"I tell you what, though, Beyonce was robbed of the 'Dreamgirls' Oscar. She did a great job. Mind you, that won't be her last opportunity. She'll have plenty of Oscars in the future."
-- Kelly Rowland on Destiny's Child frontwoman Beyonce Knowles not being nominated for an Academy Award. ('Teen Hollywood')

I really think that sometimes Kelly sweats Beyounce. Kelly really need to worry about her own career and stop taking up for Beyounce so much. Beyounce is a grown woman who can fight her own battles.

That's a loyal friend considering how blacks always think that black girls who are dark all walk around hating on lighter skin girls-but that isnt always the case but black people need to stop hating a girl cuz they light and have some white fans or are more famous due to having talent and a good personality

Maybe part of Kellys contract with Mr. Knowles is that she has to say something positive about Queen Beyonce in EVERY interview she does.

The main character was Effie not beyonce's character. People stop playing Jennifer against Beyonce and vice versa...both are very talented one is a super star and the other is a up and coming star and I believe that jennifer hudson did a excellent job. The movie was great! Kelly is the one who can't sing all that well...oops did I really type that??? too late..peace people.

To each his/her own but Kelly Rowland is just average when it comes to singing..She's lucky to be brought up with Beyonce and her family in my opinion. To have the oppurtunity of a life time to sing next to a girl who can "Sang" I would be kissing a little A$$ my self...

FRANKLY SPEAKING, I AM SICK OF B. SHE IS EVERYWHERE. SHE IS GOOD AT SINGING, BUT THE SISTER CAN'T ACT. SHE NEEDS TO GO ON VACATION AND LET OTHER TALENTED PEOPLE GAIN SOME FAME. GOD HASN'T SHE MADE ENOUGHT MONEY. KELLY NEEDS TO FOCUS ON HER CAREER AND STOP THINKING THAT THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND B.

Statements like this make me happy that Destiny's Child broke up. Their strong female empowerment message was growning old, and this expresses the danger of prejudice in ways most can't see. Kelly is biased toward the work offered by B. It's like anything she does is golden. Wrong answer. Kelly has the right to support her friends, but she only gets one vote. Celebrity is a megaphone for any issue, but it doesn't make the person using it think. Kelly was also recently wrong on HIV status. It must be "None of our Business." If you sleep with someone, then you need to know. Don't sleep with the people you do business with because "That's Porn!" Should I call this rant, "No Oscar or No Oscar Meyer Weiner."

HONESTLY....There is nothing wrong with SUPPORTING each other and being happy for the accomplishments of ANY Black male/ female. It bothers me that Kelly only believes that Beyonce should have recieved the OSCAR because of their friendship and Beyonce's status .I mean Jennifer should have been the American Idol, but it came back to her 7 fold. And she played the hell out of Effie .. I mean many other actresses could have played Deena..And props to the other girls in the movie

I Love kelly oh so much.. I think she and 6eyonce kind of sound the same. Kelly is a great singer. I also feel that Jennifer Hudson did an outstanding job in that movie. She deserved that oscar. the third girl in dreamgirls was great as well. What about her? Give props were due people. All of those woman are fabulous.Everyone talk how there tired of seeing 6eyonce but they 6e quicc to picc up a magazine with her in.. you can't never get tired. theres enough room in the industry for everyone to eat. Good luck kelly, ms Rowland if your nasty. ;)

Although the character that Beyonce portrayed in "DreamGirls" was a serious more mature role when compared to her previous roles, Beyonce did okay as Deena, I truly think she got the role based off of her looks. She was gipped out of her award for "Listen" because the song is awesome but she didn't the other awards because she wasn't all that groundbreaking, she did good on the music side and the performance side in the musical numbers because duh she's a musical artist but hey JHud owned that movie. Kelly of course is going to back up her "cousin" in all and B and Michelle are going to do the same for her because they are like family. Hope Kelly comes back and up this year.
