Beyonce is not only dominating this year with the introduction of her alter-ego Sasha but she will also be covering the January 2009 issue of Elle Magazine. In this issue Beyonce compares her attitude and mood swing to her character Etta James in her new starring film Cadillac Records.
“I feel like you get more bees with honey. But that doesn’t mean I don’t get frustrated in my life,” Beyonce continued, “My way of dealing with frustration is to shut down and to think and speak logically. But playing Etta was a time when I didn’t have to do that. I could be loud and let it rip.”

Not only is rapper Kanye West telling folks to “Eat sh*t and die,” but he’s apparently cursing out musicians and, of course, the media. All on stage. In front of people. Here’s what someone sent to our boy illseed over at All Hip Hop.
But of course, Kanye caused controversy. His show was AMAZING, but what would a Kanye show be without those diva moments? Firstly, while performing ‘Put On’, he went into some kind of auto-tune-freestyle. Basically what he was saying was that people don’t want him to change, people don’t want him to grow, they’d rather see him do exactly the same thing over and over again. Then, he went into a rant; saying that the media had stripped him of real life and explaining his daily pressures of being a celebrity. Then, he randomly started talking about Britney Spears, claiming that she spazzed out because K-Fed took advantage of her to better himself.
But, the best was yet to come. Kanye decided to close with Love Lockdown. He restarted the song three or four times (i lost count). The first time, I don’t think he was in-sync with his musicians…so 30 seconds in he told them to stop and start again. The second time, Kanye said ‘Nah you guys f#$ked it, start again’ and stormed off the stage, the musicians kept playing through the chorus and only stopped afterwards…which was awkward as Kanye wasnt even singing.
The third time, Kanye got about half-way through the song and stopped it once more. Kanye then came out and said “I’m supposed to have another f*cking outfit for this song, but they’ve taken it back to the dressing room. But f*ck it, Let’s just do it”. He was pretty angry lol, but all the fans were laughing haha. He then managed to get through the whole song without stopping..needless to say…i dont wanna hear Love Lockdown again…lol.
Anyway i thought he didnt need a stylist since he shops so much that he can speak Italian…LOL. it was mainly a good show anyway.
Houston Rockets’ guard Tracy McGrady will not be returning to the court until his full recovery of his left knee has healed. After starting the first 15 games after his arthroscopic surgery he had on his knee and returned to the court almost to re-injure his knee. Before McGrady left his was averaging 15 points per game.
“Obviously, I came back a little bit too early, I’m just not ready.” McGrady continued. “Now I’ve got some sort of peace of mind, I don’t have to worry about whether it’s going to take the whole season for me to get healthy and what I’ve got to do for me to get back to 100 percent. I don’t have to have to go under the knife again. I’m relieved.”
Hopefully T-Mac will get back on the court healthy and revved up full throttle.
T.I. says that he wants his friends, family, and business associates to remember him as he they last saw him before entering jail in March 2009. When asked about conjugal visits on the Howard Stern show the rapper said: “I don’t accept visits. I want people to remember as I am. I’ll see you on release day.”
The self-proclaimed “king of the south” also revisited the federal gun possessions that lead to his forthcoming sentence.
“It’s definitely not about looking cool or people seeing you carrying anything around,” he explained. “If you were familiar with my past, you would recognize that there are certain significant dangers that are very real. In 2006 my best friend got killed right in front of me. They made an attempt on my life.”
To let Tip tell it, those days are over. “The thing is right now, I’m the safest I’ve ever been,” he shred. ”I’m federally monitored daily.”
