ROUNDUP: BEYONCE NAMED ARTIST OF THE DECADE AT NRJ MUSIC AWARDS / MO’NIQUE WINS A SAG AWARD

Beyonce accepts the 2010 NRJ Music Award for Artist of the Decade from Pharrell Williams on Saturday in Cannes, France. Earlier this month, the superstar said she plans on taking a 6-month break to “just live life”.

MO’NIQUE WINS A SAG AWARD

Mo’Nique was another big winner this weekend after winning the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for Precious at the 16th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG) in Los Angeles on Saturday.

In a People interview last month, she said, “I know Mary Jones. I know that monster – that character for me, in my life, was my older brother.” Her brother molested her four times over the course of four years. “When I confronted him and told my parents, he said I was lying, and nothing was really done,” she said.

Her brother later served 15 years in prison for sexually abusing another girl, and although he has never apologized to Mo’Nique, Precious helped her to forgive him:

“I’m angry. I’m mad. I’m hurt. I’m crying, but doing this movie made me say, ‘You know what? I forgive.’ I forgive and I wish he would get the help that he needs, so no one else will go through it. It’s my obligation to let people know, and to tell them to watch their children.”

Having won a number of awards already for the role, Mo’Nique is considered front-runner for the supporting actress Oscar. Nominees will be announced February 2.

    daddy….. decade yea aaght ….. imma hater …. lol

  2. Classy!

    Just another award financed by team Knowles. Britney should have won that, she’s the best-selling female artist of this decade (8th best of all time). Oh well. These award shows have become pretty meaningless as they keep pandering to the same artists.

    Congrats to Mo’Nique. She totally deserves her awards. Haven’t seen her competition’s work, but she was outta sight in “Precious”. I hope she continues to develop her acting-she could be one of the greats.

    @ 36, I ‘m with you but yourf orgot to mention all that vaginal gyrating she does too. Such a poor role model for young girls who think her “moves” are cute.

    I do think she deserved the award though.

  4. In Love With Letoya Luckett

    It should be the OTHER way around, Beyonce should be handing the award to Skateboard P

  5. lol is the first time they gave out a “decade” award? She deserves it though.

    I hope Mo’Nique gets the Oscar! She is trailblazing for ALL actors by not letting Hollywood call the shots for her, good job Mo.

    Daddy Knowles is still paying people to get his daughter awards in her desperate quest to be an American and music icon. What a joke.

  7. simplylovely

    Wow, molested by you own brother! 8-0 I would kill my brother if he try to do that to me! God bless Monique for having enough compassion to forgive such an horrible person! If that academy award show has enough sense they better give the Oscar to Monique!

  8. LOL

    @ EMILY

    BlTCH PLEASE! YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO SAY I DON’T BELONG HERE WHEN YOU ARE ALL UP IN EVERY RIHANNA POST? LMAO BEYONCE STANS ARE THE BIGGEST HYPOCRITES!

  9. Annoymous

    Congrats to Bey & NiQue!!!! Great job ladies. But I’m curious, this is my first time hearing about the “NRJ” awards so can someone please tell me what “NRJ” stands for? Thank you…

  10. annieee! :D♥

    congrats Bey and Mo!!! it’s VERY WELL deserved :D ♥ love y’all!

  11. emily

    @ LOL
    uhm, so are you….you told bey stans to stay in this post and leave hoeanna’s yet here you are so what does that say bout you? Gtfoh…..
    The other hoeanna stans stooping so low to make allegations thatthat Beyonce’s dad bought the award are without a doubt in my mind the DUMBEST set of people on here…..you’re nothing but idiots….when hoeanna won artist of the year for doing absolutely NOTHING, you were having orgasms and saying she deserved it but someone who’s been in the game for a decade and is still so successful doesn’t deserve hers? Gtfoh with that bs…take your foolishness somewhere else

    @ anonymous: the only joke here is you….the fact that your dumbass made that statement just shows how retarded you are….smh

  12. talentless+bajan=(rihanna)

    LOL how many of you haters are making 87 million a year?
    how many of you just been nominated for ten grammy’s?
    which other artist has received an award for artist of the decade?

    she achieves more in a WEEK then all haters will achieve in your LIFETIME looool
    pitiful souls

  13. shanelle

    Beyonce is so pretty! Luv her!
    I’m happy 4 Monique…haven’t seen the movie yet cuz 4 some reason, it didn’t get shown here kmt.
    @ 2 bad, err….when she sang Halo, If I Were A Boy, Broken Hearted Girl, Smash Into You etc, where the f*ck where u? spare me dat rubbish sentence you left….how convenient 2 rely on only 1 song out of the 20 in her album to back your comment with kmft
    @ lol, so it’s ok for u 2 leave numerous comments on Beyonce’s post, but when we go 2 rihanna’s posts, u start getting angry?????? Snm!
    @ Anonymous and msblknasty1, u both are funny 2 me…if u think dat’s why she got the award, then u’re definitely stuck in denial. Poor things
    It’s funny cuz all the people i just replied are stans of rihanna Lmao…aww, they’re clearly unhappy Beyonce is putting them 2 shame! Maybe if your idol gets some singing and dancing lessons, then she can be acknowledged with such prestigous award…..walking around half-naked nd talking bout her sex-life isn’t helping her at all.
    In the meantime, keep the ridiculous comments coming though…they’re cracking me up….sum1 talked about her accent??? Omd…she sounded perfectly FINE! People are going in 4 no reason…jheeze

    @Gwada Kween
    Très bien alors parlons français, parce que apparemment tu ne comprends pas ce que je veux dire…
    Je viens de Suisse, j’ai fait la moitié de mes études universitaires en France, je sais très bien que NRJ est une radio très populaire. Mais qui dit “populaire”, dit “être pris au sérieux”? Je ne crois pas non ; surtout pas en musique. NRJ est LA radio des ados attardés et boutonneux (désolée du stéréotype, mais là il est juste) qui ne se préoccupe quasi que de la musique “poubelle”, éphémère (sauf quelques exceptions). Ce show perd en crédibilité tout simplement… Un peu comme les AMA et bientôt si ça continue, les Grammys.
    Et ce n’est pas parce que mon artiste préférée n’a pas gagné que j’en fait toute histoire (en plus, j’aime bien qqs chansons de Rihanna), c’est parce que c’est pas mérité tout simplement (selon moi).

