Beyonce Tells How She Stays in Shape

Diana Ross Dims Beyonce's Spotlight

I don't know how true this story is, but this is the info that I got from U.K. Yahoo News:

Los Angeles Times' Hollywood insider Tom O'Neil claims "the original Dreamgirl" could create the kind of negative publicity that turns Oscar voters off if she "publicly disapproves" of the film, in which Knowles plays her.

He says, "A longtime friend and colleague (of Ross) tells me that Miss Ross hates Dreamgirls because she feels like she's been ripped off, like its creators changed just enough key elements of her story so they didn't have to pay her royalties and then refused to give her any input on how her story would be told."

The singer's biographer J Randy Taraborrelli is, however, convinced Ross will not blast the film.

He says, "I think that Diana has decided that there's not much she can do about this and she wisely knows that there wasn't much (R+B legend) Billie Holliday's estate could do about her when she did (1972 biopic) Lady Sings The Blues."

Is Beyonce Crossing over to Spanish?

I ran across the Spanish version of Beyonce's "Deja Vu" and "Ring the Alarm" at the the website below. It sounds like Beyonce is trying to widen her fan base by reaching those who speak Spanish. Good move Beyonce! Listen to the spanish versions and comment what you think.

Sorry, no update yet

I know that 8/21 was to be the day that I posted an updated picture of myself on this blog. I haven't had a chance to take my picture yet. Even so, I don't think I am ready to post a pic just yet. My goal is 140 and I am at 151 at this point. Looks like I have hit a plateau, so I guess that means exercise wise, I need to kick it up a notch. Dieting can only get you so far it seems. I'll give myself another month or so to get down to 140, so I am going to update my "After" photo on 9/25/06. Wish me luck :-)
