2011-11-19T03:56:00.000-08:00

On August 28, 2011 at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, Beyonce Knowles announced that she and Jay-Z are expecting their first child.

Beyonce made the announcement during her red carpet appearance and again at the end of her performance of " Love on Top ". The Huffington Post later confirmed that Knowles is 5 months pregnant and her pregnancy announcement had broken the "most tweets per second recorded for a single event" Twitter record, receiving 8,868 tweets per second.

MTV reported that Beyoncé Knowles ' performance of "Love on Top" and the announcement of her pregnancy at the awards ceremony helped the 2011's MTV Video Music Awards become the most-watched broadcast in MTV history, pulling in 12.4 million viewers. In addition, data from Google Insights showed that the most searched for term from August 29, 2011 to September 4, 2011 was "Beyonce pregnant" which reached 'breakout' levels - a term used by Google to describe a search with an increase of over 5,000 percent.

Beyoncé Knowles ' announcement of her pregnancy resulted in an increase in sales of her records, particularly 4 , which has sold fewer than 700,000 copies as of August 2011.

In October 2011, during an appearance on the Australian television program, Sunday Night, Beyonce Knowles' pregnant belly appeared to collapse inwardly as she sat down on a chair. Following the interview, rumors then began circulating online that Knowles was faking her pregnancy and is actually wearing a prosthetic pregnant belly.

However, Beyoncé Knowles ' representative later issued a statement to ABC News , saying that the rumors are "stupid, ridiculous and false". On October 8, a pre-taped performance of Knowles performing Michael Jackson 's " I Wanna Be Where You Are " was shown at the "Michael Forever" tribute concert at Millenium Stadium in Cardiff , Wales .

Beyonce Knowles pic

During the turmoil of Destiny's Child in 2000, She had admitted in December 2006 that Beyonce Kowles had experienced depression from an accumulation of struggles: the publicized split of LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson, being publicly attacked by the media, critics and blogs for causing the split-up, and a longstanding boyfriend (that Beyonce Knowles had dated from age 12 to 19 years) leaving her.

The depression was so severe it had lasted for a couple of years, while Beyonce Knowles had kept herself in her bedroom for days and refused to eat anything. She stated that she struggled to speak about her depression because Destiny's Child had just won their first Grammy Award and Beyonce Knowles feared no one would take her seriously. All of these events had made her question herself and who her friends were, describing the situation she said, "Now that I was famous, I was afraid I'd never find somebody again to love me for me. I was afraid of making new friends." Beyonce Knowles remembers her mother, Tina Knowles, for finally saying to help her out of her depression, "Why do you think a person wouldn't love you? Don't you know how smart and sweet and beautiful you are?"

Since 2002, She has been in a relationship with rapper Jay-Z, with whom Beyonce Knowles has collaborated several times. Rumors began to circulate about their relationship after Knowles was featured on "'03 Bonnie & Clyde". In spite of persistent rumors about their relationship, they remained discreet about it. In 2005, rumors began to spread about the marriage of the couple. She closed the speculation stating that Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z were not even engaged. When asked again about the subject in September 2007, Jay-Z replied, "One day soon—let's leave it at that." Laura Schreffler, senior writer for OK! magazine, said, "They are intensely private people".

On April 4, 2008, Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z were married in New York City. It became a matter of public record on April 22, 2008, but Beyonce Knowles did not publicly debut Beyonce Knowles wedding ring until the Fashion Rocks concert on September 5, 2008 in New York City. She finally revealed their marriage through an opening montage video at the listening party for I Am... Sasha Fierce in Manhattan's Sony Club.

2010 Grammys: Beyonce Knowles vs Taylor Swift.. Women Dominate at the 2010 Grammy Awards - Jan 31, 2010 -

Beyoncé makes Grammy history with six wins, although Taylor Swift nabs the top prize

The 52nd annual Grammy Awards were up against the Pro Bowl, and for once, the show actually had some great, football-style twists and turns. Taylor Swift started the evening as a consensus pick, and won three country awards to start things off. Then she proceeded to miss out on every pop award she was up for, including two key losses to most-nominated Beyonce. The Swift fans were packing up and heading home, when... There's a fumble on the field, and flowing blonde locks in the end zone! Swift closed the show by becoming the youngest artist ever to win Album of the Year. .

