Beyonce: Beyonce Caught Texting While Driving


Beyoncé ignored the "No Phone Zone" pledge that day time talk show host Oprah Winfrey created earlier this year. The pop singer was pulled over last month (June 23) by the NYPD for texting while driving."Beyoncé was actually embarrassed because she only currently got her driver's license," revealed a source. In an effort to get out of the situation, the Texas native is said to have used her celebrity status to avoid receiving a ticket."She tried to charm that cop and told him she had no idea that texting while driving was against the law," said the insider. But it seems that being Beyoncé wasn't enough to keep her out of hot water. "He had no idea who she was. He just slapped her with the ticket, which was worth more than $100!"Earlier this year it was reported that Beyoncé's husband, Jay-Z, gave her driving lessons to help her pass her road test, but looks like he may have forgotten to stress one important thing: texting while driving is against the law.

John Legend's Duet Wishlist, Beyonce is top


John Legend is on the hunt for more acts to get together with - and has his sights set on Beyonce and Amy Winehouse.
The Ordinary People crooner is a fan of teaming up with fellow artists on his records, boasting duets with Kanye West, Fergie, Estelle and King of Pop Michael Jackson shortly before his death last year.
Legend is eager to hit the studio with troubled singer Winehouse - who hasn't released an album in four years - as well as R&B superstar Beyonce - but admits the collaborations only work if both parties are on the same wavelength.
He tells the Huffington Post, "Usually I'm a fan of their work on some level and I think we could make something great together, and it's usually just a phone call away and a little bit of scheduling and we usually make it happen.
"As long as everyone comes into it with the right attitude, you know, a little bit of humility and a bit of that collaborative spirit, then you usually make something good out of it.
"I have a few people that I'd love to write for or write with, like Amy Winehouse would be fun. Beyonce would be cool too, just to name a few."

Beyonce: Beyonce Escapes Crash


Beyonce pop star Knowles managed to escape yesterday morning potentially life threatening injuries, as the car she was in was involved in a crash with a London cab. According to media reports, Beyonce was stepping off her chauffeur driven car, a Mercedes Benz S-Klasse, outside London's Harrods, when the aforementioned cab slammed into the door she had just opened."It was terrifying to watch. It all happened so quickly, the taxi came out of nowhere," a witness was quoted as saying by The Sun. "She seemed very shaken and was lucky to be alive. A couple of seconds difference and God knows what could have happened."According to NDTV, Beyonce was on her way to a dinner at a Japanese restaurant together with her husband, rapper Jay Z, when she decided to make an unscheduled stop at Harrods. After the crash, the couple were sent a replacement car to pick them up.Unfortunately, the relentless paparazzi which stick to star as flies do to... whatever, happened to miss out on exactly this incident, so there's no photo of the pop star's crash. Although apparently shook up by the incident, Beyonce and her husband recovered quickly and were seen enjoying their meal with smiles on their faces following the accident. taletela.com even reports that Jay-Z heft a 100 pounds tip at a restaurant on Friday.

After Lovechild Beyonce and Dad Still Not Speaking


Beyonce Knowles is still refusing to speak to her dad and manager, Matthew Knowles, after he fathered a love child with a woman 20 years his junior -- and suits at her record label fear the rift could damage her career. The superstar singer was horrified when it was alleged last year that Matthew had an 18-month affair with 38 year old Alexsandra Wright and DNA tests confirmed he'd fathered her son, Nixon, while still married to Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles. Now, sources tell Page Six that relations between Beyoncé, who is very close to her mom, and her father have reached such a low point that executives at her label, Columbia, are worried. Matthew guided Beyoncé's career through her days with Destiny's Child and is still her manager. But one music industry insider said, "Beyoncé was horrified to find out her dad cheated on her mom. She always looked up to him, and she is very close to her mom, so this has hit her really hard. She is refusing to speak to him, which is making things difficult where it comes to managing her career. Some people at Columbia now think it would be better to move him aside." Former "Scrubs" actress Wright filed a paternity suit last October, and a DNA test taken in March confirmed that Knowles was the father of Nixon, who was born on Feb. 4. A judge ordered him to pay $8,200 a month in child support on an interim basis. Wright, a Los Angeles based branding executive, claimed that Matthew Knowles, who was married to Tina for 29 years, had an affair with her for a year and a half. Tina filed for divorce last November. Wright and Matthew are now in the final stages of negotiating a child support settlement. A rep for Beyoncé said: "There is no merit to this. This is absolutely false." Matthew Knowles didn't get back to us.

'Single Ladies' Dance - Uh Oh, Beyonce Officially Wants To Retire


'enough is enough' Beyonce has finally said with the Single Ladies spoofs. When international soccer teams start recreating the video for their own Internet viral pleasures, it's officially time to move on. So much so, that Beyonce has said she's not going to perform the Single Ladies dance or do it in any more videos until the hype of the song dies down:
Beyoncé loves the fact the video and the routine have been so huge and has actually enjoyed performing ‘Single Ladies’ live but that’s it now, she’s moving on. She doesn’t want to be part of a long term joke, (but) that’s not to say she doesn’t get a big kick out of watching other people do it.”
You've gotta give credit to Matthew Knowles, not only does he know how to blow up a song, but also knows when to kill 'em. Brilliant!
