Beyonce and Jay-Z to Buy Neverland Ranch?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Rumors,
Beyonce and Jay-Z are looking to buy Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch.
The "Love on Top" singer and her rapper husband were given a tour of the $30 million ranch in Santa Barbara, California by owner Thomas Barack Jr, according to The Sun newspaper.
The famous 3,000-acre ranch - which was named after the fictitious magical island in children's story 'Peter Pan' - was home to the late King of Pop between 1988 and 2005 and has largely been abandoned since the singer's death in 2009. Beyonce, 31, and Jay-Z, 43, spend most of the time in the rapper's home state of New York with their 13-month-old daughter Blue Ivy, but also spend some months as a family in Beyonce's hometown of Houston, Texas.
Meanwhile, the "Single Ladies" hitmaker opened up about her marital life in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on Saturday, telling the talk show host that she "would not be the woman I am if I did not go home to that man."

Beyonce Wants Documentary to Inspire Blue Ivy
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Documentary, Drama, Music, Celeb News, New Releases,
Beyonce hopes her new documentary will inspire her daughter.
The superstar decided to create her new tell-all HBO film Life is But a Dream to give her 13-month-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter - whom she has with husband Jay-Z - a source of strength and inspiration in the future and make her proud to see where she came from.
Speaking at the film's New York City premiere last night, she said, "I hope that she will see all of the beautiful times [and] all the tough times that led up to her being here. I'm hoping that... it can comfort her and inspire her in her life when she needs it."
While the 31-year-old singer believes it's important for every woman to retain an air of mystique, she felt the time was right to share her story with the world and celebrate the new stage in her life: "Mystique is very important... It doesn't matter if you're a celebrity - just as a woman - I think it's important. But, at the same time, I felt like it was time for me to share my story because I've been through so much and I have so much to celebrate, so much to share."

Grammy Awards 2013 Fashion Breakdown
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,
The Grammy Awards red carpet was a little more conservative this year, thanks to the dress code placed by CBS; unfortunately, the restrictions seem to have negatively affected celebrity attendees' styles.
While there were many fashion mistakes at the music ceremony, Rihanna stood out among the rest in her gorgeous red Alaia number, straying from her usual provocative style to adhere to the TV network's fashion guidelines (though she raised eyebrows when she confirmed her reconciliation with Chris Brown).
Two Broke Girls star Kat Dennings opted for Vivienne Westwood (seen after the jump). Though the blue minidress accentuates the 26 year-old's curves, it resembles too much of printed bubblewrap.

Beyonce Knowles Is Proud of Her “Powerful” Image
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Features,
Beyonce Knowles believes she is a "powerful" woman.
The "Run The World (Girls)" chart-topper has finally fulfilled her life-long ambition to become a symbol of success and empowerment for ladies across the globe, but still finds it difficult to comprehend how much influence she has.
Speaking to the new issue of GQ, she mused, "When I was writing the Destiny's Child songs, it was a big thing to be that young and taking control. And the label at the time didn't know that we were going to be that successful, so they gave us all control. And I got used to it. It is my goal in life to be that example. I now know that, yes, I am powerful. I'm more powerful than my mind can even digest and understand."
The 31-year-old R&B superstar sacrificed her childhood to make it in the music industry after forming the original Destiny's Child line-up aged just eight, and believes she is now perfectly entitled to sit back and enjoy her success:

Beyonce and Lady Gaga Team Up Again?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Collaborations, Gossip, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap, Pop, R&B / Soul,
Beyonce and Lady Gaga have hinted at a new collaboration.
The pair - who appeared together on 2009 hit "Telephone" and extended version "Video Phone" - have fueled rumors they have returned to the studio by posting pictures of them wearing similar earrings. In November, Gaga posted a photograph on Instagram of a pair of earrings engraved with the word "Ratchet," while in December, Beyonce posted two photos of similar pieces of jewelry. On December 29, Beyonce posted a photo of the bamboo earrings alongside a pair of purple printed flat shoes, and followed it up the next day with another image of herself wearing the earrings.
It is thought they refer to a track called "Ratchet," which is also set to include rapper Azealia Banks, and may be released later this month as the lead single from Gaga's new album, ARTPOP.

"I am a Beyonce fan and I am going to be watching this documentary even if she doesn't introduce us to new stuff... I want to watch it. Fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning so I can understand what she says - because you know Beyonce can’t talk. Beyonce sounds like she has a fifth grade education... I just said, I'm a fan but lets call a spade a spade."

Robert De Niro and Jay-Z’s Heated Row
Robert De Niro allegedly picked a fight with Jay-Z last weekend. The Godfather II actor called the rap mogul out for being disrespectful in front of a collection of A-list guests including Martin Scorsese and Cameron Diaz at Leonardo DiCaprio's 38th birthday party, accusing Jay-Z of never returning his calls.
"Bob was sitting at a table, and when Jay-Z went over to say hello, De Niro told Jay that he never called him back. Bob wasn't in any mood to make polite conversation. He told Jay that if somebody calls you six times, you call them back. It doesn't matter who you are, that is just rude," a source said.
