PETA closes case on Beyoncé's shih tzu

An investigation into reports that Beyoncé had abandoned her pet shih tzu has been stopped after PETA officials learned that there is no truth to the rumours.

 

Reports had suggested that Munchie was left with staff at her New York record label after the singer grew tired of the dog, according to WENN.

 

A spokeswoman for the animal rights group said: "We've had an up and down relationship with Beyoncé 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.

 

"We were happy to learn from Beyoncé's rep that, as we suspected, the Munchie tale is far from the truth, and that the dog hasn't even been to the record company's offices in months."

 

Beyoncé was previously targeted by the group after she used fur in her fashion line. The singer was later sent a fake fur throw as a wedding present by the group in the hope that it would change her attitude towards wearing fur.

Beyoncé 'fights' to keep marriage going

Wednesday, April 22 2009, 14:32 BST

Beyoncé has revealed that she constantly works to keep her marriage to Jay-Z strong.

 

The 'Halo' singer, who tied the knot with Jay-Z in a private ceremony last April, admitted that she was always fighting to improve the quality of her life and further her career.

 

"Everything that's worth anything you have to fight for," MusicNews quotes her as saying.

 

"You have to fight in your relationships, I have to fight for my career, I have to fight to stay in shape, because I get tempted to eat good old chocolate, and all this stuff everybody loves. It's all a fight, but it's worth it."

 

The 27-year-old went on to add that she was starting to feel out of touch with new social networking sites.

 

"My sister Solange is the Twitter queen. She told me about the twittering, but I don't get it, I feel like I'm getting really old. I'm like, what? I don't understand. Just call me," she remarked.

I'll post anything in this quiet forum :P lol

Misleading title :lol: True but exaggerated...

LMAO. I was going to change the title, but I figured it would bring people into the forum :P

Has anyone else won tickets for the special beyonce show at the O2 arena on November 15th?

 

I just won 2 tickets :yahoo: !! Ordered the tickets through ticketmaster with the special code and they are up in the gods on level 4, but they are free so I'm not complaining lol!! I'm so excited that I'm gonna see her next Monday and now in November :D!!

 

 

Details of the competiton are here:

Just a warning that lots of people are not recieving the emails to say they have won or that they have entered - I think AOL email addresses do not work for sure (as I tried that with 2 different AOL accounts and didn't recieve any confirmation emails). My work email address worked though. Just bear that in mind when entering! ;) Not sure about hotmail accounts etc.

Michelle Williams

By Nick Levine, Music Editor

 

 

Beyoncé's filling arenas on her 'I Am...' tour, Kelly's filling dancefloors with a little help from French DJ David Guetta, and now Michelle's about to fill London's Cambridge Theatre as murderous showgirl Roxie Hart in Chicago. With just two weeks until her first night, how's she feeling about her West End debut? We interrupted Michelle's daily rehearsals to find out, taking the opportunity to ask about her recent solo album and a certain bootylicious R&B trio as well.

 

What made you want to appear in Chicago?

"Well, the musical itself is obviously legendary and I'd have been a fool not to attach myself to it. Also, I felt it was time for me to get back on that theatre stage. In between each album I want to take on some kind of theatre project and I seem to be managing it so far."

 

How are rehearsals going?

"Well, I'm really having fun identifying who Roxie is, though it's taken me a while! It's just been this past day that I've really been able to get my head around her spirit. I've actually realised that the character of Roxie has a lot of similarities to my grandmother. My grandmother was born in 1920, so she was actually alive in Roxie's era, and like Roxie she ran away and eloped. You know, my grandmother got married in a courthouse and never even had a reception."

 

Is it hard getting into the mindset of a murderer?

"You know, I haven't even thought of it that way! I guess I'll have to think about it at rehearsal today and then call you back to let you know! So far I haven't really looked at Roxie as a murderer to be honest. She just seems really sweet to me, though at the same time she can be really mean and manipulative."

 

Last year you released Unexpected, your first pop album as a solo artist. Were you pleased with how it was received?

