INAUGURAL SCOOP: BEYONCE TO SING FOR THE OBAMAS’ 1st DANCE? / RIHANNA, USHER & BOW WOW IN CONCERT
Friday, January 16, 2009
Beyonce has been selected to sing for the Obama’s first Inaugural dance on this coming Tuesday according to reports released on yesterday:
WASHINGTON (AP) - Beyonce will sing for Barack and Michelle Obama’s first dance on inauguration night.
And the song? “Crazy in Love?” Her version of Etta James’ “At Last?”
The Presidential Inaugural Committee isn’t saying. “It is our hope that we can keep the song secret until the moment,” said spokeswoman Linda Douglass. SOURCE
The singer will be performing along with her husband Jay-Z, Will.i.am, Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, Shakira, Sting, Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder and Maroon 5 at the Inaugural Neighborhood Ball that is scheduled to air live on ABC Tuesday night.
RIHANNA, USHER, & BOW WOW FOR DISNEY’S CONCERT

And speaking of big Inauguration concerts next week, Rihanna, Usher, and Bow Wow are few of many entertainers to perform at Disney’s “Kids’ Inaugural: We Are The Future,” concert. The concert, which will be hosted by Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden (wife of our Vice President elect Joe Biden), will also honor military families.
The event will take place next Monday and air live from Washington, DC on the Disney channel.

YIKES! Beyonce is killing these haters! I know they’re sitting behind their computer all hot and salty.
I am so proud of her! She’s proving to us all that no matter how many hate sites on her she’s still on her grind. Only the hottest chick can do that…

TIANNA YOU NEED TO ADD THIS !!! :
The 2009 Inaugural celebration begins with a star-studded concert at the Lincoln Memorial on Sunday, January 18 at 2 p.m. The event will be free and open to the public, kicking off the most open and accessible Inauguration in history. It will be presented by HBO 7:00-9:00 p.m. ET/PT for Americans to enjoy across the country.
I am proud to announce that the combined choirs from USNA (Men’s Glee Club, Women’s Glee Club, and Gospel Choir) will be participating in the concert!
The choir will be performing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” with classical artist Renee Fleming and “America the Beautiful” in a combined grand finale with a 500-voice choir and Beyonce. The event will include an incredible lineup of celebrities. Additional performers include Mary J. Blige, Bono, Garth Brooks, Sheryl Crow, Josh Groban, Herbie Hancock, Heather Headley, John Legend, Jennifer Nettles, John Mellencamp, Usher Raymond IV, Shakira, Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, will.i.am, and Stevie Wonder. Among those reading historical passages will be Jamie Foxx, Martin Luther King III, Queen Latifah and Denzel Washington.
The President Elect, his family, staff, and an expected 1+ million people will be in attendance!
This is an incredible opportunity for our choirs and highlights the high esteem in which our ensembles are held - on a national and international level!!!
Be sure to watch your shipmates Sunday night!”

As much as I don’t like Beyonce but how childish is it that grown folks are acting like kids over the fact that Rihanna is singing for the kids. Some of ya’ll should seek some help. I think it is an honor for every singer actor and entertainer who will be involved in with the Inauguration. Whether they are singing reading or received an invitation to be there. I mean this is the time to come together and ya’ll are acting like singing for the kids is a bad thing. SMDH at black people.

The fact people think Beyonce is so talented is telling enough. If anything, this is just a testament to how powerful the machine that controls her career is. Apparently a lot of people can be fooled most of the time. Change a single word of someone else’s song and take credit for it? LOL.

Now that I really think about it, Bey has accomplished so much. When she has children, I’m sure she’ll have stories after stories to tell them about her life adventure. She is such a special women whether she shakes it like a salt shaker or not. Her accomplishments alone make one think of how amazing she is. I just don’t understand how someone can hate this woman. I’m sure when she has children they will be cockier than ever, like “Well my Mommy did this, and won this, and met blah blah blah” and “My Daddy won this, and did this” and “My parents get millions a day”. They would have every right to be conceited.
Just imagine that. Bey deserves a wonderful family, I hope she settles down within the next couple of years and starts one.

Wow, I’m going to have to stop responding in Beyonce posts because its quite obvious that some of you have an unhealthy obsession with this woman. I am a fan, but good Lord. If Beyonce were singing for our military families, which is what Ri is doing on the Disney Channel, many would swear that it was the highest honor. I guess that “hate” for some of you is a two edged sword. Congrats to Beyonce, but darn it, that Ri just remains so relevant. Man, speaking of fallin’ back..

