Well can't say we blame her. She's been looking fabulous lately...
Beyonce Transforms Into Etta James On Set Of New Movie ‘Cadillac Records’
Beyonce is on the set of her new film, Cadillac Records, about the life of soulful jazz singer Etta James. I love Etta James and I’m excited about this film. Beyonce has some big shoes to fill and I hope she has the acting skills to pull this off. Etta James has a lot of spunk and spirit. Here’s what Mrs. Etta James had to say about Beyonce starring in the film:
“It’s a privilege and an honor to have somebody like that girl. I don’t think she looks like me, but that’s all right. They can fix that up.”
“I have my own way of putting those songs over, and I was just wondering if Beyoncé could, and my son said, ‘They’re thinking about how she looks, but mama, she can really sing!’”
“I wasn’t as bourgie as she is, she’s bourgeois. She knows how to be a lady, she’s like a model. I wasn’t like that… I smoked in the bathroom in school, I was kinda arrogant, so those are some of the things I would want to tell her.”

Distant Star EXPLODES!
The explosion of a star halfway across the universe was so huge it set a record for the most distant object that could be seen on Earth by the naked eye.
The aging star, in a previously unknown galaxy, exploded in a gamma ray burst 7.5 billion light-years away, its light finally reaching Earth early Wednesday.
The gamma rays were detected by NASA's Swift satellite at 2:12 a.m. "We'd never seen one before so bright and at such a distance," NASA's Neil Gehrels said.
NASA has no reports that any sky-watchers spotted the burst, which lasted less than an hour.
Telescopic measurements show that the burst - which occurred when the universe was about half its current age - was bright enough to be seen without a telescope.
The starburst would have appeared as bright as some of the stars in the handle of the Little Dipper constellation, said Pennsylvania State University astronomer David Burrows.
How it looked wasn't remarkable, but the distance traveled was. The 7.5 billion light years away far eclipses the previous naked-eye record of 2.5 million light years. One light year is 5.9 trillion miles.
"This is roughly halfway to the edge of the universe," Burrows said.
Before it exploded, the star was about 40 times bigger than the sun.
The explosion vaporized any planet nearby, said Gehrels, chief of NASA's astroparticles physics lab at Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.

Diddy In Hiding After Threats From LA Gang Members???
LipServiceRadio.com has learned that since the Los Angeles Times' recent article suggesting that Diddy was involved in Tupac's shooting, the hip hop mogul has been in fear for his life.
A person close to Diddy explained, "His security team doesn't feel that it's wise for him to make too many public appearances until this all blows over."
And it couldn't happen at a worse time for Diddy. The insider tells LipServiceRadio.com, "He should be out promoting Danity Kane's new release, but instead he has to be worried about all this." The insider continued, "This is costing him money ... He's [likely] going to have to take the L.A. Times to court over this."
Jordin Sparks New Boy Friend????
LipServiceRadio.com has learned that American Idolstar Jordin Sparks is dating R&B singer, and Ludacris Protégé, Steph Jones. Steph is best known for singing on the Ludacris hit song Celebrity Chicks.
Here's what In Touch Magazine is reporting:
The American Idol winner was recently spotted having dinner with rising R&B star Steph Jones, 24, after his performance at NYC's Spotlight Live. But, "they've been tight for a while," an insider tells In Touch. "They hung out after she sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, and throughout Grammy week. They do the red carpet separately at events and then meet up together inside."
Make-Up Democratic Primary Unlikely in Michigan
Considering that i'm from Michigam, and this is my first year eligible to vote... I am not happy to say a make-up Democratic Party presidential primary is now less likely to happen in Michigan, after state legislatures adjourned Thursday's session without taking up the issue.
The legislature is not due to meet again for another two weeks, greatly reducing the chances that the state could organize a primary election by a June 3 deadline.
The National Democratic Party stripped Michigan of its right to send delegates to the party's nominating convention after the state violated party rules by holding its primary elections early.
Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has been calling for a re-vote in the state. She currently trails her rival, Senator Barack Obama, by about 150 delegates needed to win the nomination.
Clinton says it would be unfair if Obama won the nomination without counting the votes in Michigan and Florida, another state that was stripped of its delegates for violating party rules.
The next major Democratic primary is in Pennsylvania April 22, with 158 delegates at stake.
