UPDATE: Tina Knowles tells Ellen DeGeneres the rumor isn't true.
Could Beyonce Knowles be on way to having her own "Baby Boy"?
According to several reports, the 29-year-old singer is expecting her first child with rapper Jay-Z. The two have been married sine April 2008.
"B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn't ready to be a mother just yet," an insider told Us Weekly. "She really wanted to get her album done and tour the world again." Despite the surprise, another source claims the performer recognizes that "this is a gift from God and she's so happy."
Earlier this month, Beyonce -- who is supposedly in her first trimester -- made an appearance with Tina Knowles (her fashion designer mother) on the Today show. Check out the clip above and see if you notice anything different about her. Is that "glow" really about her mom?

Michelle Obama, Lady Gaga Top Most Powerful Women List
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television,
Pop singers Lady Gaga and Beyonce Knowles have been named in the top ten of the 2010 Forbes Most Powerful Women In The World list.
The pop stars - who collaborated on the single “Telephone” - came seventh and ninth, respectively, joining a host of political leaders including US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in the poll. American First Lady Michelle Obama - the wife of US President Barack Obama - took the number one spot.
“The women on our list, through their respective realms of power and influence, are shaping many of the agenda setting conversations of our day. They have built companies and brands, sometimes by non-traditional means, and they have broken through gender barriers in areas of commerce, politics, sports and media and cultural zeitgeist, and thereby affecting the lives of millions, sometimes billions of people,” said publisher of ForbesWoman, Moira Forbes.
Other entertainers on the list include talk show hosts Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres, who came third and tenth respectively. Check out the complete list after the jump!

Kanye’s all-star album line-up for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Collaborations, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap,
M.I.A, La Roux and Alicia Keys, among others, are set to appear on Kanye West’s new album. The ‘Runaway’ rapper announced his fifth album will be called ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ earlier this week, and while Kanye has previously confirmed certain stars will appear - including Jay-Z, RZA and Beyonce Knowles - it seems his guest list is much longer than previously thought. As well as those previously mentioned, Kanye said he’s also been in the studio with Kid Cudi, Mos Def and Santigold and that indie musician Justin Vernon is “all over” the album.
One track which has already been leaked, ‘Lost In The World’, features Justin’s vocals. Kanye’s celebrity album cast could be part of his striving to fill the gap left by ‘King Of Pop’ Michael Jackson’s sudden death last year, a role he sees himself in line to fulfill. He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “With the passing of Michael Jackson, I feel a responsibility to bring things to our generation that can inspire and bring real culture to pop culture. I don’t sleep anymore thinking how we are going to fill this gap, and create something to inspire on the level he did.”
Although Kanye has mentioned a large number of people involved with ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’, he lines are blurred between which artists will appear on the commercially released album and who will appear in his G.O.O.D Fridays series, which has so far seen mainly extended and remixed versions of tracks from the albums featuring a number of rappers and producers. ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ will be released on November 22.

—Now that her little sister is out of the picture, Beyonce took it upon herself to model the House of Dereon’s new temporary tattoo product. The tattoos were actually added to the Fall collection in an attempt to make it “ediger.”
—Lenny Kravitz recently stepped out in New York channeling his inner Marc Jacobs as he sported a cowl-neck jumper with a murse and thigh-high heeled boots to match.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Videos, Covers, Pop,
Sara Bareilles might not be willing to write you a love song because you ask for it, but she is willing to tackle a hit Beyonce tune for Billboard.
This version of “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” probably won’t inspire any YouTube dance videos, but it’ll definitely get your toes tapping.

Beyonce Escapes Car Crash
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music,
Beyonce narrowly escaped serious injury after her car door was ripped off by a taxi in London.
The “Halo” singer opened the door of her Mercedes after deciding to pop into top store Harrods en route to a restaurant in the UK capital’s Knightsbridge area. Shoppers looked on in horror as the taxi collided with the car’s door, ripping it off its hinges and missing Beyonce by just a matter of centimetres.
The pop star, who was traveling with her husband Jay-Z, looked visibly shaken after the incident.
“It was terrifying to watch. It all happened so quickly, the taxi came out of nowhere. She seemed very shaken and was lucky to be alive. A couple of seconds difference and God knows what could have happened,” a source told The Sun.
Beyonce, 28, and Jay-Z, 40, were on their way to a romantic meal at Japanese eatery Zuma when the singer decided to make her impromptu stop. After the accident, the couple were forced to dump the damaged car - and were sent a replacement to take them to the restaurant. She was later seen looking happy and relaxed after leaving Zuma with Jay-Z.
Solange Knowles Not Working For Beyonce on Dereon
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Models, News,
Although she adores shoes, Solange Knowles isn’t impressed with sister Beyonce’s junior clothing line.
The 24-year-old singer was the face of fashion line Dereon, which “Single Ladies” hitmaker Beyonce and her mother Tina launched in 2006, but stepped down because the outfits are something she wouldn’t normally wear.
“I initially was involved as the spokesperson, but the clothes just didn’t reflect my personal style and I decided to hand that over.”
Despite not being a fan of Beyonce’s fashion line, the mother-of-one loves the bedding collection she and Tina have done and would like to promote that: “That’s the great thing about my family. We work together so closely that if something’s not working out, we can be honest about it and there won’t be any grudges or issues. I will say though, they did just do a bedding line that I am extremely in love with and I was like, ‘Can I model that… in my house?”
Although Solange wouldn’t wear the clothes, the fashion line is very successful and Beyonce’s debut scent Heat has been a huge hit.

VIDEO: Glee’s Heather Morris and Her Beyonce Connection

While I am truly a fan of Glee, I am apparently not worthy “Gleek” status. In order to earn such a title, I probably should have been aware of this particular factoid by now.
In order to spare other supposed Gleeks of any possible embarrassment, I share with you the little gem I learned today.
Before her time on the series, scene stealer Heather Morris (a.k.a. Brittany) danced with none other than Beyonce. In fact, she was doing the “Single Ladies” dance long before she did it with Chris Colfer (Kurt) and Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina) on the show.
After watching her perform with Ms. Knowles above, you can watch Morris in the Glee clip after the jump. You can also see her dance with some young girls as part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
