The Celebrity couple Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z Split?

2007-03-20T14:41:00.001+02:00

According to MediaTakeOut.com in an exclusive interview with one of Jay Z’s "friends" - who spoke to them on the condition of anonymity - it was revealed that the loved Celebrity couple Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z have split after a 5 year relationship. The reason was quite obvious, Hip-Hop mogul Jay-Z (38 years old) wanted, for some time now, to settle down and have a family while Beyonce (and her family) did not. Apparently they remain good friends, they are very much in love - as the insider reveals - and things could get back on track. Hopefully we will soon have an official statement about whether is true or not.

[Jay Z]’s not 25 - he’s been ready to settle down and have a family for a while now. But Beyonce was asking him for more time. It got to the point where [Jay Z] was constantly pressuring her and it wasn’t good for the relationship … So they both decided that it would be best if they just stayed as friends.

Beyonce’s family was completely against her getting married. They’re cool with [Jay Z] and all … they just felt that he was a little too serious for her at this point in her life. And at this point in her career.

They still love each other and they’re still good friends so you can’t expect them to just cut things off completely … For now, it’s over. But who knows what might happen in a couple of months.

This year, Sports Illustrated asked musicians like Gnarls Barkley, Kanye West, Kenny Chesney, and the guys in Panic! At The Disco to pose in swimsuits for the Sports Illustrated issue.

Reports say that Beyonce revealed she had a hard time deciding about doing swimsuit covers refusing offers until now. It seems that she didn't want to do a shoot that would make her look less than classy : "I wanted to make sure that when I did one [a swimsuit layout], it's really classy and that I can look back at it years from now and show my kids. I can say 'see momma was beautiful. Look how good I looked!' [...] I'm a really shy person."

Beyonce and Shakira duet

2007-03-20T14:19:00.001+02:00

It's official, R&B Celebrity Beyonce has collaborated with Pop-Latin Celebrity Shakira on a new song for the Spanish-language re-release of her B’Day album. Beyonce revealed to MTV that she always loved Shakira, and the track 'Beautiful Liar' tells the story of two women who stick together in front of a double player man. I really hope the duet turns up to be a worldwide hit because the two are very talented singers; the reissue of 'B'Day' will also come with a DVD featuring five new videos.
In other Celebrity news, Beyonce will give style and a sexy look to Jay-Z's basketball franchise by designing new outfits. Jay-Z is a part-owner of NBA team the New Jersey Net while Beyonce and her mother TINA have the House of Dereon fashion line together.

I've always loved her and I've always wanted to work with her and the song fits perfectly. It basically talks about two women. The same guy is trying to get at both of them but instead of them fighting, they're saying, 'He's a beautiful liar, let's not fight, let's stick together - forget him!' I think it's a great concept. Before becoming a global superstar as a solo artist and acclaimed actress, Beyoncé was the lead singer of Destiny's Child.

The R&B singer Beyonce, who was our Celebrity of November 2005, is now also the Celebrity of February because of her recent film Pink Panter and the upcoming movie Dreamgirls. However, last month the R&B star also caught the attention with her fashion range - House of Dereon. The R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles reportedly received many hate mails for selling animal fur in her fashion range. The letters came thanks to Beyonce's label Dereon which started selling clothes made of rabbit and chinchilla fur - and teddy bears made of mink.

In present, Beyonce Knowles is focusing on her role in the upcoming movie "Dreamgirls" and her music career will have to wait, but not that much as the R&B celebrity revealed she is going to work on her next album after she ends up filming.

Beyonce plans an album in summer

2006-02-25T21:47:00.000+02:00

The R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles wants to release her next solo album this summer even though she has a busy movie schedule. Beyonce's Hollywood career has taken off, and because of it the singer has only six weeks to record the album.

The beautiful Beyonce, who is currently shooting Dreamgirls, considers that she is not facing a problem as she had done it before. The movie, which is based on the Broadway musical about a trio of black female soul singers who cross over to the pop charts in the early 1960's, could be the film of Beyonce's movie career, if all goes right. Beyonce first film was the smash hit Austin Powers In Goldmember and now The Pink Panther remake with Steve Martin.