Yes, it was the Heidi Game of Grammy telecasts. But the voters were into sharing the wealth. We'll spread some, too, with our own post-show kudos:.

LEAST NOTICEABLE BIG WINNER.

You'd hardly know Beyonce walked away with six Grammys, the most ever by a female artist in one night. Only two of them were presented on the telecast, and in an example of bad traffic control, she couldn't accept one of those—for Song of the Year ("Single Ladies")—because she was about to perform a major production number. The choice to sacrifice her possible acceptance speech for that was good a piece of evidence as any that performances trump trophies on all musical awards shows now

Beyonce-Conception I Am… Sasha Fierce

2009-08-18T20:51:00.000-07:00

"Beyonce-Conception I Am… Sasha Fierce"

Beyonce Knowles worked on the album for nearly a year, longer than Beyonce had spent on her previous solo albums and records with former group Destiny's Child. She revealed that she had co-written and co-produced over seventy songs. In a statement released on Knowles' official website, she wrote:

"I am in a different place right now and I wanted people to see the many sides of me. The music is upbeat for the dance, fun side and it is reflective, passionate and serious for the personal side. I have taken risks here. I am not afraid and my music will explain it all. There is no label or tag on my sound. It's me and I am so excited to share it with the world on November 18."

Beyonce Knowles' father-manager, Mathew, explained the two-disc album, saying, "Beyoncé was adamant—and she has complete creative control—about dividing her songs. She felt she couldn't mix the songs together. She's in a much different space now than she was one year ago. She's married and in a really good place and this album reflects that." Sessions with producers Timbaland-protégé Danjahandz and The Neptunes were also said to take place, but their records did not make the final cut.

Sasha Fierce

The album formally introduces Knowles' alter-ego Sasha Fierce. Knowles said that Sasha was "born" during the making of her 2003 hit single "Crazy in Love." In an interview with Entertainment Weekly magazine, Knowles noted that her alter-ego is "strictly for the stage." The magazine has described it as "the singer's sensual, aggressive alter ego."

Beyonce Knowles wears a "roboglove" in public to compliment Sasha Fierce. It was Knowles' concept, and New York-based jeweler Lorraine Schwartz made the titanium glove. It consists of several pieces, including a ring, a glove, and a separate component that covers Knowles' upper arm. The glove first appeared in the video for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)". Knowles later wore it on the red carpet during the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards, on her performance at the Saturday Night Live show, on the cover of Gotham magazine, and in the music video to "Diva".

Music

"Sweet Dreams"
Play sound

The electronic bassline of "Sweet Dreams" has earned frequent comparison to Michael Jackson's earlier, rock-influenced work.

In a Billboard magazine interview, Knowles described the two sides of the album: "... One side has songs that are more mainstream and another has my more traditional R&B songs for my fans who've been there the whole time. Some of it sounds like Barbra Streisand, Karen Carpenter and the Beatles around the 1970s." Beyonce Knowles explained at The Oprah Winfrey Show that the difference between I Am... Sasha Fierce and Knowles' earlier solo albums is that it includes more ballads. It is Knowles' first album not to feature any duets or collaborations. The second disc, Sasha Fierce features 80's synthpop, electropop, and electro displayed in songs like "Radio", "Diva", "Sweet Dreams", "Scared of Lonely", and "Video Phone". The songs "Single Ladies", "Radio", "Diva", and "Video Phone The track "Smash Into You", from the Deluxe edition, is played during the credits at the end of the movie Obsessed, in which Knowles stars.

Beyonce Knowles - Dangerously in Love, Conception, Context.

2009-07-20T22:46:00.000-07:00

Beyonce Knowles 's Conception, Context of Dangerously inLove.

Beyonce Knowles launched her singing career with Destiny's Child, an R&B group of which Beyonce was the centerpiece, in the late 1990s. According to Corey Moss of MTV News, "fans are eager to see" how Knowles, after years with the group, performs solo. While recording their third album, Survivor, in late 2000, Knowles announced that members of the group would disband for a short period to produce solo albums in the coming years, which they hoped would boost interest to Destiny's Child. The idea of individual releases emanated from the group's manager and Knowles' father, Mathew.