It is unlikely that either candidate will receive enough total delegates to clinch the nomination as John McCain did for the Republican Party. That means the decision could come down to the party's nominating convention, when party officials, known as "super-delegates," are free to vote as they choose.
Analysts say it is likely super-delegates will consider which candidate has more pledged delegates and a higher percentage of the popular vote when making their decision.

Hot GHETTO Mes!!!- Detroit Mayor Drops N Bomb at State of The Union
Ok so yall know The KING is from the metro Detroit area (Ann Arbor to be exact) so yall know I had to blog about this HOT GHETTO MESS!!... So are good ole' Mayor Kwame Droped th N word 7 times at the state of the union, why is this such a big deal you ask??? well Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick stood before hundreds of people last summer and triumphantly proclaimed: "Die N-word, and we don't want to see you 'round here no more."
But the epithet that he and other black leaders symbolically buried in downtown Detroit during a national NAACP convention was resurrected by the embattled mayor Tuesday night during his annual State of the City address, carried live on local television and radio stations.
Facing possible perjury charges from testimony during a whistle-blowers' trial and criticism over sexually explicit text messages he sent to his former top aide, a defiant Kilpatrick lashed out at the media and opponents. The black mayor says he and his family have been subjected to racial slurs, as well as threats over the past month.
"In the past three days, I've received more death threats than I have in my entire administration," Kilpatrick said near the end of his 65-minute address. "I've heard these words before, but I've never heard them said about my wife and children."
Some local civil rights leaders criticized Kilpatrick and say he chose the wrong forum and wrong language for his outburst.
"It most especially was not a place to use the same word that, supposedly, we buried last summer," said the Rev. Edgar Vann, pastor of Second Ebenezer Baptist Church in Detroit. "You can make references to it without using it."
The N-word has been used as a slur against blacks for more than a century. It remains a symbol of racism, but also is used by blacks when referring to other blacks, especially in comedy routines and rap and hip-hop music.
Public discussion on the word and other racially insensitive remarks intensified after last year's remarks by white talk show host Don Imus, who described black members of the Rutgers University women's basketball team as "nappy-headed hos."
The Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and other national black leaders all have called for the use of the word to end. The Baltimore-based National Association for the Advancement of Colored People held the public burial last July during the civil rights organization's annual convention in Detroit.
The ceremony included a slow processional with a pine box through downtown Detroit. The casket was buried at a local cemetery.
"Today we're not just burying the N-word, we're taking it out of our spirit," Kilpatrick said at the time.
National and local NAACP leaders did not condone Kilpatrick's use of the word Tuesday, but added that the context in which it was used should be considered.
"He was trying to make a point. He wasn't using it in the typical vernacular," national NAACP spokesman Richard J. McIntire said.
However, "it was never a word to be used for anything positive," he said.
The Rev. Wendell Anthony, Detroit NAACP president, attended the address and warned that Kilpatrick's message for the city's future should not be lost because of one word.
"It was a very good speech," Anthony said. "The final minutes obviously went toward his personal situation and it dealt with an area of his life that has come under a lot of pressure.
"In fairness to what was stated, we would have been more upset if he called someone that word. He describes a situation in which he was called the word. We don't condone the use and there should be no ambiguity around that."
But Kilpatrick's remarks only add to the racial polarization that has divided a mostly black Detroit and its primarily white suburbs over the past 40 years.
"I think people are tired of race being used as a tactic, especially when it becomes public like this," Vann said.
Eleanor Josaitis, co-founder of Focus:HOPE, worries Kilpatrick's use of the word will hurt race relations _ something her nonprofit organization has been working to improve since the 1967 Detroit riot.
"We've all worked very hard to bury the N-word," she said. "People are disappointed _ just disappointed in everything right now. Everybody is just praying we bring it to an end."
On Wednesday, Kilpatrick spokesman James Canning explained that the mayor used the N-word in his speech as an example of how hurtful the epithet can be for any community.
"He was explaining to the citizens of Detroit the situation he and his family have been put in by some very vile individuals who have decided they will thrust upon he and his family some very threatening forms of communications," Canning said.
Kilpatrick has been under fire since excerpts of the sexually explicit text messages from 2002 and 2003 were reported in January by the Detroit Free Press.
