I dunno why I haven’t asked my folks yet if they were crying. Everyone was crying! It was so cute when I called my mom on Tuesday and she picked up the phone and said “YES WE CAN!” I am lovin’ this. Barack Obama’s transformative win has ignited a movement. This is much bigger than we can imagine.
Diddy cried.
“I was straight up crying. I was with my kids. It was a beautiful thing. I just thank God my prayers were answered.”
Meanwhile, Cedric the Entertainer says his son Croix, 8, was full of questions: “‘What does the president do and what does it mean? And how old is Barack’s little daughter?’” I was like, ‘That’s what I’m talking about,’” the comedian joked. “‘Make that move!’”
And Beyonce got the hell outta Japan so she could be in the U. S. of A when this all went down.
“I said, ‘What am I doing? I’m completely making a bad decision. I have to go home, I’m gonna kill myself if I’m not home in America,’” she told the AP. “I knew I needed to be here.”
Knowles watched the election results at home with friends and family – while wearing a blue suit and tie with matching red, white and blue stilettos.
“I’ve never been so patriotic! I fell asleep crying and smiling at the same time … I woke up with mascara running and a smile on my face!”
Should Obama require her services, the singer is game: “Whatever they want – if they need me to volunteer, they need me to sing, I’m there and I’m ready.”
But what is most important, Knowles said, is that the newly elected president has provided inspriration for African Americans.
“My nephew, who is 4, when we say, ‘You can do whatever, you can be whatever,’ it’s not cliche,” she explained.

Beyonce and her sistah Solange Knowles were in Tokyo to premiere their Samantha Thavasa handbag and their new singles.
Beyonce’s hair is like a less dramatic Amy Wino beehive. Perfect for storing crack. And if that’s not your thing, it’s good for stashing a condom and snacks, if you’re like me and sometimes forget to bring them with you… And I think it’s time for Solange to start going by her first name only. It’s unique enough, unless she goes by Solange Knowles so that people will know who her sister is? Hmmmm. I’m thinking it may be the latter, somthing Papa Knowles suggested. But I think going by just Solange would be more fitting and more original.
I guess there isn’t single ladies in this video, instead there’s ladies and a man!
The chocolate chick in the “Single Ladies” video is a dude and is one of the choreographers, Jaquel Knight, in drag.
O.M.G.!!!!! Did any of you guess there’s a man up in this trio? I think this is the fiercest thing Sasha Fierce has ever done. Can you imagine how excited Jaquel must have been? Beyonce allowing the person responsible for her moves to have a role on screen, while hoping his cock is tucked in tightly, is very commendable. He’s pretty too.
While blogger after blogger has been slamming Beyonce over the past few days for having a “stupid” stage name and “multiple personality disorder” because she goes by the name “Sasha” when performing, I refused to join the bandwagon.
Time and time again Beyonce has said she’s shy. She should be allowed to do whatever it takes in order for her to gain the confidence she needs to give such amazing performances. I found the bashing senseless and illogical. That’s until I came across an advertisement with a plain background saying “Who is Sasha Fierce” sashafierce.com (the homepage of the website is posted above). Then I was suddenly disgusted by the misuse of her remedy for shyness now turned into a brief spanning marketing campaign.
Bitch, there is no Sasha Fucking Fierce! Diva. Relax.
Here’s the Beyonce quote bloggers were going wild over this week:
“I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am. Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I’m working and when I’m on the stage.”
Beyonce’s Who is Sasha Fierce website is surprising because her secret character is supposed to be private. It won’t be long before people start addressing her as “Sasha Fierce” and shit and “Sasha” will become more of a joke than a practiced disassociation method that works, me thinks.
Solange Knowles lashed out on air at the reporter who she thought questioned her about Jay-Z, claiming she doesn’t talk about Beyonce or Jay. Funny thing is, she’s been riding Beyonce’s coattails, appearing in L’Oreal commercials alongside her sis and doing all she can to be semi-relevant in an industry that rather watch her wipe Beyonce’s nose and hold her umbrella.
Solange will be going on tour with her superstar sistah. Hmmm, anyone know what her sister’s name is? Shhhhh….. we’re not supposed to say “Beyonce” when mentioning Solange.
Expect seats to only be filled after Solange’s set finishes. She may even get boo’d too! Good luck with that, Solange.
EVEN WORSE, Solange won’t even hit the same stages Beyonce will! B, that’s cold.
Beyoncé will embark on a 110-date world tour that will begin in April 2009. Discussions are under way for Solange to join her big sis’ on tour. After seeing the elder Knowles rock arenas, fans would be able to go to a more intimate location and watch Solange perform at an official “after-party.” Specific details have yet to be announced.
Beyoncé is scheduled to release her third album I Am… on November 18th, while Solange’s sophomore release SoL-AngeL and The Hadley St. Dreams is available now.