With different types of music for each member to produce, the albums were not intended to compete on the charts. Destiny's Child's management strategically planned to stagger every year each member's album. Group mate Michelle Williams was the first to release a debut solo album, Heart to Yours, in April 2002.Meanwhile, Beyonce Knowles debuted on the big screen, starring in the comedy film Austin Powers in Goldmember; she recorded her debut single, "Work It Out", which is featured in the soundtrack to the film. Rowland collaborated with American rapper Nelly on the song "Dilemma" as a featured artist; it became a hit that year, causing the label to advance the release date of her debut solo album, Simply Deep, to late 2002. Beyonce Knowles starred in The Fighting Temptations and recorded another solo single. In 2003, she collaborated with long-time boyfriend Jay-Z as featured vocalist in the song "'03 Bonnie & Clyde"; the single earned Beyonce Knowles credibility and paved the way for release of Dangerously in Love.

The second ch*ick is hot, I've seen Esther Baxter before, I dunno if those bo*obs are real... if they are then Esther Baxter's a bombshell, if not then she loses points. Anyway, I'd choose her over "B." "

Then My friend added... "Beyonce is sort of fa*ked comparing to the rest of the women, they enhance Esther Baxter's body with photoshop, stunts, butt pads, make-up in which everybody wears, but lets just say true fact Esther Baxter spent 8 hrs on make-up, and no way you can spend that much, but the ch*ick here is Esther Baxter she is video honey."

OOOps... Just for Fun... Don't blame me... That it's just my friend opinion... :)

Off Course for me Beyonce is still the Best... :)

Beyonce - Sing and Dance at the Oscars

2009-02-20T02:09:00.000-08:00

Beyonce will sing and dance at the Oscar... With the audiences for the Academy Awards dropping at an alarming pace with each year, the organizers and ABC have seemingly come up with the perfect solution to get people back on board. Rumor in the industry has it that this year’s gala will feature an amazing singing and dancing number combining some of the hottest stars of today, including Zac Efron, Beyonce and Hugh Jackman.

According to reports from E! Online and MTV, this year’s show will be a genuine singing extravaganza that will hopefully bring back part of the younger demographic, currently leaving by the thousands because the show is too boring and outdated. As it happens, the sponsors are also leaving with the audiences, which clearly puts ABC in quite a hot spot.

"Beyonce will reportedly perform with Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens at the Oscars this Sunday in a musical extravaganza directed by Baz Luhrmann. The camp spectacle will also include singing from host Hugh Jackman and 'Mamma Mia' stars (and real life couple) Dominic Cooper and Amanda Siegfried." MTV reports. According to sources on the inside, rehearsals have already started – which, come to think of it, is only natural since the awards will take place this weekend.

Yesterday, it emerged that ABC was having serious troubles with this year’s telecast, as rumors began pouring in that cosmetics giant L’Oreal had dropped out of the ad race. Along with it, it was said, several others were thinking of doing the same on account of the dropping ratings and the target demographic of the Oscars (over 40s), which clearly did not correspond to their target – for instance, L’Oreal addresses young women.

"Besides losing a backer with deep pockets – since 2004, L’Oreal’s Academy Awards spend has added up to a cool $40.9 million, per TNS Media Intelligence – ABC is heading into the week with a significant chunk of unsold inventory. Last year, L’Oreal bought 180 seconds of air time, according to Nielsen Monitor-Plus, the second-largest investment behind General Motors (210 seconds). At an average cost of $1.7 million, the two clients combined to invest $22.1 million in last year’s Oscars.” MediaWeek reported yesterday.

Beyonce Knowles - Barack Obama Loves Her

2009-01-31T02:26:00.000-08:00

Beyonce Knowles and Barack Obama... when inaugural concert, John Legend's video vaults to a whole other level just after the 6:45 mark, when Barack Obamas bump into Beyonce Knowles. The sound is a little muffled, but the transcript goes something like this…

Michelle Obama: "Mr. President, you didn't tell Beyonce about 'Single Ladies'? Your rendition?"

President Barack Obama: [chuckles] "Oh! I'm not like Justin. I didn't put on the outfit. But I didn't want my girls thinking that I couldn't, you know...I got a lil' something."

