• Beyoncé and Jay-Z, double-dating with Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin at Madeo Restaurant in Beverly Hills. The couples met for dinner after the BET Awards and were "definitely having a good time and laughing," an onlooker tells us. At one point, the group switched seats so the ladies could sit next to each other in the booth while the guys sat on the outside.

Joe, Janet Jackson Join BET Awards Tribute to Michael
Originally posted 06/28/2009 09:00PM
Sunday's BET Awards at Los Angeles's Shrine Auditorium honored entertainers for their achievements last year and served as a tribute to Michael Jackson – whose father Joe Jackson and sister Janet Jackson were very visible at the event, only three days after the death of their son and brother.
Sporting a black hat, sunglasses and a dark suit, the patriarch of the Jackson family appeared on the red carpet and told CNN about Michael: "I wish the world had recognized him when he was living. Right now, he's bigger than ever. But I wish he was here to see all this, to hear all this."
The memory of Michael dominated the gala. Host Jamie Foxx made his entrance in a red leather "Billie Jean" jacket. "No need to be sad. We want to celebrate this black man," said Foxx. "We gonna go through all of Michael Jackson."

Still reeling two days after Michael Jackson's death, the music industry's biggest names are paying tribute to the King of Pop.
"The reason I am here is due to Michael Jackson," Beyoncé told the Friday night crowd at Philadelphia's Wachovia Center before her concert, where she sang Jackson's "I Can't Help It".
In Beverly Hills, the 22nd Annual ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards – honoring songwriting achievements in the R&B, soul, rap, hip-hop and gospel genres – became a total memorial to Jackson, as the audience observed a moment of silence and presenters and award-winners alike extolled Jackson's unparalleled influence on the industry.

POLL: Which Celeb 'Cop' Would You Like to Be Stopped By?
Originally posted 05/09/2009 11:30AM
Ever have fantasies about being pulled over by a sexy police officer? Well, some famous pop stars seem to be channeling their inner patrolwoman by rocking the cop hat.
Beyoncé was the first to bring the uniform back in her "If I Were a Boy" video in 2008 in which she slams an offender on her patrol car as her crush ogles her fierce ways. Britney Spears donned a sexy cop getup during her "Circus" tour, reprimanding her cheating boytoy to her hit "Womanizer." Most recently, Victoria Beckham took the trend off the stage and onto the streets en route from a flight from L.A. this week.
Tell us: Who would you rather get a citation from?

Beyoncé: The Obamas Made Me Cry
Originally posted 05/06/2009 05:35PM
Even Sasha Fierce, it seems, has moments of weakness.
Before Beyoncé Knowles performed "At Last" for Barack and Michelle Obama's first dance as President and First Lady in January, the singer – who has said her onstage alter ego is the aggressive Fierce – was overcome by emotion.
"I had to tell myself, 'They asked you to do this. You have to do a great job. This is their history. Calm down. Calm down,'" she admits in the June issue of Marie Claire. "I barely made it. Literally seconds before the song started, I was crying like a 5-year-old."

Beyoncé Imposter Tricks Vienna Museum
Originally posted 04/30/2009 11:00AM
The Albertina Museum in Austria got an exciting call on Tuesday: A manager for Beyoncé Knowles said that the star was on her way over.
"We have had Brad Pitt and Nicolas Cage visit here," says museum press officer Verena Dahlitz. "So this was not big news for us – to have celebrities visit."
Thirty minutes later, a stretch limo arrived and a sunglass-wearing woman stepped out surrounded by five burly bodyguards. Museum officials were immediately skeptical. "She was too thin for Beyoncé," says Dahlitz. "I thought she had probably lost weight."

Beyoncé Hits Box-Office High Note
Originally posted 04/27/2009 05:00AM
Beyoncé Knowles has something to sing about: Her movie, the thriller Obsessed, topped the weekend box-office chart – far outpacing last weekend's No. 1 movie, 17 Again starring Zac Efron.
This weekend, the romantic comedy starring the High School Musical heartthrob went head-to-head with Fighting, which stars a very hot Channing Tatum as an underground bare-knuckle pugilist.
With both movies making about $11.5 million each, they tied for the No. 2 spot, the Associated Press reports. Over 10 days, 17 Again has raked in a highly respectable $40 million.

Beyoncé Dances to Stay Fit

Beyoncé Knowles's curves are in all the right places – thanks to hours of dancing and online shopping!
"I saw this dress online. I'm always on Style.com," she said of her sparkling Balmain dress with an endless black train on the red carpet at the Cinema Society and MCM-sponsored New York premiere of her film Obsessed. When her stylist friend found it for her, "he was so excited, he said, 'Please fit, please fit.' "
And fit it did, but not without a lot of work on the part of Knowles. "I lost a lot of weight naturally, just from 12-hour rehearsals," she explained, attributing her recent weight loss to preparing to tour. "That's a lot of dancing. I would never work out for 12 hours, but I'm able to move around and not think about it. It's part of my job."
