Everyone knew it was a big deal when Beyonce Knowles and Jay Z got married. And now they’ve been named Hollywood’s Top-Earning Couple by Forbes.com.
According to FOX News, the “Bootylicious” babe and her “99 Problems” rapper hubby brought in an astounding $162 million between June 1, 2007 and June 1, 2008.
Being honored for her trendsetting ways, Beyonce Knowles was spotted out on Wednesday night (November 19) for a Seventeen shindig at the Hearst Tower in New York City.
Posing alongside Seventeen Editor Jane Jameson and Editor in Chief Ann Shokethe, the “If I Were A Boy” singer was on-hand as the magazine unveiled Knowles as their 2008 Style Star of the Year.
THIS is…….. f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s!
Does her new video for Single Ladies look familiar to you too????
Pop singer, newlywed, and fashion designer Beyonce Knowles was looking quite amazing when she stopped by the last show of MTV’s TRL Live titled “Total Finale Live” in Times Square yesterday in New York City, New York. Beyonce Knowles was dressed in a black leather jacket with patterns and black leather pants. Did you see her hilarious sketch on SNL this weekend?
I like how with 2:25 left in the clip you can watch his neck turn bright red.
In the clip below, watch as Justin and Beyonce bring sexy back!
Justin Timberlake does it again. He completely steals the spotlight from Beyonce on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live.
I think he should think about giving up the singer/dancer game and just join SNL full time.

Justin Timberlake out danced in Beyonce last night on Saturday Night Live. That spoof was d!ck in a box, but it definitely was a bunch of d!cks in a leotard.
Beyonce has confessed that she is simply not ready for children, but when she is, she’s going to make sure she’s able to give them the time they need.
So does she plan to start the Carter-Knowles dynasty any time soon? ‘One day,’ she says. ‘I’m really patient. I wasn’t in a rush to get married. I’m not in a rush to have children. Because I work so much, I’m just not ready yet. I have a nephew, my sister’s son - it’s his birthday today and after this interview I’m going to Houston to see him. I was there in the delivery room when he was born. I had begged my sister, please don’t make me, ‘cos it’s going to traumatise me. But she talked me into it - and I was right! I’m scared of that! I mean it was amazing, and I cried when he was born. And I can’t believe that we as human beings have the power to create another human being. But it’s hard. It’s a lot of work and you have to be ready to be responsible for another human being. And I guess I want to be so good at it. I want to make sure that I’m ready so I can give my focus to my kid. When it happens it’s supposed to happen and it will. You know, I over-analyse everything, and I want to be the best at it, and maybe that’s just me being an over-achiever. I just wish I was better at everything.’
Beyonce might be using her perfectionism to try and be the best mother ever, but if that’s where she’s going to put her focus then at least she’s putting it in the right place. After having three people ask me when I’m returning to ‘real, full time work’ this week (my youngest of three just turned one) I kind of appreciate Beyonce saying that having children is actually a lot of work.
She also shares this story about her mother’s parenting style.
‘There have been times where my mom has literally smacked me in my face. When I was 19 - when I was confused and wondering what am I doing, who am I? - we were in the record store, my mom and dad were both there, and my song was playing, and I was feeling like hot stuff. She was asking me something and I started singing while she was talking to me. And there were some really cute guys in the store who were noticing me, and I was like, “Oh, yeah! I’m hot!” And my mom said, “I’m talking to you.” And I kept singing. And so she smacked me - slapped me in my face, so hard. And my dad said, “What are you doing?” Because I didn’t get spankings growing up. They didn’t believe in that. My mom said, “She thinks she’s hot stuff ‘cos her single is out. Nobody cares about that! You are still my child. I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it! Now go sit in the car.” But it was the best thing she could have ever done to me because for the first time I realised I was losing sight of what was important.

I don’t believe inhitting your kids, it’s actually illegal in my country, but I can’t help but wonder if this is why Beyonce has turned out so normal. If a few other teenage stars had been given limits things might have turned out a little differently. Did Lynne Spears ever mention telling her daughters to keep their egos in check?

