Beyoncé's Hair-Raising Jet Ski Ride
Originally posted 04/11/2012 10:35AM
Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z may have brought baby Blue Ivy with them on their Caribbean vacation, but that doesn't mean the new mom can't let her hair down – or up, as the case may be.
The singer seemed delighted during a solo jet ski outing earlier this week, and struck a pose for Jay-Z, who was snapping pictures on the beach, by holding her ponytailed hair high above her head.
After giving birth to Blue Ivy in January, Beyoncé has been enjoying some well-deserved family vacation time before getting back to work with concerts scheduled for Memorial Day weekend in Atlantic City.

Blue Ivy Carter Goes Sailing in the Caribbean
Originally posted 04/09/2012 02:05PM
Blue Ivy Carter enjoyed the feel of the ocean breeze – well, her feet did, anyway – as mom Beyoncé and dad Jay-Z relaxed aboard a yacht in the Caribbean this weekend.
The 3-month-old was mostly covered up in Beyoncé's baby carrier, but her little feet dangled out the bottom – unlike on other outings in New York City back in February, when she was completely bundled.
It's back to work soon for Beyoncé, though. The pop star is scheduled to perform three concerts over Memorial Day weekend at Atlantic City's new $2.4 billion Revel Resorts.

Beyoncé Shares Personal Photos on New Tumblr
Originally posted 04/05/2012 11:00AM
Beyoncé, who just celebrated her fourth wedding anniversary (on 4/4 no less!) with Jay-Z, is letting fans have a "view into her world."
The ultra-private music mogul launched a special Tumblr page Thursday featuring personal photos. (Beyoncé's big launch is Beyonce.com, and the Tumblr is part of the site.) In a message to fans, she writes, "it's been a long time coming – but I finally have my own place on the web."
Besides an artful gallery of stylish photos, the multi-media site includes sections on "The Latest" (with a pre-sale announcement for Revel), "Music," "Vault" (which she calls "the heart of my site"), "Beyhive" (for the official fan collective), "Performance" (listing her Atlantic City concerts on May 25-27) and "I Am" (offering a private message that clicks onto more photos).

Ashton Kutcher Bound for Outer Space

Here's one way of getting away from it all: sub-orbit the solar system. And Ashton Kutcher is all ready to don his astronaut suit.
"Great news today from our Astronaut Relations team at Virgin Galactic: our 500th future astronaut customer has just signed up! Even better news is that number 500 is Ashton Kutcher," Virgin Galactic's founder, Richard Branson, trumpeted on his blog Monday.
Added the entrepreneur, "I gave Ashton a quick call to congratulate and welcome him. He is as thrilled as we are at the prospect of being among the first to cross the final frontier (and back!) with us and to experience the magic of space for himself."

Beyoncé Shows Off Baby Pictures at Robin Thicke's B-Day
Originally posted 03/13/2012 06:00AM
Robin Thicke had some famous friends by his side as he celebrated his 35th birthday party at Catch in New York City. The R&B star and wife Paula Patton were joined by Beyoncé and Jay-Z at the soiree.
It was a super-private bash, with only about 20 guests attending. Thicke and his friends were blocked off by security guards, as he didn't rent out the whole venue, and they all enjoyed Armand de Brignac. He did, however, treat fellow diners at the hip restaurant to some tunes, playing deejay for the whole dining room from his iPod.
One VIP-only experience, courtesy new mom Beyoncé? The singer showed off pictures of daughter Blue Ivy during the three-hour dinner party.

Blue Ivy Carter is already getting a feel for designer duds.
Beyoncé carried her infant daughter in a leopard-print wrap for their latest stroll in New York City on Sunday. The new mom, 30, was beaming as she enjoyed her second outing in as many days with her 7-week-old baby girl. On Saturday, they were spotted out to lunch together in the West Village.
"We welcome you to share in our joy," the singer and husband Jay-Z said recently, sharing the first photos of Blue Ivy since her birth on Jan. 7. "We are thankful to everyone for all your prayers, well wishes, love and support."

Beyoncé and Blue Ivy are ladies who lunch!
The singer took her daughter, born Jan. 7, out to eat in New York City's West Village on Saturday.
Dressed down in an over-sized navy jacket, black hat and shades, the singer, 30, kept her newborn bundled up and out of view of photographers.
The casual attire is a change for the new mom, whose first appearances since giving birth were remarkably chic.
Grammy Awards Pay Tribute to Whitney Houston, Etta James

On a night intended to pay homage to the biggest names in music today, two of the Grammy
Awards's biggest honorees were the megastars no longer in the room: Etta James and Whitney Houston.
After host LL Cool J opened Sunday's ceremony with a prayer for Houston, announcing "a death in our family," the audience rose in a standing ovation.
"When a truly great artist leaves us, their legacy lives on," Alicia Keys later told the stars gathered at Los Angeles's Staples Center, before joining Bonnie Raitt in a graceful cover of James's "A Sunday Kind of Love."
But the most moving tribute came from Jennifer Hudson, whose elegant but understated rendition of Houston's "I Will Always Love You" brought audience members to their feet once again.