...then the President Obama does the Sasha Fierce hand-twirl move fr the "Single Ladies" video! (That'd be Step No. 6 in our definitive "Single Ladies" dance tutorial.) Un. Real. It's over quickly, but President's little "if you liked it then you should a put a ring on it" gesture certainly beats all the other "Single Ladies" YouTube tributes out there, wouldn't you say? And how amazing is it that the leader of the free world clearly knows all about Justin Timberlake's "Single Ladies" parody skit from Saturday Night Live?! This is sooooo much cooler than that time last year when Mitt Romney attempted to sing "Who Let the Dogs Out."

Diva Beyoncé Knowles and D.C. police

2009-01-23T04:32:00.000-08:00

Beyoncé Knowles and her hubby, Jay-Z, were told by D.C. police they had to get out of their vehicle and walk because the roads were blocked off, Beyonce refused.

Earlier this week, as Brooklyn rap legend Jay-Z was returning from his rehearsal for his pre-inaugural performance, Jay-Z and his wife, Beyoncé Knowles, were stopped by D.C. police. The cops told the couple that they would have to get out of the car and walk the next four blocks to their destination, due to the roads being blocked off.

According to bossip.com, Beyoncé refused to walk anywhere in her heels. The cops refused to let them pass, but luckily the secret service happened to be in the area, to give the couple a ride back to their hotel so they could change, and then return them to the theater. When word got back to Beyoncé on how her Diva-like actions as of lately conflict with her pretend humble, "good-girl" persona, she got upset and has been quoted saying, “I’m not this round the clock diva looking for attention. I’m way more comfortable out of the spotlight and just chilling out with my family. “I’m very quiet. I love to paint. I love to watch TV, though it seems I never get to do it. I love a lot of old television shows. I still love the Cosbys. I also love the Fresh Prince.”

Beyonce Knowles - "If I Were a Boy" Dominate Youtube Music videos

2009-01-03T15:59:00.000-08:00

Beyonce Knowles' video for "If I Were a Boy" has been watched by more than thirty four million on the video-sharing site. In it, Knowles imagines life if gender roles were reversed between Knowles and her boyfriend (a fictional boyfriend, alas, not Jay-Z). It offers the particular thrill of seeing Beyonce as a police officer - which, if it ever happened, would surely cause such a rash of speeding (with the hopes of a ticket from the pop star) that roads would resemble "Grand Theft Auto."

"If I Were a Boy" popularity is approached by Beyonce Knowles' "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)." That video has yielded at least twenty two million views and inspired countless bedroom copycats.

If I Were a Boy' video has spawned dozens and dozens of amateur versions, from the mimicking of a toddler named Arianna to more aggressively serious attempts, like that of a 20-year-old North Carolina native who identifies himself as a Staples employee named Chris or "Angel Pariz."

Beyoncé married rapper Jay-Z in a secret ceremony earlier this year. She will perform in London, Birmingham, and Manchester in May and it is believed Alex will support.

A source tells The People newspaper, "Beyoncé was blown away by Alex.

"She thought she had exceptional talent and told her so during their rehearsal for last week's performance of Listen.

"In the dressing room, Beyoncé told Alex she'd like to work with her in the future and suggested the possibility of recording a new single together. She also said she'd love Alex to take part in her UK tour, possibly as a support act, although nothing is set in stone yet.

"After their duet last week Beyoncé then told X Factor supremo SIMON COWELL 'I want to work with this lady. She is going to be a massive star'.

"Alex couldn't believe what she hearing.

"Beyoncé is one of her all-time heroes and to be given her approval is like a dream come true.

Beyonce - A Power struggle in Being Married to Jay Z?!

2008-12-17T17:30:00.000-08:00

Beyonce Knowles says being married to Jay-Z is a "power struggle". She wed the music mogul in April - admits the relationship can sometimes be tiring, but Knowless wouldn't have it any other way.

Beyonce Knowles said: "My marriage is a power struggle. But if I didn't respect someone, and they didn't have that strength, then I would be bored. I wouldn't be
attracted to them."

Beyonce Knowles also revealed Knowles' mother Tina was banned from the set when she filmed upcoming movie 'Cadillac Records', because she wasn't used to seeing her daughter curse.

Beyonce Knowles plays blues singer Etta James in the film. She added to America's Elle magazine: "My mom had to leave the set. I don't normally curse. Maybe twice a year. I have to be really livid. Somebody saying things or scheduling something where I'm not in control.

