Beyonce In France+Rumors Of James Bond Song
Stephanie on May 22, 2008 at 6:24 pm (6 months ago)
Singer Beyonce Knowles, who was spotted at an airport in France today, is rumored to be in talks with longtime James Bond composer John Barry, to record the new theme song for the upcoming film, Quantum Solace. British singer Amy Winehouse was originally chosen to record the theme but was apparently dropped after producer Mark Ronsom deemed her “Incapable of recording music at the moment”.
And in other BK news, the singer’s duet with Latina pop star Shakira, Beautiful Liar, was recently named Best Selling British Song at the Ivor Novello Awards. Who did Beyonce and Shakira beat out for that title? Amy Winehouse of course. Her Rehab single was #2.

Beyonce looks nice, she knows how to dress the part and if I didn’t know any better I’d swear the dude (bodyguard) is her man.
Amy Winehouse needs help in the worst way. I wonder who she has in her corner to help her help herself.
Dana said,
Beyonce is lining everything up for her new cd release later on this year. Good for her and happy she got both chances. In the end Beyonce keeping her nose and veins clean will work to her advantage. She’s a positive sister doing positive things. Amy needs to get her situation together. The media kissing her butt is sick. Only a White junkie could get so much good press for doing something that is not only bad for you but illegal.
jerseybred said,
Agreed Dana, Amy gets to much press and her skin makes my skin crawl.
Melissa said,
Looks like the Carters are on vacation! Beyonce looks nice. I see she’s sporting Chanel again, so I guess that rumored endorsement is true. The James Bond theme song is a good look for her too. Sistah girl is hard working!
Majesa said,
She looks good there, someone got a brand new wig.If she’s going to do the song then good for her and I’ll look forward to hearing it. But darn, I was really hoping that Amy Winehouse would do the song. She brings a certain something to the table, a certain realness and rawness, and it’s a shame that her issues hold her back so severely. A pitiful shame.
Liyah said,
I hear you Majesa. Yes she has a brand new “bright” Wig. Melissa, is that why she is holding the pocket book like that? Its either that or the OTHER speculation. (whistling & looking around)

I LUV BEYONCE…GOOD FOR HER!!!!!!
IRIS said,
i agree dana, and amy needs help. they had no business signing that girl. she can barely take care of herself let alone work…B does look good there and even though i think they should go with a british artist. i can understand wanted to have a star and a professional and B is both.
lady said,
I love her bodyguard lol.I think he is so sexy. He alway protecting her. Now that how jay should be on her. Yes she does look good. But why she holding that bag like that mmmmmmm.
MRS. JONES3 said,
i agree, b’s bodyguard is kinda sexy. they actually look cute together, lol, too bad she’s already commited her life to jay. but i actually like amy whinehouse, i’m sure she would have been great for the song, but she is having problems and she needs to sort through them. i heard though, that the reason she is not singing the song is because SHE said she does not think she should be recording music at the moment

Beyonce Knowles = overrated, overhyped and overexposed. End of discussion.
Tanya said,
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I think Beyonce is a great singer and entertainer. She works hard and has great work ethics and she deserves everything good that happens to her. It also shows that she is a professional and easy to work with that others always ask her to join in on their projects.
It is really a shame about Amy Winehouse. She really needs help…because I don’t see this ending very well for her.
......... said,
YAWN……Brown Sista posting about Beyonce Knowles……AGAIN. Get out of her A$$ will ya. Why don’t you just change the site to the Beyonce Knowles web site, since 95% of your post are about her anyway.

I AGREE THIS ***** CANT SING OR ACT SICK OF HER IM A RIHANNA FAN NOW
Chey said,
Amy Winehouse has some demons to deal with and needs major help, but her CD is very, very nice and soulful. That’s sad, because I think her voice on a James Bond track would have been great.

BEYONCE CANT SING BUT RIHANNA CAN? OH PLEASE… LMAO
U MUST BE ON SOMETHING….. WHY DOES SHE HAVE TO BE A *****? IF U DONT LIKE HER THATS FINE BUT TO CALL HER A ***** IS OUT OF LINE!!!!!
Raliyah said,
Beyonce is a good entertainer but I hope she doesn’t overexposed herself to the media too much. You know what happen to J.Lo with that big over drive we had with her. J.lo got replace with Eva longoria to the new scene. For some reason I have this funny feeling that the media is setting Beyonce up to be replace by Rihanna and it is gradually happening. You know how the entertainment industry is out with the old in with the new.

LoL. You have posted in this thread TWICE
You bypassed all the other posts on the front page about other sistas just so you could talk about Beyonce- AGAIN.
You then went roaming around the site and posted about Beyonce again in Kelly Rowland’s post. For someone who is tired of Beyonce you sure do want to talk about her a lot.

To all you Beyonce haters…….
1) I hope that her James Bond song is a smash hit so that way you’ll have to hear it all over the radio.
2) I hope the song is nominated for an academy award so that way you’ll have to watch and hear her performe the song live on the academy awards show early next year.
3) I hope the song WINS(!) the academy award.
Now! What do all of you Beyonce haters think about that?
obama~honey said,
Beyonce is so classy in that shot. Chanel from head to toe! Killing that look and that bag is FIRE!
We should be proud of our sista and support. She is a chill person. If u really look at it, Beyonce rarely speaks to the media…so I don’t get it when they say “overexposed”. They chase her down and snap her photo, and she occasionally works or is out with her husband. People act like she s Paris Hiltton or Lyndsy Lohan just outside for nothing.
This girl is really respected and has a fabulous work ethic…..NO COKED OUT REPUTATION or crack pipe action like Amy Winehouse……Beyonce…do your thing baby!

Kelis said,
Beyonce looks fab! I know she’s ready to enjoy her time in France with her hubby! Maybe, this is their honeymoon since his tour is over. I definitely think she has a deal with Chanel cause she’s been rocking it lately. Can’t wait to her the Bond theme song! Love to see successsful, postive brown sistahs getting their shine on!

If only Rihanna’s numbers could top Beyonce’s than she would be a shoe-in due to the blog hype. BUT, Rihanna’s Tour reviews are THE WORST, It took her almost a YEAR to go Platinum Even with Umbrella Being THE SECOND BIGGEST SONG OF THE YEAR 07. I’m sorry to say but, No matter how bad ppl want her to replace Beyonce, It will only happen on Blogs and only when you talkin about her fashion at that LOL! Outside of Blogs SHE HOLDS VERY LITTLE WEIGHT, ESPECIALLY ON STAGE! I’M JUST SAYIN THE TRUTH!

I’m a fan of Amy’s, but I’m glad she didn’t get this song. She needs to get help first and deal with her career when she’s ready to.

K&C said,
to be honest i wanted amy 2 do the theme song so bad but why did they choose beyonce with all the talented british singers we have i just don’t get it and even beyonce aint the best singer in the US.
IRIS said,
@OBAMA~HONEY, currently, she isn’t over exposed but she has been in the past. especially when they have those cinergy projects. ie, movie, endorsements and album drop all at once. then she is everywhere doing interviews and and performing. now not so much.