Beyonce has earned millions of dollars singing, acting and designing clothes, but she's made it clear that she will never sell her wedding photos for the sake of her bank account. Beyonce recently discussed some of the offers she's gotten, as well as her amazement at how much money some publications are willing to fork over for the highly coveted shots!
According to the Associated Press, the Grammy-winning singer said, "They offer crazy money that's just ridiculous. It's so not worth it. If anything, if you wanna put something out, then put it out." Put it out indeed!
So when will we be seeing pics from Beyonce's wedding, hmm?
Taking to the Sporting Club stage, Beyonce Knowles performed “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” to kick off the 2008 World Music Awards in Monte Carlo, Monaco on Sunday (November 9).
Hosted by singer Michelle Williams and actor Jesse Metcalfe, Beyonce was amongst a list of top performers including former WMA winner Mariah Carey, as well as Alicia Keys and Kid Rock, among others.
Traveling the globe to promote their separate works, Beyonce Knowles and her sister Solange were spotted arriving at Nice Airport in France on Saturday (November 8).
The singing sisters were surrounded by bodyguards - headed to Monte Carlo where Beyonce is scheduled to perform at the 2008 “World Music Awards” on Sunday.

After playing Diana Ross (kinda) and Etta James, Beyonce's ready to take on the role of superhero!
The LA Times talked to the superstar singer and budding actress about which hero she'd most like to portray, and not surprisingly, Sasha Fierce picked Wonder Woman.
When did Beyonce's hip get so wide load? Who the heck dressed her in the GA outfit…her sister Solange Knowles? Plus who came up with that Edward Scissorhands Michael Jackson one glove look? Too bad Mr Blackwell passed away because her and her sister should be topping the Worst Dressed List.
BTW Beyonce I so agree with you that dress made me sick to my stomach too.

It’s one of the biggest nights in the International music industry, and earlier this evening musicians from all over the world converged on the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England for the 2008 MTV Europe Awards.
Taking care of the hosting duties was none other than Katy Perry. And the “I Kissed a Girl” songstress had plenty of sass and costume changes (a total of 12) to fill the 2-hour time allotment.
Always a red carpet dazzler, Beyonce Knowles looked simply striking as she arrived for the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards in Liverpool, England on Thursday (November 6).
Held at at the Echo Arena, Beyonce will reportedly be performing her brand new single “If I Were A Boy,” while little sister Solange takes on presenting duties.
The list of celebrities that Carrie Underwood doesn’t respect must be getting pretty long. Yesterday she told website Just Jared that she thinks celebs should keep their politics to themselves, and she doesn’t respect them if they publicly support a candidate.
Carrie Underwood has a message for Oprah, Diddy, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and even Heidi and Spencer: Don’t publicly back candidates for office.
“There is someone I do support, but I don’t support publicly,” she tells TV Guide, as excerpted by Just Jared. “I lose all respect for celebrities when they back a candidate.
“It’s saying that the American public isn’t smart enough to make their own decisions,” she goes on. “I would never want anybody to vote for anything or anybody just because I told them to.
“Music is where you go to get away from all the BS,” adds Underwood, who recently apologized for saying ex Tony Romo still calls her. “Whether it’s from politics or just the world around you, music should be an escape.”

I think it’s fine to keep your political opinions to yourself, but it is just as okay to shout them from the roof. Music is no one thing. It shouldn’t just be an escape. That’s one of many things it can be. It can also be about a cause, about a change, and moving people towards action. That’s pretty much the opposite of an escape.
Underwood would probably have a big problem with Beyonce, Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, and Diddy. All of them have shown up in Philadelphia encouraging people to vote for Obama.
“Everyone is excited and it’s time,” the singer tells PopEater. “I feel like we have grown so much as a nation and we will continue to grow because of Mr. Obama.”
Beyoncé’s admiration goes beyond just the Democratic candidate himself, and extends to his entire family. “I have had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Obama, his wife and his children, and they are the American dream,” she says. “They are so elegant, so classy, so intelligent and everything that I want to be. They make me really proud of my country.”
The Grammy winner’s husband Jay-Z has already been a strong supporter of the campaign, performing at Obama benefits and rallies across the country.
[From OK! Magazine]
Jay-Z and Diddy both talked about how important Pennsylvania is to Obama, and encouraged everyone to get out and vote today.
“John McCain desperately needs Philadelphia, but you can tell him ‘You cannot have Pennsylvania,’” said Jay-Z.
But McCain does have a chance to win Pennsylvania’s 21 electoral votes, if voter turnout is low in urban centers like Philadelphia.
The star-studded cast of this block rally is determined to make sure that doesn’t happen.
They’re working hard to get new voters to the polls.
“It’s about the youth vote, it’s about the long lines and getting them prepared. The youth vote will decide the next president of the United States,” said Sean “Diddy” Combs. “They said we wouldn’t come out, they said we wouldn’t vote, but we’re going to shock the world tomorrow.”
[From ABC Local]
I remember actress Patricia Heaton complaining several years ago about how hard it is to be a conservative in Hollywood. Certainly they are in the minority, and I understand why a lot of people there would simply prefer to avoid political discussions completely. But I think Underwood’s assertion that celebs speaking about political issues that matter to them somehow makes them unworthy of respect is rather extreme. I seriously doubt many people who were going to vote for McCain will switch their vote around because Jay-Z and Beyonce like Obama.

