Bossip has learned that Tyler Perry is courting after Beyoncé for a new film.

Tyler Perry is looking to cast BeyoncĂ© for his new film adaptation of “For Colored Girls.” During a recent interview on an unnamed morning show, Tyler said he would begin working on the film after the release of Why Did I Get Married 2 in April. He said amongst the actresses he would like to cast, he named Oprah, Halle Berry, Kimberly Elise, Maya Angelou, Cicely Tyson and BeyoncĂ©.

The play is based on the book “For Colored Girls who have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf” which takes a look at women’s issues including love, rape, and abortion. Tyler plans to release the movie next year.

Beyonce Did Not Leave Munchie at Columbia
Published On: Saturday, January 17th, 2009 with 1 Comment

It was such a respite both for Beyonce Knowles and for PETA. The rumor that Beyonce has dumped her dog turned out to be false. A Website ‘MusicToob.com’ reportedly said that pop star had abandoned her 5-year-old dog named Munchie, of the Shih Tzu breed with her record company. Beyonce reportedly grew tired of her dog’s misbehaving ways and left the pet with the staff at her recording studio ‘Colombia Records’ in New York about a year ago.
The PETA was worried and started to investigate the case. They say “when we got calls about rumors that BeyoncĂ© supposedly abandoned her dog Munchie at the offices of her record company, we suspected that the rumor mill wasn’t quite getting the story straight. So, we contacted Beyoncé’s people.
We’ve had an up and down relationship with the Dreamgirl over her past fur-wearing, but lately it’s been on the ups, as she hasn’t been seen in fur the past two winters. Today, we were happy to learn from Beyoncé’s rep that—as we expected—the Munchie tale is far from the truth and that the dog hasn’t even been to the record company’s offices in months.”
The rep calls Munchie a pampered pooch whom everyone adores and says that BeyoncĂ© and her cousin (the pup’s main caretaker) are still crazy in love with him. Because they travel quite a bit, Munchie is usually left with family or friends—never at the record company. We are glad to hear that BeyoncĂ© isn’t leaving her “baby boy” behind, and we’re certainly happy to hear that Munchie is “irreplaceable” to his guardians.

B & Jay On Oprah?
Published On: Tuesday, May 20th, 2008 with 4 Comments

“Word has it that newlyweds Jay-Z and Beyonce may be two of Oprah’s upcoming guests
together. Sources are buzzing that the couple is in talks to hit Lady O’s couch together some time in the near future. I literally am about to die of anxiety at just the thought. And if these two were to ever speak on their relationship in more detail than they ever have, Oprah’s couch would be the place to do it. But I have a feeling this tidbit is a bit far fetched simply because Oprah has only had 3 rappers on her show to date that I can easily remember right now–Will Smith, Diddy, and Ludacris. And all were there to promote a movie. On top of all that, O was spotted at the Jay-Z/MJB concert a couple weeks ago at Madison Square Garden, but she stayed only for Mary and left before Jay took the stage. Hmmm
 I’m still keeping hope alive though.”

Beyonce Switches Direction on New Album (?)
Published On: Thursday, November 1st, 2007 with 5 Comments

Beyoncé is planning to switch musical direction on her third solo album.

The singer is reportedly prepared to ditch her usual heavy R’n'B for a more dancefloor-orientated LP.

The former Destiny’s Child star has hired Brighton dance act Freemasons to work on some tracks for the record.

Freemasons’ James Wiltshire told the Daily Star: “The album is going to be huge.

“It will rival anything the likes of Britney and Rihanna have done recently. BeyoncĂ© and her team can see where mistakes were made on the last album.

“It was very American, very R’n'B and stripped back. They want to go for a more international sound this time.”

Beyonce Expected to Perform @ ‘World Peace Concert’
Published On: Saturday, October 20th, 2007 with 1 Comment

Laying a foundation for the growth and development of children in an atmosphere of peace and compassion is a basic requirement for all societies, says Deputy Prime Minister Libertina Amathila.

Amathila was addressing students from the Cosmos and Delta high schools in Windhoek this week during a visit by the organiser of the first World Peace Tour Concert, to be hosted in Namibia on April 22 next year.

She said Government applauds the decision of the organisers to select Namibia as the first venue for such an important global music endeavour.

Music legends such as Whitney Houston, Beyoncé, Cool and the Gang, Peabo Bryson and Celine Dion are expected to perform alongside popular and upcoming local artists.

“We believe as Government that the concert will contribute toward spreading the message of peace, compassion and hope for children who are less privileged in the world, and who need social understanding and help to realise their full human potential,”

Amadhila said.

Amadhila added that Namibia was an appropriate venue for the concert because of its stable, peaceful, friendly and democratic environment.

“We are mindful of the extensive international attention this concert draws to the country, therefore we view the concert as yet another golden opportunity to showcase Namibian hospitality, warmth and talent.”

Concert organiser Wolfgang Hildebrandt said he was excited about the concert and everybody wants to come on board.

“Every day we receive emails from Namibian artists wanting to take part in the concert, and we will be recording a theme song for the concert with the Namibian traditional group Ongombe, who will be flying to Los Angeles for the recordings,”

he said.
