Howard Stern Exposes Beyonce Lip Syncing

Apparently Beyonce isn't really that good a singer live and Howard Stern proved it. Back in November 2008, Beyonce performed on the Today show and she really destroyed her song. 

Poor Beyonce, I wonder which enemy released this track to Howard Stern to expose Beyonce for the singer she really is. Wow, this is really going to hurt her. I always thought she was a fantastic singer, and I still do. 

From what I understand, if you know you're not singing live, you simply don't try as hard. And Beyonce is no different. So, will Howard Stern have Beyonce on to prove she can sing? I hope so.

And forthose of you who aren't familiar with the Enrique Iglesias fiasco, go to 3:10 on the video and you'll understand what Howard Stern is talking about.

UPDATE: It was all a freakin' hoax. Wow, some people have waaaaaay too much time on their hands. And yes, I am one of them. 

Celebrity Flaw of the Day - Beyonce Cellulite

Beyonce is a helluva beautiful girl, it's true, but even Beyonce suffers from cellulite. And even though it looks like she doesn't have that much cellulite, you need to keep in mind that if I were hella rich and new that I was going to be wearing a bikini and that paparazzi would likely catch it on camera, I would get some serious cellulite treatments beforehand. And you can bet your ass Beyonce did.

It's obvious she works out because her abs are made of all kinds of steel, but girlfriend has thunder thighs and the cellulite that comes with them. I still love Beyonce and I'm sure that Jay-Z also feels good when he feels her up.

Beyonce Obsessed Trailer

Here is Beyonce's new movie called "Obsessed" starring Sasha Fierce herself and Ali Larter. The story is essentially based on "Fatal Attraction" but with much sexier people in it.

Beyonce plays the plain Jane wife and Ali Larter is the crazy sexy chick at the office who becomes obsessed with Beyonce's husband (hence the movie title).

Beyonce has come a long way when it comes to acting but it looks like she's just an afterthought in the flick... until the crazy fight at the end, that is.

Beyonce's Diva Video

Beyonce wants to be clear that a "Diva" is a female version of a hustler. And boy is Beyonce working on her new album as Sasha Fierce. So that's where those ugly glasses came into play; Beyonce wears them in her "Diva" video.

I have to admit that Beyonce is the kind of woman you just can't your eyes off of. She has her "Sasha Fierce" persona down pat.

Add to all that some black and white choreography, and Beyonce has herself the makings of a killer video that will get plenty of airplay on the Net. I say the Net because there simply are no music channels that play any music videos anymore. Go Beyonce.

Beyonce's Mom Slapped Her For Diva Behavior

Beyonce's mom, Tina Knowles, told Elle magazine that there was a time when Beyonce was acting like a diva and she slapped her straight across the face.

When her husband told Tina Knowles, "What are you doing?!? She has the number 1 song on the radio."

Tina Knowles replied, "I don’t care!' I taught [Beyonce] to pick up [her] own suitcase. Pretty is as pretty does. Like my mother said, 'You got to be cute on the inside'."

Oh man, would I have loved to be a fly on the wall when Beyonce got slapped across the face for pulling a diva moment. Hilarious. Or, fierce, rather...

Celebrity Flaw of the Day - Beyonce Hairy Armpits

Beyonce is hot, yes, we all know that too well. But even Beyonce sometimes steps out forgetting to make herself look flawless and ends up with... you guessed it... hairy armpits.

Beyonce was out promoting her new movie Cadillac Records and, although she looked great, those little hairs peeking out from her armpits were truly disturbing.

Beyonce is a trendy person and knowing her adoring fans, they'll probably start donning hairy armpits just to be like her. Sheep.

Beyonce's Weird Sunglasses

Beyonce is usually a trend setter with her elegant ad sometimes very provocative style. But it looks like Beyonce is taking fashion tips from her disaster of a sister Solange Knowles.

Beyonce was seen sporting sunglasses made of "fringes." Remember fringe jackets in the '80s? Yeah, like that. I have no idea what was going through her head... maybe she did it on a dare, or maybe somebody paid Beyonce $1 million to don them.

Either way, would be caught dead in these Beyonce sunglasses? Yeah, me neither.

Beyonce's AMA Performance

Beyonce did her song and dance on November 23, 2008 at the AMAs and boy did she ever knock it out of the ballpark.

Beyonce performed "Single Ladies" and had the entire audience on their feet as she portrayed her Sasha Fierce persona. And yes, she did the same choreography but I have to say, it is always entertaining to watch Beyonce no matter what she does.

Beyonce really knows how to keep a crowd entertained and she did it effortlessly at the AMAs.

