Census: Minorities Now Surpass Whites In US Births

With the promotion of her re-packaged 'B-Day' opus underway, Beyonce Knowles continues to go where no one else does.
On April 2, the booytlicious diva will do the unprecedented: appear and perform on two live morning television shows back to back. The multiple Grammy Award winning 'Dreamgirls' star will grace NBC's 'Today Show' and CBS's 'The Early Show,' confirmed her publicist Yvette Noel-Schure.
Meanwhile, Beyonce's superstar duet with Shakira 'Beautiful Liar,' has set the all-time record for biggest jump in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 bulleting upwards an unprecedented 91 slots (#94 to #3) in a single week.
The instantaneous hit -- which has also been recorded in Spanish and Spanglish versions -- is the first track 'B'DAY Deluxe Edition,' an expanded two-CD edition of the pop icon's best-selling Grammy-winning solo album, which will released April 3.

I for one love that Flaws and all cut so I may just have to copy the repackaged one. I think she made BDay so quicikly, she now has an opportunity to do it the way she wants. She is not the first to re-release, or re-mix or self-promote. I am a singer and a singer knows another singer. The girl has skills and I applaud her efforts. Go Bey do ya thang! Be the empowered boss God meant for you to be...

Beyonce is a person with a lot of drive She doesn't sit still and do nothing. It's great to have that quality because people should always be goal oriented no matter how much you have. I'm not surprised that she did both of these shows the same day she probably would've done another if it was close enough.
I'm going to get her new album that's in spanish and with the bonus songs, because i love her music and i always wish that she has a couple of more songs on the CD anyway.
And i don't see why people are acting like she's doing something so crazy by re-packing the album she's not the only artist to have done it.
Stop hating on her and support the fact that we have a main stream African American woman out there doing her thing.

You can't be famous for the rest of your life. I'm sure she doesn't want to end up like one of those disco divas that pop up out of the wood-works every 10 or so years and have to sing the one song that they were famous for. She's just making the most out of her situation. And taking advantage of it while she has it
Who could blame her?

I giver her all the credit in the world! She is a huge talent and a beautiful young lady. At first it was my daughter and neices that LOVED HER EVERY MOVE. I took them to a live performance and was FLOORED!!!!!! I then became a fan. It was fabulous. She sang LIVE and danced her as* off. I judged this talented sista on others who new nothing about this artist! I made a huge mistake in juging her with iut seeing the product first! Her CD's represent her age very 20 ish and exploring love. It's hip/hop beats and sultry slow cuts work.....I am sure after making all the millions that are sure to come off of her world tour, she will chill, and create a more mature sound. She will be older. Is it her fault that the internet cannot go 1 day without commenting on her career, or is it her fault that other R&B singers are not out there making the cd's that folks want to purchase. Don't hate her cause her marketing game cannot be fuc*ed with! make your paper babygirl...You cannot please everyone. I will always support a true talented performer. B'day, B'day the re-release, b'day country western featuring bing crosby and the jackson 5, b'day gospel featuring td jakes and ice cube on drums..what ever the case make that paper cause after 30...the fans don't use it any more! We all see how the black community will turn on folks.....Thumbs up to you Ms. Beyonce!

Kay Love: Again an uninformed hater. I will answer all your comments...
If you are tired of her, simply don't buy the cd don't watch the videos and don't get on this blog....Simple!
Her hair is a weave or wig like EVERY OTHER ARTIST/entertainer BLACK and WHITE...yes they add hair too......agin dont watch her....
She will definitely be around for many years to come, she has already been in the game for 10 years plus and you point is what? you act like she just came out...She is much tooo far in the game for that beginner comment. Again don't watch.
A re-release for her fans since the other sold 5 million worldwide, is not out of desparation but very smart on her behalf, she has a huge spanish following and did songs for them as well. Name another artist on bee's music genre' and age that made noise this year or last year for that matter....i am waiting....i didn't think so.
Also the videos were smart. Folks like you do not vote her videos on the count downs and her fans love to see them so she did a video for 10 of her favorites on the cd......That is genius..and guess what? She made it and it was bought! Oh, and if you purchased the dreamgirls cd....that was her daddy's coin....it is on his lable! So at the end of the day wheather you like her or not your reasons are HIGHSCHOOL jealous and catty. Black women like you exist on my job and I grew up with many.....Love yourself, and it will be easy to accept others for who they are. That young lady has done nothing but make music.....If you hate, again dson't listen!