"Of course I wanted better sales and to be able to tour, but I was pleased with the reception it got considering it was my very first mainstream pop album. I'm kinda known as a gospel girl, so I think I have to push a little harder to make people believe I can also do pop music. I think the album did well at getting that message across."

 

Were you disappointed that 'We Break The Dawn' - the frankly fantastic lead single - didn't become a bigger hit?

"I'm going to be honest with you, I was disappointed. I worked with some great producers on that song, as I did with all the songs on the album. I really feel my album was able to stand with all the other pop albums that came out in 2008. Like I said, this was my first one and I just have to keep going to prove I can do this kind of music."

 

Are there any plans for an album reissue?

"I've been told that's the plan by the folks here at Sony in London. If so, I'm very excited about that! There's a possibility that I might record some new tracks for the reissue. I also have a remix album that's completely done, so I might be able to put some of those tracks on there. The remixes have a lot of real instruments on them and they offer a jazzy, hip-hoppish take on some of the songs from the album."

 

Have you had a chance to hang out with Kelly since she reached number one with 'When Love Takes Over'?

"I know, I'm so excited for her! We actually celebrated together the other night. We had dinner at Nobu and then we went on to a club called Mo*vida. Normally when we go out we're very reserved, but every now and then we'll get up for a shimmy."

 

Are you keen to record a big dance song like 'When Love Takes Over'?

"Actually, I just did a big dance song with Ultra Naté. We sing it as a duet and it's called 'I'm Waiting On You'. They're doing the final revisions on it at the moment and I'm very, very excited about it. I think it's for her record, but it's a big track so of course I'll put it on mine too."

 

Finally, there's a rumour going round that Destiny's Child are contractually obliged to reform for one last album. Is there any truth to this?

"You know, I honestly don't know. Is there anybody from Sony on the line to help me out? I'm not giving you the answer I've been told to give or anything, but to my understanding I'm not obligated. Would I be up for a reunion? Oh definitely, but one day in the future when everybody's ready to do the group thing again."

 

Michelle Williams stars in Chicago at London's Cambridge Theatre from July 13 to August 23.

Hmmm, a re-issue of the album sounds interesting. Her album did kick the $h!t out of the recent Beyonce and Kelly albums so she deserves some sucsess.

R&B star Beyonce has been announced as US music magazine Billboard's woman of the year for "inspiring the music business with her success".

 

The singer, whose latest album was a US number one and spawned a string of hit singles, is also being honoured for her influence on pop culture.

 

Previous recipients of the award have included R&B singer Ciara and country music star Reba McEntire.

 

Beyonce will collect her award at a gala in New York on 2 October.

 

'Unique style'

 

Bill Werde, Billboard's editorial director, said: "Beyonce is a multi-platinum artist and a multi-talented woman who clearly embodies the qualities of excellence and achievement the award was created to honour.

 

"She has inspired women everywhere with her unique style and business savvy," he added.

 

The star is also being singled out for her charitable work, including helping to deliver meals to food banks in the US during her world tour.

 

She also gave away 2,500 concert tickets to Detroit families affected by the crisis in the US car industry.

 

The singer, who is married to rapper Jay-Z, is to headline the first Formula One gig in Singapore next month.

 

She is also nominated for nine MTV Music Video Awards, which take place on 13 September.

 

Her world tour is scheduled to arrive in the UK in November.

 

 

BBC Entertainment News

Despite being recently quoted saying the band will reunite, the singer has now denied this via Twitter.

 

Michelle Williams has denied Destiny’s Child is to reunite. The singer – who was recently quoted in the News of the World saying: “It definitely will happen. “We're sisters, we love each other and we want to work on the future of Destiny's Child." However, Williams has now released a statement via Twitter that denies the claims and apologises to fans for the misunderstanding. She wrote: "I never said DC is getting back together. Just bcuz I said we love each other and are sisters... they took that quote and ran with it! Sorry. (sic)" The band broke up in 2005 so the members – Michelle, Beyoncé Knowles and Kelly Rowland – could each pursue solo careers.
