Beyonce Poised to Take a Break in 2010

Sunday, January 17th, 2010 with 4 Comments

Beyonce’s New Year’s resolution is at once ambitious and surprising. The multitasking superstar, who was seemingly everywhere in 2009, hopes to spend a good chunk of 2010 not working.
“It’s definitely time to take a break, to recharge my batteries,” says Beyoncé, 28. “I’d like to take about six months and not go into the studio. I need to just live life, to be inspired by things again.”

Not that Beyoncé won’t be visible in the coming months. Just a few days before Christmas, she’s in Long Island City, shooting a pair of commercials for the Nintendo video game Style Savvy, which is introducing items from Deréon, a casual lifestyle extension of the House of Deréon line that Beyoncé created with longtime fashion adviser Tina Knowles— also her mom. The spots will air on Nickelodeon in March, in the week before the Kids’ Choice Awards and during the show.

Before that, of course, Beyoncé will perform on the Grammy Awards broadcast Jan. 31 on CBS, where she’s up for 10 trophies, more than any other artist, including album, record and song of the year. The last is for her slamming manifesto Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It), one of 2009’s most ubiquitous singles (3.5 million downloads sold) and its most-streamed video. The album, I Am … Sasha Fierce, has sold 2.7 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

“I still haven’t really digested it yet,” Beyoncé says. The Grammy nominations were announced Dec. 2, two days before her spouse and fellow pop icon Jay-Z turned 40. “I was focused so much on my husband’s birthday — I threw a big party — that I didn’t really think about it. But it’s really an honor.”

Tina Files for Divorce from Mathew

Sunday, December 20th, 2009 with 6 Comments

Beyonce’s mother, Tina Knowles, has filed for divorce from the pop diva’s father and manager, Mathew Knowles. Tina Knowles began legal proceedings Nov. 11, according to documents filed with the Harris County Court Clerk. She launched the House of Dereon clothing line with Beyonce in 2006.

“The decision to end our marriage is an amicable one. We remain friends, parents, and business partners,” the couple said in a statement provided to The Associated Press on Friday. “If anyone is expecting an ugly messy fight, they will be sadly disappointed. We ask for your respect of our privacy as we handle this matter.”

The divorce filing came about a month after Mathew Knowles was named in a paternity suit. Los Angeles resident Alexsandra Wright claims in the lawsuit that he is the father of her unborn child.

Tina and Mathew Knowles wed in 1980. In addition to 27-year-old Beyonce, they have another daughter, 23-year-old singer Solange.

As Kanye West infamously pointed out at the 2009 VMAs, Beyonce made one of the best videos of all-time. “Out of all my videos, (”Single Ladies”) was the least expensive and took the least amount of time, and it ended up being the most iconic,” Billboard’s 2009 Woman of the Year reflects. “But once we got on the set, it was like, wait a minute. This is something special.” Not only did the ubiquitous clip inspire thousands of YouTube imitations, it also helped push her “I Am… Sasha Fierce” album to last over a year on the Billboard 200 chart.
