Beyonce claims she's no diva but a normal girl



BEYONCE is just a normal girl, according to the singer herself.

The Crazy In Love hit maker doesn't think her Diva reputation is fair and says she enjoys life more when she is out of the spotlight.

Beyonce explained: "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 old television shows. I still love the Cosbys. I also love the Fresh Prince."

Beyonce turned down a lucrative deal to sell her wedding photos



Beyonce Knowles turned down a lucrative deal to sell her wedding photos.

The singer tied the knot with Jay-Z, 39, in New York in April 2008.

But the couple wanted to keep the ceremony as private as possible.

‘I didn’t want a dramatic wedding,’ she says. ‘People can sometimes put too much emphasis on the big day, but it’s so temporary, it’s gone in a second.

‘They offered us crazy money, but we weren’t interested. Outside it was paparazzi madness, but inside it was beautiful.’

Beyonce, 27, is enjoying being a newlywed.

‘I knew I wouldn’t get married before the age of 25,’ she tells Fabulous.

‘You have to know yourself, know what you want, spend time by yourself and be proud of who you are before you can share with someone else.

‘I was 18 when we met, so there was no rush. But the wait was worth it. It feels great being married. I had my own life before I became someone’s wife.’

'I think like a guy. If I do something wrong I don’t get emotional.’

Beyonce Knowles stars as troubled Etta James in 'Biopic Cadillac Records'



Beyonce Knowles spent time with recovering heroin addicts for her latest movie.

The singer stars as troubled Etta James in biopic Cadillac Records.

As well as meeting the soul diva, now 70, she visited Phoenix House rehab centre in New York to research the part.

‘I said, “I have to do this movie” – but I was terrified,’ she explains. ‘I never tried drugs in my life so I didn’t know about it all.

'It was hard to go to the rehab. I learned a lot about life and myself.’

Beyonce, 27, was apparently reduced to tears by the plight of six African-American addicts she met.

‘It was very intense,’ rehab chief exec Howard Meitiner tells the Mail On Sunday. ‘Everyone was crying.

'These were women who have lost everything because of drugs – their homes, their families, their jobs.’

Cadillac Records is released in the UK in the spring.

Beyonce Knowles: She isn't ready to become a mom yet



Beyoncé Knowles admits she isn’t ready to become a mum just yet.

The singer married rapper Jay-Z in a secret ceremony seven months ago.

But she says they have no plans to have children.

‘I’ve seen the reality of having a kid and I know that I’m not quite ready for it,’ she tells Hello!

‘I know I want kids but I’ve never been a girl who sees a baby and goes, “Ooh, I want one!”

'But when I do eventually have a child, I can only pray that he is amazing as [my nephew] Jules.

'He’s just the best. He’s also a lot of work!’

Earlier this year, Jay-Z, 38, said he was looking forward to starting a family.

Beyoncé Knowles has revealed she would love to play Wonder Woman on the big screen.

The singer wants to don the red, white and blue bathing suit in a film version of the classic comic book.

‘I want to do a superhero movie and what would be better than Wonder Woman,’ she tells the Los Angeles Times.

‘It would be great and it would be a very bold choice. A black Wonder Woman would be a very powerful thing.’

Beyoncé, 27, earned a Golden Globe nomination for her role in Dreamgirls alongside Jennifer Hudson, 27, and Jamie Foxx, 40.

‘After doing these roles that were so emotional I was thinking to myself, “OK, I need to be a superhero”,' she says.

‘I love Wonder Woman and it would be a dream come true to be that character. It sure would be handy to have that lasso.’

Economy class Beyonce Knowles




Beyonce Knowles still flies economy class.

The 'Crazy in Love' singer - who along with husband Jay-Z is worth millions of dollars - insists she doesn't mind shunning the elite seats to sit with the general public when she travels.

She is quoted as saying: "Even now I sometimes fly economy if I need to. We had a storm in Miami and there was a hurricane coming so we just got out.

"You know the airlines where if you're fifth in line, you sit in seat five? And then they throw a peanut at you with your drink? I don't care about those kind of things."

However, the 27-year-old star admitted there are some reasons why she prefers first class, including a greater degree of privacy

Beyonce top-less in sexy shoot to promote new album




BEYONCE looks like she could eat the PUSSYCAT DOLLS alive in this fiercely sexy shot to promote her new album.

Dressed in figure-hugging jeans, the singer shows off her perfectly pert derriere that will put every previous winner of Rear of the Year to shame.

Saucy ... Beyonce

Hot totty maybe, but it seems the former DESTINY'S CHILD star is about to go a little 'diva' on us.

The singer has renamed herself Sasha Fierce, insisting her sensual and outgoing alter-ego is the persona she embodies onstage.

Beyonce said: "I have someone else that takes over when it's time for me to work and when I'm on stage.

"An alter-ego I've created that kind of protects me and who I really am."