"Cursing was freeing, but the shoot was also the most emotionally draining time of my life. Every day I would come home - my eyes would be completely swollen."

2008-12-07T05:55:00.001-08:00

Beyonce Knowles has influenced various contemporary artists. Pop singer Rihanna has been compared to her when the columnist for The Guardian Amina Taylor called her "Bajan Beyoncé", pop-R&B. The Canadian singer of the same genre, Keshia Chanté, had also an influence from Knowles. In addition, American Idol winner Jordin Sparks' first single, "Tattoo", and debut album have been described as very "Beyoncé-ish"; some critics said that "Tattoo" might be "a blatant rip-off" off Beyonce Knowles' hit single "Irreplaceable".

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic found American pop singer Katharine McPhee's songs on her debut album of the same name to have heavy influences from Knowles' music. Rowland was inspired by Knowles’ voice while recording the former's second album, Ms. Kelly.

Beyonce Knowles, in an article entitled "Born to Entertain", alongside classic and contemporary entertainers, was complimented for her stage performances. Amidst notable appearances, however, Beyonce often receives criticisms. Pareles says, "Beyoncé can't keep up with the complex rhythms; onstage, she kept falling behind." Knowles performance at the former U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant's tomb on July 4, 2003 was cited as lasciviously choreographed; Grant's descendants in attendance had mixed reaction to it.

In 2006, Beyonce Knowles introduced her all-female tour band Suga Mama. In the months prior to the release of B'Day, Beyonce held an audition among female musicians across the United States, which concluded in June. The performing ensemble includes bassists, drummers, guitarists, horn players, keyboardists and percussionists.

Beyoncé Knowles - Style and image - Songwriting and producing

2008-11-26T07:20:00.000-08:00

Beyoncé Knowles - Since Destiny's Child, she has been artistically involved in her career. Beyonce co-wrote most of the songs recorded by the group, as well as her solo efforts. Known for writing personally driven and female-empowerment themed compositions, she has stated that having Jay-Z in her life has changed a few of her thoughts about how men and women relate to one another. Some of Knowles' songs are autobiographical, which she has admitted are taken from personal experiences, as well as her friends'.

Beyonce has co-produced most of the records in which she has been involved, especially during her solo efforts. Although she does not formulate beats and melodies herself, Beyonce typically comes up with ideas during production, sharing them with producers.

Beyonce was recognized as a song-writer during the run of Destiny's Child in the 1990s and early to mid-2000s. Knowles won the Songwriter of the Year award at the 2001 American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers Pop Music Awards,becoming the first African-American female and second overall female songwriter of all time to accomplish that feat. She received three song-writing credits in a single year for co-writing "Irreplaceable", "Grillz" and "Check on It", the only woman to achieve since Carole King in 1971 and Mariah Carey in 1991. In terms of credits, Beyonce is tied with Diane Warren at third with nine number-one singles.

Despite Beyonce' songwriter credits since Destiny's Child, her involvement was a subject of media scrutiny. An issue of Vanity Fair magazine, which happened to feature Knowles on its cover, fueled issues regarding her song-writing credits. In the magazine, she says, "I had written ... seven, eight number one songs with Destiny's Child, in a row." Roger Friedman of FOX News questioned the veracity of her statement. One argument of Friedman involved the credit given to Knowles on her hit "Crazy in Love". He pointed out that the song was written by Eugene Record of the Chi-Lites and was only sampled by Rich Harrison, who produced the track. In a 2004 MTV news report, it was stated, "... Harrison stepped up and wrote the verses and the hook, leaving the bridge for Beyoncé." Friedman also cited songs from Destiny's Child and her solo recordings in his arguments. Another issue spread after Knowles' name was discredited for a nomination given to "Listen" at the 2007 Academy Awards. The Academy's ruling explained that only three major contributors should be recognized during the awards process, and Knowles was the least among the four.

When the song, "If I Were a Boy" initially premiered, Fox News ran a story stating that Toby Gad stole the song from unknown artist, BC Jean after a failed agreement. The articles continues to state that Jean was unaware that Knowles recorded the track. Neither Jean nor Gab have released statements concerning this matter.
