To celebrate its 65th anniversary issue and icons of the past and present, EBONY magazine chose folks like Usher to channel Sammy Davis Jr. for its latest issue. Inside, check out the icon pics of Jurnee Smollett, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and Regina King channel other icons. Plus, listen to Rihanna and Drake’s much-anticipated collabo…

Inside EBONY’s 65th anniversary, they’ve lined up a nice set of tribute photos of Diana Ross, Duke Ellington, Sidney Poitier, Diahann Carroll and Shaft having them re-created by artists of today, like Mary J. Blige, John Legend, Blair Underwood, Taraji P. Henson and Lamman Rucker respectively.

Usher channeled Sammy Davis Jr. and I am feeling his recreation. Looks like he even squinted that left eye to give one of Sammy’s signature faces.
