Beyoncé’s getting money from everywhere…endorsing L’oreal, American Express, etc…she can now add Nintendo to that list. The “Diva” gets her game on with nephew Julez in this exclusive behind-the-scenes clip and interview. She partners with Nintendo on their ad campaign for the game Rhythm Heaven for the new Nintendo DSi, launching April 5. The commercial is slated to air March 30.
Beyonce got dat ass er’where and I ain’t mad at her. She was just the first black female to grace the cover of US Vogue (following First Lady, Michelle Obama). Now she’s also featured in the Italian Vogue. In this spread, she does her thing as Marilyn Monroe…I think she really feeling the short blond wig nowadays. Check out the pics below…
Beyonce has wrapped two more videos for the third simultaneous singles off her latest album I Am… Sasha Fierce.
Pop radio will get “Broken-Hearted Girl” from her I Am… disc, while Sasha Fierce’s “Ego” will be released to urban stations. The pop star has already recorded a remix to the latter with Kanye West.
Beyoncé co-directed a video for “Ego” with her choreographer. “My goal for [the ‘Ego’ video] is simplicity,” she tells EW. “In ‘Single Ladies,’ I saw this old tape of Bob Fosse’s wife, and I used that as inspiration. I thought in this world, with all the technolgy and everything that’s going on, to strip everything down—great idea. So I kind of did the same thing, but glossy and black, for ‘Ego.’”
Don’t expect to see the famous “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” animatronic hand in the “Ego” clip though. “I didn’t have the Sasha Fierce hand [in the video],” she laughs. “But I have it on the tour. It’s actually even more wild—I have to figure out how I’m going to perform with that hand!”
Beyoncé will embark on the European leg of her I Am… world tour in late April.

Beyoncé was in New York recently shooting a promo video for her ‘I Am…Tour’. Surrounded by an army of male extras, Bey looked kinda unreal…I mean we know she got hips but damn they supposed to be defined like that girl?
Beyonce Knowles talked with Cosmopolitan UK March 2009. Here is an excerpt:
On keeping her relationships private: “There are certain things that are kind of obvious, and if you start talking, the questions will never stop. I think there’s more to life than sharing it with everyone … At school, if I dated someone, I didn’t tell everyone. I fee like if everyone knows my stuff, it’ll take the beauty and pureness out of it.”
On her wedding to Jay-Z: “I’ve never been the girl who went to a wedding and thought, ‘Oooh, I want to get married.’ So I didn’t want anything big and dramatic [for my wedding day] … And I think that people can put way too much emphasis on the day. It’s just so temporary and it goes in a second … I think it’s important for women to have their moment, whether it’s your prom or your birthday … but to me, marriage is not about that moment. It’s about something way deeper.”
Photographer Tony Duran has almost become Beyonce’s official photographer- helming her most provocative photo shoots from the Sasha Fierce era. From her sexy vamped up look in GQ Magazine, to her “Dark Knight” inspired photo shoot for Gotham Magazine, Tony was was the man behind the lens. Continuing their relationship that goes back to the Dangerously In Love Era, the two have come together again for the singer’s latest photo spread. Decked out in all white, these most recent images of the singer are rumored to be featured in her upcoming tour booklet.
As many of you know by now, the singer is going on tour this Spring and many of her overseas tour dates have already sold out, causing promoters to add extra dates to handle the demand. Look for Sasha Fierce to kick off her 2009 world tour next month.
Until then… enjoy the pics.

Beyoncé opened the show with ‘Halo’ at the 40th Annual NAACP Image Awards that aired on FOX…I somehow missed this and I’m usually up on my Bey shit. This is her first performance in a long time. She wasn’t even at the Grammy’s. Beyoncé also picked up the award for Outstanding Female Artist. Check out the video…
I just got my hands on the second version of ‘Diva’ by Beyoncé of course…it looks like they added some extra shots and did a little more editing. Personally, I like the second version best…you be the judge and check out the vids below.
Version I
Version II
Beyoncé premiered the video for the Dereon and House of Dereon Spring 2009 collection shoot on her Youtube channel recently even though I think this video is a little old…y’all know I stay atop everything that’s Bey. She got bread but she damn sure ain’t gotta pay models to be in her clothes ’cause she looks much better in them herself. Check out some HQ shots from the shoot after the jump.
Beyoncé performed ‘The Way We Were‘ at the Kennedy Center Honors for her “career model” Barbra Streisand. She did a great job…her tone and overall performance was timeless and elegant. I was thinking how old that song was and Bey was even born when this song came out but for her to sing it to Barbra Streisand says how timeless music really is. Just think when Beyoncé is Barbra’s age someone not even born yet will probably be honoring Bey with ‘Dangerously In Love‘ or ‘Halo‘ or one of her many other songs. Hope I’m alive to see that!