They’re both successful soul singers in their own right, and earlier today (October 31) Beyonce and Solange Knowles teamed up for a promotional appearance in Tokyo, Japan.
The “Bootylicious” songstress and her “Sandcastle Disco” sister were spotted at the trendy Eight Million fashion shop in the Ginza district as they posed for the paparazzi.
Finished up with her work in New York City, Beyonce Knowles was spotted making her way through JFK airport on Wednesday afternoon (October 29).
With the help of airport personnel, the “Dreamgirls” singer/actress slowly made her way through the terminal and past following paparazzi, ready to catch a flight out of town.
Beyonce was in NYC last night to celebrate the new House of Dereon Collection at Bloomingdale's on 59th Street, and I hate to say this but...she looked pretty good! Usually Beyonce squeezes herself into sparkly frocks that look like a cross between a prom dress and a skating costume, but this time she opted for a sexy LBD with royal blue satin peep toe pumps. Nice work!
What's she thinking?
This is idiotic.
Diddy changed his name shitloads of times and now Beyonce wants to change her stage name to Sasha Fierce. Are you kidding me? No, she’s not punking our asses. Here is her crass excuse as to why she is changing her name:
“I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am. Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I’m working and when I’m on the stage.”
Really? You know, they have pills for that shit nowadays. Hell, they have pills for everything. Beyonce, you need some extensive psycotherapy to help you, too.
I’m thinking this Sasha Fierce person is actually Jay-Z dressed up like a woman.
Beyonce has announced that from this point forward she would like to be known as ‘Sasha Fierce’..at least when she’s on stage. B says that when she steps on stage Sacha takes over and that’s when things start getting nasty.
“Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I’m working and when I’m on the stage. I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am.”
In real life, Beyonce Knowles is quiet, mousy librarian who lives with 18 cats and watches HSN 10 hours a day.
Sacha’s new album, cleverly titled “I Am…Sasha Fierce” will hit the shelves on November 18, but in the meantime you can check out Sasha’s new MySpace page. It’s …wait for it….FIERCE!
I swear, celebrities never cease to amaze me.
Beyonce, whose name is a household word, thinks that she needs to create an alter ego. And that alter ego’s name is ‘Sasha Fierce‘.
She explains,
“I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am. Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I’m working and when I’m on the stage.”
Do you like Beyonce’s new nickname? If not, what do you think her alter ego name should be?

The women of the Knowles family are legendary divas. The kind that are best left together only at Thanksgiving dinners and occasions where lots of other people are around to calm them down and not give in to their demands. Unfortunately little sister Solange Knowles will be joining big sister Beyonce on her upcoming 110-date round the world concert tour.
Solange had made a big deal about carving out her own identity in the music world and would freak out if anyone even mentioned Beyonce to her. Clearly she’s learning to take what she can get, since I’m guessing people are going to have a lot to say about her big sister on her own tour.
Last week, Mathew Knowles broke the news that Beyoncé will embark on a 110-date world tour that will begin in April 2009 and trek through Canada, Europe, the U.S. (with a one-week stint in Las Vegas), Mexico, South America, Japan, Africa, and Australia. But what you didn’t hear was that Beyoncé won’t be the only Knowles on the road.
Discussions are under way for Solange to join her big sis’ on tour. After seeing the elder Knowles rock arenas, fans would be able to go to a more intimate location and watch Solange perform at an official “after-party.” Specific details have yet to be announced.
Beyoncé is scheduled to release her third album I Am… on November 18th, while Solange’s sophomore release SoL-AngeL and The Hadley St. Dreams is available now.