Justin Timberlake and Beyonce on SNL

Justin Timberlake showed up on Saturday Night Live on Saturday, November 15, 2008 in a leotard and heels to parody her song "Ladies Night" but this time Beyonce ends up looking like the backup dancer.

It was awesome because Justin Timberlake is really hilarious and has a flair for the funny (save for that piece of crap called The Love Guru) and he's wearing a leotard and heels.

So check out Justin Timberlake and Beyonce on Saturday Night Live, and enjoy it.

Sasha Fierce Promo Pictures

Beyonce wasn't kidding; she's taking this Sasha Fierce thing to the max and has released these promo pictures to show just how serious she is. Beyonce looks great, I have to admit, but what's with the angular outfits and the motorcycle duds?

Beyonce really knows how to get attention, but I think it would serve her better to just show off her Sasha Fierce persona in the nude. Yeah, that's sounds like a great idea. Beyonce should consider it.

Beyonce is Sasha Fierce

No seriously. Beyonce wants to be known as Sasha Fierce for her new album of the same title that is due out on November 18, 2008. Apparently, Sasha Fierce is her alter ego and takes over on stage turning her into this wicked performer who is just outspoken and crazy. Oh, shut up.

Yeah, so Beyonce wants everyone to think of her as Sasha Fierce, which really sounds like a drag queen name to be quite honest and does nothing for her image but make her sound incredibly stupid. But then, sometimes stupid needs to come out and play, too.

So Beyonce is Sasha Fierce. Hey, it all worked out well for Garth Brooks when he became Chris Gaines and for Diddy who became Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, and so on and so forth.

Beyonce Celebrity Prom Dress

The Beyonce dress …one of our favorite prom dresses this year. Who but Beyonce could wear this fabulous tangerine and gold gown? YOU of course. This 100% silk satin gown is bias cut for a beautiful fit and the back is open to the waist. Liquid beaded straps are 2 inches wide and match the liquid beading that trims the low cut (to the waist) back. Tiny rhinestones cross-high on the dress’s back to assure that the straps stay in place even during the wildest dance at prom. This prom gown is available in four beautiful shades: tangerine, black, grape and turquoise.

Beyonce's If I Were A Boy Video

So here's the world premiere of Beyonce's new song called If I Were A Boy. It's a slow melody and it really doesn't cut it for me.

It sounds pretty tame, and Ciara's Like A Boy is 10 times better than this crud.

Looks to me like Beyonce might be taking some singing advice from her loser sister Solange.

Justin Timberlake Bar Brawl

While Justin Timberlake was out in New York's Rainbow Bar on September 5, 2008, celebrating his new duet with Beyonce called "Until the End of Time" after the Fashion Rocks 5 show, a female fan managed to sneak into the VIP area and snapped a picture of Justin Timberlake, which really upset his bodyguard.

As the bodyguard snatched the camera away from the girl to delete the image, her male friends jumped in to protect her, leaving Justin Timberlake wide open and nearly costing him harm to his very pretty face (and body).

Fortunately, Justin Timberlake managed to avoid bodily harm, and, although the bodyguard managed to get rid of the picture, he did end up getting tossed out of the club for his demeanor.

Justin Timberlake & Beyonce - Fashion Rocks 2008

At the Fashion Rocks 5 show on September 5, 2008, Justin Timberlake and Beyonce rocked the house, which begs the question: Why isn't their duet entitled "Until the End of Time" getting a helluva lot more airplay?

And yes, Mary J. Blige and Kid Rock were also part of the show but Justin Timberlake and Beyonce were the highlight no doubt.

All in all, the performances included the songs "Give Me One More Chance," "Stop! In The Name of Love," "Got To Give It Up," "I'm Losing You," "Papa Was A Rolling Stone," and "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing." It was pretty damn phenomenal and methinks that Justin Timberlake and Beyonce could easily make many more millions if they got together for more than one song and whored it up on stage together.

Solange Knowles Releases Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams

Beyonce managed to make herself a brand name, thanks to the help of her father and his marketing genius. It also helped that Beyonce was smart enough to know when to shut her mouth and respect the press.

Unfortunately, it looks like even his best efforts won't help Beyonce's younger sister Solange Knowles get anywhere. They tried to give Solange's a career boost in 2003, but then she got knocked up and that had to be put on the back burner.

Now, as they try once again to revive her never-breathing career, Solange proves that she's so stupid that she doesn't know when a show is on live and chastises the interviewer on FOX 5 Vegas for something that never actually happened. She really is a jackass and should probably give up on the music and stick to motherhood.

Beyonce Interesting Facts

Beyonce considers herself a very shy person and in order to get over this shyness she created a stage persona named Sasha.

