Beyoncé Knowles: Snapshot
In 2003, Beyoncé parted from the girls (temporarily) to release her critically-acclaimed debut album, Dangerously in Love. This time, the growing songstress distanced herself from her manager father and won six more Grammys. In 2006, she released her chart-topping follow-up B’Day, which she later re-released in Spanish, collaborating with Latin pop star Shakira.
Beyoncé, who continues to make music with rap mogul and main squeeze Jay-Z, also designs clothes with her mother and has expanded her acting resumé as Deena Jones in the sparkling musical Dreamgirls. For the svelte role, the bootylicious singer lost 20 lbs. but immediately put the weight back on before gracing the cover of 2007′s Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue and earning a Golden Globe nod for Best Actress.

Beauties are beating the beasts
THE bootylicious juggernaut of BEYONCE and SHAKIRA is pulling clear of the ARCTIC MONKEYS in the race for the No1 single.I told you yesterday that the US/Colombian pair were leading the Sheffield rockers by just nine copies in the battle to be on top on Sunday — but that gap has widened to 1,500.
The divas have shifted around 15,200 copies of Beautiful Liar compared to the Monkeys’ 13,700 sales of Brianstorm.
I reckon the lads have done themselves out of a No1 with their single’s unusual release.
It was available to download for two weeks before it hit the shops — instead of the usual one.
But the cheeky chimps probably won’t care — having stuck two fingers up to chart success before.
After their hit debut album they released EP Who The F*** Are Arctic Monkeys? — which was not eligible for the charts at all.
Beyonce Named Ultimate Fantasy Girlfriend

A survey through AskMen.com has shown that former Destiny’s Child member Beyonce Knowles is the “world’s most desirable woman” in an annual poll dubbed “fantasy girlfriends”. This, after having been ranked just 50th last year.
Beyonce was followed by movie star Scarlett Johannsson in second place and Jessica Alba in third. Alba placed first last year. The majority of AskMen readers are aged between 18 and 34 years old.
Beyonce Wins Former Business Aide Court Case
A New York judge has dismissed a suit filed against Beyonce and Tina Knowles over a business deal gone bad. Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Herman Kahn ruled yesterday there was no evidence of a written contract between the plaintiff, Icon Entertainment CEO Greg Walker, and the mother-and-daughter fashion team behind House Of Dereon. Walker claimed the Knowleses had held back commission he felt he was owed for helping them set up a deal with clothing manufacturer Wear Me Apparel Corp, which prompted the birth of the House Of Dereon line. Walker filed the lawsuit last summer, after Beyonce paid him $25,000 for his help in setting up a string of marketing and endorsement deals for her. He felt that figure was an insult.