I cannot even imagine the kind of dramatics and hysterics that are going to come from this. It will be legendary. It will be the epic stuff that movies are made about twenty years later. I imagine a lot of House of Dereon clothes will be thrown out windows and lit on fire during fights. Along with the traditional hair pulling and crystal vase throwing.
They’re probably both lovely in their way, but Beyonce and Solange strike me as the kind of sisters that need their space. Definitely not the kind who should be working together in any way, shape, or form. Solange used to work as a backup singer for Destiny’s Child back in the day, and that seems to have created some resentment. But if nothing else I’m sure it’ll also create some great gossip.
Here’s Beyonce at the MTV Studios in New York City on October 14th. Images thanks to Fame. Header of Solange presenting her second album at a private concert in Madrid yesterday. Images thanks to WENN.
As previously reported by the Gossip Girls, Beyonce Knowles paid a visit to MTV’s Total Request Live yesterday, and she was looking fine.
The “Irreplaceable” songstress donned a strapless black minidress overtop a pair of black leggings with shiny black leather boots as she fielded questions and mingled with the audience.
Beyonce will be the last live performer on MTV's 'Total Request Live.'
The "Irreplaceable" singer says she's doing it as a tribute to the show that has played such an important role in her career.
"I can remember being 16 or 17 when they asked us to be on the show, and it was our big moment," the former Destiny's Child singer said on the show Tuesday.
The big 'TRL' finale is still more than a month away and Beyonce says she isn't sure what song she'll be singing. The special 2-hour finale of 'TRL' airs November 16th.
Seriously is Solange dressing her sister now? Beyonce it is 30 years too late for you to dress like you are going to perform at a ballet recital.

Out for press duties, Beyonce Knowles dropped by MTV Studios for an appearance on Total Request Live on Tuesday afternoon (October 14).
The “Irreplaceable” singer looked sexy in a black strapless gown with matching heeled boots as she got ready to plug her upcoming album.
Beyoncé leaked two singles from her upcoming album simply titled, I Am - and if you missed their premiere yesterday, you can check them out here.
The first is “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” and it is just what you would expect from B, an upbeat, catchy tune that is sure to be an instant radio hit.
The other is a soft ballad called “If I Were a Boy“, which I personally think is a little silly, and when I hear this one, it reminds me of our dear old friend, Pinocchio.
But don’t take my word for it, listen for yourself:
“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”
“If I Were a Boy”Although Beyonce isn’t really my cup of tea these days, if you’re a Beyonce fan, I highly doubt you will be disappointed.

They’ve been spending the past couple of days enjoying some fun in the sun on a trip to Miami, Florida. And earlier today Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z were spotted grabbing some grub.
The “Bootylicious” songstress and her “99 Problems” hubby enjoyed a relaxing lunch together, arriving via chauffeured SUV. Jay rocked a baggy white t-shirt and jeans, while his leading lady sported a white tank top with a matching white skirt, flip flops, and a multicolored handbag.
Taking the stage at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Florida, Beyonce Knowles was the center of attention at the 2008 Diamond Ball And Private Concert last night (October 4).
The “Irreplaceable” singer was the guest of honor at the glitzy gala which hoped to raise as much money as possible for the Miami Children’s Hospital Foundation.
Showing off her sexy curves, Beyonce Knowles was spotted spending the day at the beach on Friday (October 3).
The “Irreplaceable” songstress smiled as she walked along the shoreline surrounded by security personnel, sporting a colorful two-piece bikini with a bright orange and white sarong tied around her waist.
Beyonce is currently in Bermuda hanging out on the beach, sipping margaritas, and oh yeah - flaunting her 18-carat, $5 million engagement ring! We've already seen the monstrous rock weighing down her hand, but we're still blown away every time we see it. No wonder she's constantly surrounded by bodyguards!
Jay-Z loooooves her!
