I hope you know that 95% of Oscar winners are newcomers who have nevr acted in a film before or has had only very limited amount of work…

#147 halcyonc asked: “MEATLOAF…Did you ever watch Jennifer on AI.”
===============================================

Yes! I watched and I listened! Her voice is not quite there for me! Problem is…you can either sing, “I am tell you” better than Ms. Holiday or you make it your own! I think Hudson tried to sing it better and she missed in lots of places on the trailer!

But, on your discussion, I will try an reserve my opinion until after Christmas!

Beyonce is still my front runner!

MEATLOAF…Fair enoug. Only time will tell. I wish the entire cast all the best.

Am I the only one on here that sees the irony of this topic? Why do these two women have any issue with each other at all? Isn’t this the best example ever of life imitating art for these two? (And, no, I don’t mean art imitate life).

First, if Bey wins an Oscar, it will most likely be for the music in Dreamgirls, not necessarily for her performance. I’m not saying she can’t act, but she still has a way to go. To me at least. Then again, she has been bitchin since early this year that she wants to win an Oscar so bad, so who knows. We’ll just have to see.

Second, this rumor came from the UK. Heellllooo??? Yall know these British “journalists” like to create chaos and make up stuff. I don’t believe this is all true. But then again, Diana has never liked Dreamgirls, so I don’t know why a movie would suddenly change Diana’s mind. Anyways, like I said, I think this is mostly a rumor, considering Britain’s reporting track record.

I agree with much of what’s said here. Beyonce is IN NO WAY an Oscar winning actress, and I’ve heard no one mention giving her one! You can’t have lame movie performances like in Pink Panther and Fighting Temptations and expect to do one good movie and win an Oscar! Besides, “acting” like a girl-group member who neglects her bandmates in search of solo superstardom, isn’t exactly “acting” for Beyonce..more like reality! And if it were the case that Ms. Ross was being cheated, she has every right to have a problem with that! I don’t care what any of you say, if someone took credit and were compensated for something you did, you better believe you would bitch all the way to the bank! And as another person said here, this movie’s cast consists of a group of singers…and only (2) lead REAL actors…Eddie Murphy and Academy Award winner, Jamie Fox!!

wow… hope B gets an oscar for it. i hope diana gets over herself though…

beyonce always gets the most post, this one will sure be on the left under popular post for the month!!

Anika Rose is a Broadway actress as well…and I do believe she has won a Tony..correct me if I’m wrong.

SHES GOT MORE TALENT ON HER PINKY FINGER THAN All OF YOU COMBIMED

Say what you will but Diana Ross has been in the business before most of us were alive so she can say and do what she pleases! And I agree with #10 Beyonce cannot act she looks funny in the movie and Jennifer Hudson (as I stated previously on other posts regarding Dreamgirls) will sing circles around B! Beyonce is overrated and not that talented to win all of the Grammy’s she’s won let alone a darn Oscar! PLEASE!

Beyonce isn’t ocar material and if her ass get the oscar 9 times out of 10 papa Knowles done paid someone off so she can get that oscar.

It’s not right that some things was taken out of the original scene of the movie to prevent Diana Ross of getting paid her royalties but hey Beyonce is like “Walmart” whatever the hell she say’s goes.

Diana Ross is a dumba** if she doesn’t think that, that is going 2 be a great movie, 1st of all Beyonce, Jamie Foxx, and Eddie Mupphy are in the Movie. The B**** is just mad because she’s not getting any royalites because it’s about her and the Supreme’s. Diana get a life and your Hair done (I’m so tired of the nappy hair due look!!!!)

It has nothing to do with HATING……Beyonce cannot act period,I fell asleep on Pink Panther.Maybe when she plays something else besides a singer,that’s a challenge,look @ Alicia Keys new movies that are coming out,she plays a secret agent in one and a college student in the other no recording artists.I don’t know why Beyonce is playing Diana Ross anyway,her daughter should have gotten that role.

i dont believe this at all.
and im sorry but Beyonce nominated for an OSCAR?…..the thought of this pisses me off.

I agree with (Arielle#164) that Diana Ross’s Daughter should have played the part intead of Beyonce’s ass.

If Beyonce get’s an oscar trust and believe Samual L. Jackson,Angela Bassette,Lawrence Fishburn and a few other actors I can’t mention all should protest against that bull sh*t because they are outstanding actors,and actresses that have overlook for a number of years of work they put in.

beyonce getting an oscar?Wow,can’t see it yet,sorry.

Wow, I hope everybody knows that Diana will say what she wants. She’s earned her right; it’s been almost 40 years since her debut. She has the right to do what she wantsl even if it is “sabotage”. Hell, that woman has proven her talents so therefore there is no need to kind of say well she got a DUI and all that bull. I’m sure half of you up here have charges for things much worse than driving drunk. Everybody knows that Mahogany and Lady Sings the Blues was the shit and still is so just stop all the “name-calling” or else I’ll start calling Beyonce by her true true identity: “Jay-Z’s stupid bitch”.

The movie will not sell…at all; and I’m being forreal about it. As almost all of you have already said; this movie is full of singers and comedians; how can this movie possibly be taken seriously? The soundtrack will not sell simply because both Beyonce’ & Jennifer Hudson take power ballads WAY too far. The other girl, who funnily no one seems to mention at all will also be another reason as to why this movie will not sell. To have one “MAJOR” star and then two practical nobodies along side for the ride is kind of embarassing don’t you think. So why would anybody think this was Oscar worthy w/o Diana’s input in the first place. The last time Eddie Murphy played a dramatic role was in Michael Jackson’s “remember the times” video and well; he practically looked like he was gonna laugh/do something stupid through out the entire event.

