Happy birthday in advance to Loreal Sarkisian, the fashion genius! Now that she’s returned from Paris after a substantial Fashion Week event, she’s chilling as she puts on her celebratory hat in the days leading up to her big day. And she’s making sure she’s losing nothing on her first birthday away from her ex-husband Steve Sarkisian.

8x Grammy Award winner Usher brought his Past Present Future tour to Austin Texas on October 8. Loreal Sarkisian didn’t miss out on this big event as she posted about her attendance at the huge concert at Moody Center. In her IG story, she made a collage of the stage with the picture of Usher on the screen with the caption, “What better way to kick off my Birthday!”

The fashion mogul will be turning 39 on October 12 and she’s already making the days count. In her second clip, she posted a live performance by Usher with the caption, “Fun fact: I know every single Word to this song.” She deserves to have this premium entertainment after her hectic schedule lately. 

Before the regular season kickoff, Loreal Sarkisian and Steve Sarkisian amicably parted ways. Since then, the wardrobe stylist has been open about her self-care journey as she pursued what she loves best – fashion. After attending the Paris Fashion Week, Loreal cemented herself in the glamor industry with a huge collaboration with the $167.5M designer brand Balmain. She’ll be celebrating her birthday just a day before her ex-husband gears the Longhorns for an SEC battle with No. 18 Oklahoma. 

Steve Sarkisian gears up for Red River Rivalry matchup

Will Steve Sarkisian wish his ex-wife on her birthday? Will Loreal make time to cheer for Texas in their Red River Rivalry game just as she does, even after their divorce? The Longhorns still remain untouched through Week 6 regaining their No. 1 spot from Alabama as the nation’s top CFB team. But their emotions will go through a test in the upcoming game against the Sooners. 

Interestingly, Oklahoma is the only team that handed them a regular season defeat last season. Ahead of the game, Steve Sarkisian stressed the importance of not making emotional blunders, saying, “The key is not to cross over that threshold where we get emotional.” Texas will enter the game as a 14.5-point favorite but as the HC said, “It’s a rivalry game. Forget whatever we’re favored by or we’re not, it doesn’t matter. Records and things don’t matter in games like this.” Cotton Bowl will see intense action on October 13. Be there to support your team!
