Beyonce leaving Harvey Nichols department store in London (6/9)
I think some celebrities eventually get to a point where they're so damn rich, they're just looking for crazy shit to do to waste their money. Have a car pick me up and take me across the street? Sure, why not? From the London Evening Standard:
Beyonce Knowles had two people carriers and several staff to transport her 14 METRES (46 feet) across the road. The singer made her entire entourage use the cars to cross Knightsbridge from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel to Harvey Nichols. A huge crowd of fans and photographers gathered outside the hotel yesterday and had expected a drawn-out game of cat and mouse through London.
But instead, the cars packed with bodyguards and personal assistants drove a few metres along the road and pulled a U-turn down the other side — a total of just 14 metres — to drop off the 27-year-old. She then stepped out in a jumpsuit, oversized sunglasses and Louis Vuitton sandals to be given a 20-minute guided tour of the department store. The group then returned to the people carriers and made the same trip back to their hotel.
Beyonce needed a car to drive her 46 feet? Bitch probably has closets in her house that are longer than that. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if next week there's an article about her helicopter flights from her bedroom to her bathroom. All of which leads to one important question that still remains unanswered: Does Beyonce pay someone to crumple up 20s to throw at the help, or does she do it herself?

Beyonce performing in Rockefeller Plaza for The Today Show (11/26/2008)
Howard Stern managed to get the "board feed" from Beyonce's performance on The Today Show last year. Basically, it's her real singing voice without any mixing or editing. And not surprisingly, it's bad. Real bad. Like, if this was a cartoon, an uptight businessman would be holding a glass of coffee and it would just shatter all over his new suit once Beyonce started singing. And then a dog with a cloud of hearts above his head would start humping her leg.
Beyonce better watch her back. Michelle Obama is *this* close to going Chris Brown on her ass. The first lady is not pleased with how Beyonce's acting around her husband. A source told the National Enquirer:
"Beyonce has spent months gushing over President Obama, and when she was in the same room with him, she couldn't tear her eyes away from him. Before things got out of hand, Michelle got word to Beyonce to tone things down or risk being banned from the White House in the future.
"On President Obama's big night, Michelle was cordial to Beyonce, but gave her the cold shoulder at the inauguration festivites. When Beyonce went to hug her, Michelle gave her a forced smile and clutched her hand instead." (Print Edition - 2/9)
It must be nice holding a grudge against someone and being in such a high position of authority. For example, I'd love to send my neighbor to Guantanamo at the snap of my finger. Let's see his bitch ass try to blast his stereo at 2 AM when he's locked in a 4x8 cell. Damn I want to be first lady . . . is Barack into white guys or is he strictly a ladies man? I'm practically disease free if that helps.
Pretty much every celebrity is on vacation right now for New Year's. Pictured: Beyonce's ass in St. Bart's yesterday. Not pictured: Balance, athleticism, anything under a size XL.
Though she still hasn't even confirmed that she and Jay-Z are married, Beyoncé was sporting a pretty nice 18 carat wedding ring Friday night at the Fashion Rocks event in New York. I bet it's fake. From People magazine:
All eyes were on Beyoncé Friday night, when, for the first time, the singer publicly displayed her wedding ring on the red carpet for Fashion Rocks at Radio City Music Hall in N.Y.C. The singer, 27, who secretly married rapper Jay-Z in April, flashed an 18 carat flawless diamond by Lorraine Schwartz, valued at more than $5 million dollars, according to the jeweler. (Source)
Sure her diamond ring is 18 carats, but more importantly: what's its clarity? What's its color? Is it GIA certified? Now I know some of you might be asking yourselves how is it that I happen to know so much about diamonds and the answer to that question may come as a bit of a shock. This fall I plan on making a very special proposal to my girlfriend: "Get your smuggle-hole back to Sierra Leone or I'm calling the INS!"