To put it point-blank this movie and the story is a complete rip off of “Sparkle” and Diana’s story and I’ll be glad when Raven-Symone can find the time to start filming the remake off it because well unlike Beyonce’ she is confirmed to be a good actress and a terrific singer too.

Hush, Hush, Pass: Beyoncé Addresses Dreamgirls Drama and Plans Tour, Ciara Is On Top, Crime Mob is Back

While Beyoncé tries to squash rumors that she has brought a diva attitude to her movie career, Ciara conquers the R&B charts.

Why in the hell is Beyonce being nominated for a “Global Award”..she is being nominated for best actress in a movie…WTF that should be Jennifer Hudson..Because atleast Jennifer knows how to act. I’ve seen 4 movies that Beyonce has been in..and she sucks as an actress…BIG TIME…why is it ppl feel they need to cater to her and always put her in the light…just because she is Beyonce? And they think she is soooo sweet??? I don’t get it….Everytime Beyonce comes out and say “I want this and I want that”..it seems like Beyonce gets it….with no hesitation…..It’s like if Beyonce says “damn I want a grammy” it’s like “okay, Beyonce said she wants a grammy so lets give it to her” da fuck out of here….Why should she be nominated for anything that deals with music? Dreamgirls..she is singing and dancing..whats the difference in what she is doing in real life??? Nothing! This is sooo sad…She can sing..but dang the chick can’t act….but she is nominated for a Global Award..for best actress..I guess anyone can be nominated these days ……Next thing you know they are gonna nominate Ashanti and Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears….hell they mind as well nominate Paris Hilton too and Pamela Anderson..

That will be fool of crap if Beyonce was nominated or won an Oscar for being a real singer in real life and playing one in a movie.What sense does that make. It would have made complete since if she wasn’t a super star with singing abilities….It would made sense if she was just some ordinary girl playing a singer. Then I can see the whole Oscar thing happening. I’m disturbed by the fact she is even nominated for “Best Actress” at the 2007 Golden Globe Awards. I think that was a big mistake..and she is upagainst actresses were very very very talented and can act…I think it’s a disgrace and overwhelming. And I feel she is only nominated just because she is “Beyonce”. Nothing more nothing less. And I find it sooo unfair to everyone. A PETITION needs to be put out.

i think that this article is a lie because if diana wasnt happy he wouldn’t give beyonce ’s her blessing and another thing if diana was mad she should of say it before they evan start makind the movie.Beyonce is nominated for best actress and everything but daamn give her a chance to why do you guys think that she dont have to be nominated.i dont understand that maybe your right she cant act but she can sing so at least shes good at something give her a break.im not taking part of anybody hear but look at the pic on the top of the page see there huging won in other so there is no problem the movie you can see that its great when see the commercial and if you think that beyonce cant act than all of you guys go act instead of her.

OKAY. IF THIS IS TRUE WHAT DIANA IS DOING THAN HER CHILDREN NEED 2 PUT HER IN A CELEBRITY OLD FOLKS HOME CUZ SHE LOOSIN HER DAMN MIND.WHY WOULD U TRY 2 MESS UP THE CAREER OF ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST FANS WHO IN HER OWN LIGHT IS A SUPER STAR.I FEEL REALLY BAD FOR BEE CUZ I KNOW SHE HEAR DIS SHIT FIRST HAND.ALL I CAN SAY IS THE OSCAR NOMINATIONS ARE COMING UP IN 5 DAYS AND I HOPE BEE IS NOMINATED.SO THERE KICK ROCKS DIANA!LOL NAW I LOVE DAT PSYCHO SHE JUST NEEDS TO BRING IT DOWN A LEVEL.

Well, Beyonce did not deliver on her promise of showing us she can act. Jennifer Hudson is a natural who has the singing voice that drowns b. Jennifer can out sing her any day of the week.
She deserves the Golden Globes and the Other award she won I think it’s Critics Choice Award. She may not get the Oscar, but she was nominated for it. Beyonce wasn’t and she won’t win anything from this movie. She is not a good actor at all. I tried to be fair and give her a chance, but she did not deliver at all. Anyone could have played her part and done better.
Bravo to Eddie Murphy on his win also. They are truely talented.

beyonce wasn’t getting nominated for an award and yall know this. So it wouldn’t have mattered what diana ross did, but I do think she has a right to be upset about a movie that betrays her as a back stapping, money hungry, fame grabbing bitch.

Come on folks. My grandfather always said anyone who will read something and accept it blindly as fact is a FOOL. If it were so that Miss Ross were offended by the movie, what is wrong with that. Would you want a movie out there that portrays you as something that you deem as untrue regardless if you support the actress playing it. Get real. Time has passed and NO Beyonce did not get an Oscar and the movie itself was stolen by a then unknown, now heavily awarded and embraced Jennifer Hudson. Its interesting to go back and look at these posts in retrospect. lol

NewNubianPrincess. You call yourself that and in the same breath refer to a Black woman who paved the way and braved the elements for those like Beyonce a Bitch? Thats deep. Of course based on what you have read and heard. Once again, one who believes all that he or she reads or hears is a FOOL…..Not to mention Ignorant. Diana rocks still in her 60s. By the way. What have you and those like you accomplished much less influenced and changed in the world. lol

The woman is just plain crazy.
Just because the attention is away from her she now tries to sabotoge other people’s fame & fortune. Why dont she focus on another face lift coz the present one is cracking and falling apart.
