I honestly don't feel like 'Fade' would have had the same effect had I just been 21, hot body, single," she explains. "It was more than just dancing in a sports bra and a thong."
"You can be superwoman. You can have it all, that balance in your relationship, your family and your career. It's the opposite of the cliche that says kids will slow you or your career down," she shares. She even considers her daughter a "good luck charm" for her and her husband.
"She's just been everything," she says. "From the moment I got pregnant with her to the day she was born, it's been all positives, all greatness, all iconic."
