Beyoncé casts model with muscular dystrophy for new merchandise range
Fresher than you.
Beyoncé has cast a model and fashion blogger with muscular dystrophy as one of the new faces of her online store.
Jillian Mercado has been chosen to model products for Beyoncé’s new line of merchandise, which includes t-shirts, hats and sweaters inspired by lyrics from the pop star’s recent ‘Formation’ single.
Mercado, who has been represented by IMG Models since last year, announced the news via her Instagram account on Wednesday (March 16) and the images can now be seen on Beyoncé’s site.
A new Beyoncé album is expected in April.
