Teyana Taylor, 32, rocked a strappy, cleavage-baring black crop top as she visited the CBS Morning Show on Wednesday.
The multi-talented singer, actress, dancer and choreographer wore a black bandeau-style top with thin straps that crisscrossed across her incredibly taut and toned abs.
The Coming 2 America star – who took her kids with her to the Sundance Film Festival for her new film’s premiere – paired the crop top with a pair of black pants that gave the appearance of being unbuttoned.
She topped the look off with a floor-grazing black coat and a stunning bejeweled necklace.
To glam it up even more, the Teyana and Iman star’s makeup featured smoky eyes and lush berry colored lipstick.

The actress’ career is about to level up in a major way.
She stars in the upcoming film A Thousand and One, due out Friday, and is already garnering early talks of being an Oscar contender for her performance.
The film is about Iman, a young woman who just got out of prison and seeks to reestablish a relationship with her son Terry, and takes him from foster care without the permission of the authorities.
‘The synopsis of what the story stood for was enough for me. And, of course, you know, Inez being a Harlem girl and I’m a Harlem girl,’ Teyana told CNN.
‘What this role meant to me and the women in my life and the women all around the world, it was something that I wanted to take on.’
The film won the grand jury prize at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.
And about that early Oscar buzz, Teyana said: ‘To go from just sitting at home watching the Oscars to being in Oscar-type conversations, of course, is an honor. I would be grateful even with just a nomination. That’s big.’
When the mom of two filmed the movie, she was just six months out from giving birth to her daughter Rue Rose, who is now two.

Honored: What this role meant to me and the women in my life and the women all around the world, it was something that I wanted to take on,’ she said about her role
‘Keeping Inez and all that trauma on set and then coming home and flipping the switch and being supermom was definitely challenging,’ she said.
‘I was dealing with postpartum and also dealing with the death of a lot of my friends and some family members while filming in Harlem,’ she revealed.
‘Having to go to funerals during my lunch break was a lot, you know? But I was able to put all of that emotion and all of my mourning into Inez as she was dealing with a lot of things and a lot of losses in her life.’
Teyana also shares daughter Iman ‘Junie’ Jr., seven, with her husband, basketball player Iman Shumpert.

The couple, who have been married since 2016, have documented their family life on the reality shows Teyana and Iman and on E!’s We Got Love Teyana & Iman.
‘My baby, Rue, she took her first crawl on camera. And Junie, her first day back to school,’ she told Maxim ahead of her latest show’s premiere in 2021.
And the super mom even misses her girls when she and her husband get a rare night out alone.
At the 2021 Met Gala, Taylor admitted she was enjoying a night out on her own, but her babies weren’t far away.
‘It ain’t hard. They’re at the hotel. I take my babies with me everywhere. Junie is a little stalker. She’s like, “Can I get in the bed with you?” So much personality, so much magic. I’m like, “Okay, girl,”‘ she told Keke Palmer on the red carpet via People.