I'm going to try and do an album after the movie. I want to put the album out in the summer, which means I have six weeks to record it after the movie (is completed). But I've done that with just about every album, so we'll see if it happens again.
- said R&B celebrity Beyonce -

Meanwhile, this news of a new album came as a surprise to us as we all thought Beyonce will take an one year break from music field. The singer's album will be her second as Beyonce had already released an R&B album - named Dangerously In Love - when she was still a Destiny's Child member. I wonder if Beyonce upcoming album will have at least the same success or even greater then the first solo album.

In present Beyonce's "Check On It" featuring Slim Thug reach up its fourth week on top of Billboard Hot 100 and Pop 100 singles charts Thursday, the single is part of the 'Pink Panther's soundtrack.

We already got used with Beyonce and Jay-Z's refuse to speak to the press about their relationship and for the wedding they are more determined to keep the details a secret. However, it will be nice if some of the details of Beyonce's wedding dress, or her diamond engagement ring will spread in mass-media.

Destiny's Child singer, Beyonce who has dated rapper Jay-Z for three years, has said she finds it easy to keep her love life out of the spotlight, but I find it hard to believe that their every small wedding details will not be in the news.

It will be a small, intimate wedding with just close friends and family. Preparations are under way, but the exact date and location have yet to be decided. Both Beyonce and Jay are determined to avoid turning the day into a media circus. So only they and their parents will know the full details until the very last minute.

For some time now, Beyonce and her long term boyfriend hip-hop mogul, Jay-Z have been fighting with pregnancy rumors. The rapper Jay-Z is still refusing to speak to the press about his relationship with Beyonce Knowles, and he insists that side of him will never change.

Beyonce may have a little problem, if she has wedding intentions, because in an interview with Rolling Stones Magazine, Jay-Z revealed he has issues with getting too close to women when it comes to relationships. It seems all thanks to his father who split on him and his mom more than two decades ago.

However, as for Beyonce, Jay-Z says he's ready to be a dad in "the next five years". Lets hope it would be earlier then that ... we are more then pleased to see littles Jay-Zs and Beyonces.

I'm in love with Beyonce. When (the Destiny's Child debut album) came out, I was going to every concert, every TV show they appeared on - I could have been the 'bugaboo' they were talking about. I was backstage, trying to get it cracking.

They got the records for when you get intimate or when you're just chillin', they got the driving music, they got the club music. The slow ones are on my iPod 'Freaky Jams' playlist. Where every song makes you want to...

Beyonce Knowles on Vanity Fair cover

2005-10-15T20:22:00.000+03:00

Beyonce Knowles, who appears on the cover of Vanity Fair, is the first African-American woman to appear on the cover since Tina Turner in 1993 reports Radar Magazine.
According inside publicists, Beyonce's skin tone in the November issue of Vanity Fair is lighter, because the mag digitally altered Beyonce’s image to appear several shades lighter. It seems the idea of the magazine is lighter up the magazine and unfortunately, staffers got so carried away they ended up lightening Beyonce as well: 'Everything on the cover is bright, including the white background, to make it seem as white as can be.'

The Vanity Fair’s spokeswoman, Beth Kseniak, insisted that Beyonce's skin tone was “absolutely not” manipulated and said that any change was a result of lighting and makeup.

Yvette Noel-Schure, Beyonce’s personal publicist declared : 'There are very fair-skinned black people in this world, and Beyonce is one of them.'

Vanity Fair has not featured a solo black person on its cover since the late nineties, celebrities such as Michael Jordan, Will Smith, and Chris Rock.

Jay-Z refuse to talk about his love Beyonce

2005-09-28T19:53:00.000+03:00

Rapper Jay-Z is still refusing to speak to the press about his relationship with Beyonce Knowles, and he insists that side of him will never change.

Right. We're not going to talk about that at all. It's self-explanatory. I don't talk about it. Certain things you have to keep private.
- Jay-Z tells British magazine GQ -

On the other side, Jay Z hits out at hip-hop groupies claiming 'hip-hop is a way of life not a fashion accessory' and believes white people exploit hip-hop culture.

They think they can say those words and take ownership of hip-hop. You can't. It's a lifestyle. It's a culture. It's not just music.

It's the way you present yourself, the way you talk, it's all that. You can't just say 'holler back' and you're in. It doesn't work like that.

Look at Eminem. He grew up around the culture his whole life. He's not capitalising off the culture, in my opinion. It's what he is.