The Detroit City Council will consider a resolution next week that calls for the mayor to resign. Recently released documents show there was a confidential agreement linking the text messages to the $8.4 million settlement of the whistle-blowers' lawsuit brought by two former police officers. The council approved the payout, but did not know about the secret deal.
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said Wednesday she expects to make a decision the week of March 24 on whether she will charge Kilpatrick and former Chief of Staff Christine Beatty with perjury after the two testified during that trial that they didn't have a romantic relationship. Excerpts of the text messages released by the Free Press contradict their testimony.

Obama Wins Wyoming!
Obama led rival Sen. Hillary Clinton at 59 percent to 40 percent, with 96 percent of precincts reporting.
The caucus thrust the state, which has only 12 delegates, into the spotlight because the close race between Obama and Clinton means that every delegate counts.
Although Wyoming typically is not a stop for Democrats looking for delegates to clinch the party's presidential nomination, its numbers could make a difference this year because of the delegate deadlock.
With slightly more than 600 delegates left at stake, every remaining contest is crucial to both candidates. The two are separated by fewer than 100 delegates, with Obama leading Clinton 1,527 to 1,428.
"We are thrilled with this near split in delegates and are grateful to the people of Wyoming for their support," Clinton's campaign manager, Maggie Williams, said in a statement.
"Although the Obama campaign predicted victory in Wyoming weeks ago, we worked hard to present Sen. Clinton's vision to the caucus-goers, and we thank them for turning out today."
On Friday, both senators were in Wyoming to lure last-minute votes. Clinton held town hall meetings in Cheyenne and Casper, and also dispatched former President Clinton to help drum up support.
Obama spoke at a town hall meeting in Casper, using the opportunity to criticize Clinton's 2002 vote on the war in Iraq.
"I will bring this war to an end in 2009, so don't be confused ... when Senator Clinton is not willing to acknowledge that she voted for war," he said. "I don't want to play politics on this issue, because she doesn't have standing to question my position on this issue."
The state's Democratic governor, Dave Freudenthal, said he has endorsed neither candidate because, in his view, they have mostly neglected "Western issues" like the environment, water and energy. However, he said he was lobbied hard by both campaigns in the weeks leading up to the caucus.
Former Gov. Mike Sullivan backed Clinton some time ago. State Democratic Party chief John Millin has endorsed Obama.
"Seriously, I never imagined when I took this job that we would see the day when the two front-runners for the Democratic presidential nomination would hold events in Wyoming on the eve of our county caucuses," state Democratic Party spokesman Bill Luckett wrote on the state party's Web site this week.
"I think there's a reasonable chance we'll get our 15 minutes in the national spotlight when the deal goes down on Saturday."
Obama's Grandma Rips Campaign Tactics
Barack Obama's Kenyan grandmother is upset by what she sees as dirty campaign tricks, including the distribution of a photo showing her grandson in a turban and robe. "Bringing such pictures that are trying to imply that not only is he a foreigner, he is a Muslim, is wrong, because that is not what he is," Sarah Hussein Obama, 86, said Wednesday.
A frown replaces the dimpled beam of Sarah Hussein Obama, grandmother of Barack Obama, when asked on Wednesday about recent attacks on her grandson that include the spreading of rumors that he is secretly a Muslim and the repeated use of his middle name -- Hussein -- by a radio host at a rally for presumptive Republican nominee John McCain."Untruths are told that don't have anything to do with what Barack is about," she said in the local Luo language, her gray hair smoothed neatly under a headwrap. "I am very against it."Hillary Rodham Clinton won primaries Tuesday in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island, halting Obama's winning streak. Obama won in Vermont.Each twist and turn of the race is closely scrutinized, said Barack Obama's half-sister, Auma Obama. The family gathered in his grandmother's house on Tuesday night to watch the results come in on a television donated by a family friend, she said - the grandmother's own simple house does not have one of its own."Barack's done extremely well and we're very proud of him," Auma Obama said when asked for a reaction to the losses on Tuesday. "This is like a football match. The game continues."In recent weeks, two Clinton volunteers in Iowa resigned after forwarding false e-mails falsely saying he was a Muslim and a threat to national security. Matt Drudge, said his Web site, The Drudge Report, that he was e-mailed a picture of Obama in a turban and robe by the Clinton campaign.