In 2000, Beyonce and her group Destiny’s Child toured as the opening act for Christina Aguilera.

In 2005, Beyonce launched a clothing line called House of Dereon with her mother Tina Knowles.



Beyonce Biography

Born on September 4, 1981 to parents Tina and Matthew Knowles, Beyonce was the eldest of two girls (she has a younger sister named Solange) growing up in Houston, Texas.

It didn’t take long for her parents to notice Beyonce’s huge artistic talents and, by the time she was 7 years old, she was taking dance classes and singing as a soloist in the church choir.

Beyonce’s dance instructor took a personal interest in her and began taking her to various song and dance competitions, of which Beyonce won over 30.

Beyonce on Star Search

By the time she was 9, it was clear to Beyonce what her future held, so she and her three friends, LaTavia Roberson, Kelly Rowland and LeToya Tuckett formed a quartet and named themselves Girl’s Tyme.

The girls got their big break when they appeared on the hit talent show Star Search in 1992, but were incredibly disappointed when they lost. By this time, however, Beyonce’s father decided that he wanted to help his daughter and her friends make their dreams come true, so he quit his job with Xerox and began shopping the girls around to various music labels in an attempt to get them a record deal.

This sacrifice took a toll on the Knowles family; it forced them to move into two different apartments, each one smaller than the last. But by 1996, the group was finally signed to Columbia records and it looked like Matthew’s sacrifices would pay off.

Destiny’s Child releases No, No, No

Meanwhile, Beyonce was still attending the High School for Visual and Performing Arts in Houston and eventually moved to Alief Elsik High School, where she graduated.

By 1998, Girl’s Tyme, now renamed Destiny’s Child, released its first self-titled album, and garnered major success, thanks, in part, to producers Wyclef Jean and Jermaine Dupri.

Their debut album went platinum, but unfortunately, things began to change within the group. By this time, however, the girls had quickly assembled a sophomore effort and, by 1999, The Writing’s on the Wall made its appearance on store shelves.

Two of the members, LaTavia and LeToya, felt that Beyonce’s dad was playing favorites and putting Beyonce on the forefront and taking the lion’s share of the profits, so they left the group.

Destiny’s Child - the trio

But when they saw that the group recruited two new members in Michelle Williams and Farrah Franklin, the girls decided to sue Beyonce, her dad and the band for breach of contract.

The case went nowhere, and five months later, Farrah Franklin also left the band for personal reasons, making Destiny’s Child a trio, which it would remain. By 2000, The Writing’s on the Wall was certified 11 times platinum and Destiny’s Child was riding high.

Beyonce in Goldmember

By the time 2001 rolled around, the girls were ready to showcase exactly why they were mainstays in the music industry with their third effort, Survivor. Beyonce was also branching out into acting; she costarred alongside Mekhi Pfifer in Carmen: A Hip Hopera and by 2002, she found herself starring alongside Mike Myers in the blockbuster hit Austin Powers in Goldmember.

Beyonce is Dangerously In Love

By 2003, Beyonce released her first solo effort, Dangerously In Love, to the joy of millions of fans. The album debuted at #1 on Billboard and hit singles like “Crazy In Love,” “Baby Boy” and “Me. Myself & I” cemented her place in the music industry.

The next year, Destiny’s Child headed back to the studio to record what would be their last album together. The album, fittingly called Destiny Fulfilled, was certified 3 times platinum and garnered hit singles like “Soldier” and “Lose My Breath.”

And after their 2005 worldwide concert, the girls decided to go their separate ways and venture into new territory.

Beyonce releases B’Day

Beyonce, however, knew what she wanted to do, and got to work on her new album and began taking acting classes.

By 2006, Beyonce had accomplished much; she starred in The Pink Panther opposite Steve Martin, she released B’Day, her sophomore solo effort, and she starred with Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy and Jamie Foxx in the award-winning film Dreamgirls.

B’Day came in at #1 in its first week of release, selling 541,000 copies, and has been certified 2 times platinum. Not one to rest on her laurels, however, Beyonce went on a worldwide tour called The Beyonce Experience.

On the personal front, Beyonce was dating rapper Jay-Z since 2002, and, although the couple remains mum about their personal lives, they were married in a hush-hush wedding ceremony on April 4, 2008. Rumor has it that the two are expecting their first child together.

Celebrity Flaw of the Day - Beyonce Hair

We all know that Beyonce's hair is completely fake, but one would think that, with the kind of dough this chick is raking in, she'd be able to afford some quality hairstyling. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case in this image. She is one beautiful woman, no doubt, but when the hair comes off, she must look a mess.