Fourth man arrested in JFK terror plot
Guyanese man surrenders in Trinidad
A terror plot that could have killed millions of Americans is stopped by authorities. So far, 3 people have been arrested and authorities are looking for a 4th in this alleged terror plot on the JFK Airport in New York City. Reports show that the plot was to blow up jet fuel pipelines and tanks at JFK to create a massive explosion. One pipeline stretches nearly 40 miles from Linden, New Jersey to the airport and goes through residential neighborhoods. Authorities say one of the suspects, a U.S. citizen and a native of Guyana, once worked at the airport
Terror Plot Takedown
one a legal immigrant from Haiti and one an illegal Haitian immigrant. Federal prosecutors say the men were members of a “homegrown” terrorist cell that had pledged allegiance to Al Qaeda and was plotting deadly, 9/11-scale attacks.
The government charges they intended to blow up the FBI’s Miami headquarters and bring down the Sears Tower in Chicago.

In 2002, MSM comprised 46 percent of new US AIDS cases, but only 40 percent in Florida. New cases stemming from heterosexual sex were 11 percent in the United States for 2002, but 20 percent in Florida.

Beyonce is so awesome. I bet she could cure cancer and AIDs too just by singing Bootylicious acapella on the western coast of Africa. And that’s just one of the classic musical gems in which she graced the world with her excellent songwriting skills. I’m just not sure why they didn’t tap her to write Barack’s inauguration speech. Imbeciles. Hopefully Michelle Obama, a much less accomplished female, will look to Bey and Tina Knowles for her White House fashions. Who knows what she could accomplish in ill fitting, cheap fabrics laden with sequins and blond Yakky. It could be the White House of Dereon!!! I just love BEYONCE SO MUCH I WANT TO BE HER BEST FRIEND AND BACKUP SINGER AND I WOULD DRINK HER SWEAT SO SHE CAN BE A PART OF ME. OH MY GOD BEYONCE PLEASE READ THIS AND CALL ME BECAUSE I NEED A JOB AND I WILL MOVE IN WITH YOU AND JAY AND LICK THE FLOOR IF YOU ASK ME TO!!!!

Honestly, the only reason Beyonce is performing because #1 she asked and #2 Jennifer Hudson turned it down. The world knows how much she has been begging to “do something”….still not impressed! Also she performed for Bush and was not supporting Obama until it was clear that he was going to get the Nom. from the Dem. Party.

Beyonce and Jay are rich Republicans who got richer from Bush and his tax cuts for the wealthy. They care about themselves and being known in history rather than doing it from their hearts. I bet money once the Obama’s are in the white house they will have no association with “The Carters”.
The Keywords: Inauguration Night….not the actual inauguration.

Yuck to all the Beyonce stans. She is one of many performers at the ceremony. The real star at the event is Obama, the first black president of the USA. I think the majority of Beyonce stans are a combination of:
1. 90’s babies.
2. Uneducated adults
and
3. Gay black men that need a female diva to emulate
and
Obama is the real star. Beyonce is one of my performers there to celebrate this event.
…Looking forward to seeing lots of performers including Alicia Keys, Stevie Wonder, Sting, Mary J, and more. Let’s celebrate our first black president not STUPIDITY!!!!!!!

Congratulations to Beyonce for the honor of singing the first song that Barack and Michelle will dance too!! People who hated on you, aren’t even going to be able to sleep good at night. They said that you weren’t performing at ALL, they said that the Neighborhood Ball wasn’t official, they said “oh you’re just performing with other entertainers”, and look at this great honor. Even better the first Black president will be enjoying his night.
Now people always knew that this day should be focused on the historic nature of a black man being sworn into Presidency. However people took it too far. They twisted Beyonce words, into her beggining, and all of this unnecessary stuff. They created petitions about her NOT singing at any inauguration events, A PETITION. So in reality they swayed the nature of this event. What many people are saying in this thread is, that it is an honor that Beyonce got to perform, and it is even better given that people tried to tear her down once again. Obviously the committee, and Barack and Michelle Obama adore and love Beyonce’s talents, why else would she be performing THEIR FIRST SONG. Don’t people know that hating doesn’t help anything, it just gives people the energy and the strength to continue to go above and beyond.
It’s great to see a black woman rising above the hate, and being able to realize dreams. And it’s even better that it’s for such the historic moment of Barack Obama becoming President of the United States.