She added: "Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken and more glamorous side that comes out when I'm working and when I'm on the stage."

New album I Am... Sasha Fierce is released on November 18.

BEYONCE Knowles has lost her Dreamgirl looks by piling on more than a stone in weight.

And the 27-year-old has replaced her long, flowing locks with a messy blonde wig.

Beyoncé gained 15lb and donned a horrendous blonde hairpiece to portray legendary blues singer Etta James for her latest film, Cadillac Records.

It is not the first time the Crazy In Love singer has altered her figure for a film.

She went on a liquid diet to slim down for her role in Dreamgirls two years ago.

But she told an American magazine her latest change of image was much more fun.

Beyoncé revealed: “It was way easier – and tastier – than having to lose so much weight for Dreamgirls.”

But don’t worry, Beyoncé has dieted her way back to her usual svelte self now that filming has finished.

Beyonce Knowles' 'exciting' new life




Beyonce Knowles is "terrified, but excited" about married life.

The 'Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)' singer - who wed Jay-Z earlier this year - admits it is taking time for her to get used to her new relationship status.

She said: "This is a new chapter for me. I'm terrified, but excited. It's like I'm a new woman!"


The 27-year-old beauty also revealed Jay-Z has inspired a lot of songs on her new record 'I Am?', adding: "I am happy right now and this album has a lot of love songs that talk about my emotions - me naked with my heart exposed."

Beyonce also spoke about her role as blues singer Etta James in upcoming film 'Cadillac Records', a role for which she was required to gain 15lbs.

She told America's InStyle magazine: "It was way easier - and tastier - than having to lose so much weight for 'Dreamgirls'. I also studied Etta's mannerisms and tried to make them my own. My performance, my posture - everything was so different from who I am. It was difficult."

Beyonce Knowles' 'real' love




Beyonce Knowles has broken her silence on her marriage.

The singer has previously refused to discuss her relationship with rapper Jay-Z, who she married in a secret ceremony in April but has now opened up about their "real" love.

Beyonce insists her husband - real name Shawn Carter - loves all her "flaws", adding to Essence magazine: "What Jay and I have is real. It's not about the interviews or getting the right photo op. It's real."

The 27-year-old singer also revealed she wants to be remembered for changing the world.

She explained: "I want to be acknowledged as a woman in a very talented group with great harmonies and great songs that made history and changed the culture of women, not only in America but all over the world. A woman who could sing a cappella and write her own songs and produce her own songs."

Beyonce previously claimed things would get "messy" if she spoke about her personal life in interviews.

She said: "I never talked about relationships. I only talk about them in my songwriting, otherwise things get too messy. It has worked out because now nobody expects me to talk about them. But it's hard too. You fall in love and you want to tell everybody. But that's a place I just don't go."

The 'Crazy in Love' star showed off her £2.5 million diamond wedding ring for the first time last weekend while enjoying a day at the beach with younger sister Solange.

Beyonce Knowles Performing at Bermuda Music Festival

Beyonces new album was rumoured to have been pushed back to she posted this message on her website:

“I want to talk to my fans about my upcoming album.

I have worked on this album for close to one year. I have taken the time so I can create my sound, something that says who I am at this stage in my life. I have poured my heart and soul into it. It is my baby. It is the most time I have spent on any project since my first records as a member of Destiny’s Child when I was 15 years old. I have recorded over 70 songs and have created a sound that reveals all of me. 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.”

Love,

Beyoncé

Beyonces two new singles "If I Were A Boy" and "Single Ladies" are hitting radio stations on October 7th.

Beyonce's charity work honoured at Miami children's fundraiser


With her hair smoothed back and wearing an scarlet evening gown, Beyonce made an elegant guest of honour at the charity bash, which rewarded her hard work helping others.

It may have been the Diamond Ball yet songstress Beyonce Knowles chose to leave her own 18-carat wedding ring rock behind as she was recognised for her charity work.

Just two days earlier, the sparkler - said to be worth £2.5 million - was on display while she boogied at the Bermuda Music Festival. On Saturday, though, the singer obviously wanted to focus the attention on the fundraising night and not her recently acquired ring.

Beautiful Beyonce was guest of honour at a glitzy Florida gala to raise money for the Miami Children’s Hospital Foundation. In recognition of all her hard work for others, the kind-hearted chanteuse was being inducted into the centre's Hall Of Fame.

And while she may have been the focus of the ball, where tables cost up to £5,500, Beyonce was more than happy to share the stage with another prodigious talent. Along with the glitzy crowd, the Bootylicious star was entranced by the skills of seven-year-old pianist Ethan Bortnick, who was playing to thank the hospital for treating his younger brother's heart defect.

”It is categorically untrue that L’Oréal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin-tone in the campaign for Feria hair color.”

The new ad for Feria hair color shows Beyonce with straight, honey blond hair and very light skin.