Of course we all know its not about Beyoncé but damn I feel all her fans and stans! Do you read MTO sometimes? Beyoncé and her husband were trashed and they said such horrible things bout this innauguration saying B wouldnt, Jay was banned and all those lies. Beyoncé only said if the Obamas needed her she will be there for anything, she is a volunteer; the mad blogs and people claimed she wanted everything to perform that she wanted to promote herself, started bashing her and mocking her , they said JHud was the one and had the nerve, some ppl called women with dignity (my ass women with hate and jealousy yeah) to create a petition against Beyoncé because they said she was trash and couldnt sing she was garbage basically for such an historic event, they spread this around internet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP3W2G-Hg30
http://www.thepetitionsit...eyonce-at-the-inaguration
So yeah I truly understand if her fans are more than happy for her this is huge and karma is a b!tch they were clowing this couple and now B is performing THREE TIMES and Jay one time!
Now where are these haters now? NOWHERE wha is MTO sayin? NOTHING
SO YEAH GO BEYONCE AND JAY-Z THISIS AN HONOR I KNOW SHE GONNA KILL THAT WHAT A BLESSING SO HISTORICAL!

I knew she was performing, I mean, seriously in this generation who can perform better than this woman? Write one name! The Obamas way before were elected said B was their favorite and Obama himself asked for her autograph and their daughters love Beyoncé, the whole family saw her on the Beyoncé experience. People also forget that B campaigned for them and let her own promo in Japan to this election. So im not surprised but happy fo her, very, this is huge. I dot understand ppl who would like to stop her. It was a matter of time. They place her higher than legends, performing at the presidential couple’s first dance is ridiculous wow its AMAZING!
http://video.aol.com/vide...amy-for-beyonce/333844128
Monday night, Island Def Jam chairman L.A. Reid threw a fund-raiser for Obama at his upper East Side home. Obama worked his magic on a crowd that included designer Tommy Hilfiger, singer Babyface Edmonds, Island Urban president (and Janet Jackson beau) Jermaine Dupri, Universal Music honcho Doug Morris and record execs Steve Bartels, Sylvia Rhone and Andre Harrell. Each paid $2,300 for sushi cones, pomegranate margaritas and Obama’s vision of the future.
“He spoke for about 20 minutes, never mentioning Hillary Clinton,” one guest tells us. “He was very impressive. People formed a circle around him. He shook everybody’s hand and asked what they did.”
But one lady needed no introduction. Feasting his eyes on Beyoncé, the candidate said: “I never do this, but can I ask for your autograph?” The admiration seemed mutual as they posed for a photo. “I want a copy of that picture!” said Obama.
I do think Beyoncé’s karma is really something special because when you hate on her, she bounces back unexpectly and the way she does its effortless and it hurts but it truly does hurt haters, ppl who wish her bad. Its not the first time, she always got the last word and God really made this woman special she is extremely fortunate, if you ask me, she is one of the most fortunate ppl on earth she got everything and succeeds in everything even if its after tears and sweat.
YOU GO B!
GO OBAMA!

Jennifer Hudson didn’t turn it down she simply wasn’t asked, her publicist already spoke on that rumor, she’s performing at the Grammy’s and the Superbowl so why would she turn this down if she was asked but agree to those performances when it’s the biggest event of the 3? that’s just something haters came up with to make themselves feel better, and even if it were true there are hundreds of people he could have choosen to replace her but he choose Beyonce deal with it.
As for the wholke “she begged” excuse that’s bull, she said she’d like to perform for him in one interview (after being asked would she like to, who would say no?) and because the public tends to harp on everything she says that one quote got circulated to every blog, and news outlet in the country that’s not her fault her smallest of words hold such power over the public. If Obama didn’t really want her no amount of begging would get him to select her, maybe he would have given her a small spot on one of the lesser balls like the kids ball with Bow Wow and nem, but to give her the first dance performance at the nieghborhood ball and the big grand finale performance at the opening Lincoln Memorial concert, nahhh. face it your President is a Bee fan, he said as much during the campaign as did his wife (who took both their daughters to meet Bee at her concert in 07 because they “love her to death” as Barrack put it.), hate is such an ugly thing.