  15. Classy!

    Why is my comment awaiting moderation? B/c I said B.r.i.t.n.e.y should have won that silly NRJ award?

  16. Diva

    So this award is silly when Beyonce wins? But when Rihanna won International Artist of the Year, it wasn’t? Rihanna stans need to stop. And SHELLBOOGIE has some nerve saying Beyonce is overated and that Alicia Keys has more talent in her pinky when she stans for a chick who is miles below both of them when it comes to talent (Rihanna). Pathetic. Just another Beyonce hater who can’t give props when she deserves them.

  17. shanelle

    @ jaimie, this is wat i can’t stand. Are u Kelly or Michelle? Y are u complaining so much bout her not thanking them…actually, how do u know she didn’t????
    Omd….Your essays really can’t and are not going 2 change anything….2003-2010 is about a decade if u ask me….i see u slyly trying 2 over-analyze everyfing…and your reason for being unhappy with her is cause she supposedly ‘swaggerjacked’ people???? Really????
    Kmt, sometimes i wish she wasn’t a member of DC, then we’ll see wat other reasons people would use 2 criticise her.
    @ mamadoc, offstage she’s one of the few artists that can actually be referred to as a positive role model…i don’t care what anyone says…no scandals, drugs, drunken acts, shameless sex life, has stacks of awards and is living proof of what hardwork and dedication does…she doesn’t even swear (curse) lol….what’s not to look up to???
    What she does on stage is part of her act….please! stop using those 2 bring her down….others are worse off and onstage yet people still have the nerve 2 call them role models kmft

  18. shanelle

    Ok, this is my last comment lol
    @ classy, lmao…correct me of i’m wrong but aren’t u a rihanna stan???? cause u know she’s not as good as Beyonce, u smartly decided 2 use Britney’s name Lmmmmaaaaaaaoooooooo. Can we say D-E-S-P-E-R-A-T-E. regardless of wat u think, Beyonce won it! There’s always next decade for Britney Lol

  19. catdaddy

    who was that blk actress that won all them awards leading up to the oscars then only to lose it to that white women……. was it last year…. or the year before? so ni-que keep your fingers crossed cause them people in hollywood is some shady MF”ERS….. good luck…….

  20. gigi

    RENE you’re suggesting Beyonce is fake because your comment was deleted LMFAO. How dumb. Yes Beyonce does work hard but so do others esp my girl AK, who i think deserves it too. They both deserve it.
    As long as the Beyonce stans keep disliking Rihanna, i’ll keep rooting for their ‘god’ LOL, but yaw need to stop talking slick bout AK. Some comments are uneccessary
    Now, Mo knows damn well she gave the best performance she could have. She totally destroyed that role…in a good way. Get it Monique! I see you girl! Oscars, here we come..hopefully!
    I also totally agree with how it’s absurd for Rihanna’s slaves to claim someone does not deserve an award they clearly worked hard for while they stay kissing Rihanna’s ass and acting as if every award she got was deserved and the most important thing created. Get realisitic.

  21. Bonny.Coquet

    I think the award was actually Artist of the Generation. I may be wrong though. Well deserved. She did the most L’oreal lipstick commercials, filmed the most musicals, most ‘Good Morning America’ and ‘Today Show’ performances. She’s the most overused female this generation and her work-ethic is incredible. Congratulations. and congrats to Monique as well!!!

  22. dee

    Congrats!!! Mo’ Nique

  23. Angie

    NEXT!! TIRED OF BEYONCE I LIKE HER BUT MY BRAIN IS GETTIGN TIRED OF SEEING HER. WE NEED SOME NEW FRESH TALENTED ROLE MODELS SHE HAS PROVED HER POINT OK. NEXT PLZ. MUCH LOVE

  24. George

    And the news for today the weather in the midwest is calming down ………………………..

  25. Classy!

    @Diva

    I never said anything about Rihanna’s award… I call it silly b/c it’s the NRJ’s. That award show is that musically credible. Really none of them are.

    @Shanelle

    I do like Rihanna, but I’m a die hard Britney. I get that Beyonce was given the award, that’s cool. I was simply stating in my post they never posted why I think Britney should have won. This is a blog. That’s why people comment…to say what they think. It’s pretty telling and funny how quickly you felt the need to take a jab about Rihanna. She wasn’t even mentioned and you’re trying to determine whether I’m a Rihanna fan so you can have grounds to dismiss my opinion? Wow. Some of you Bey fans are really paranoid. For whatever reason, Rihanna must has y’all shook.

    @ 37 ( Truthfully Speaking)

    First OF ALL, PLEASE STOP HATING !!!! She deserved ARTIST of The DECADE becasue she is. She has been constantly working and expanding her reportoire of music. She is a very versatile Artist who has proven her stabiliyy, love, and passion for her field. She has set the standard for other female Artist. From fashion, to her outstanding performances, she continues to set the mold. Granted I hate the red lipstick, she is a normal person like the rest of us with extraordinary talent, she has her good and bad days.

    People STOP HATTIN !!! Cause at least she is doing with she love and dont mind being herself, while yo ass sitting at home typing up yo hatin ass response she makin money with that ugly ass million dollar red lipstick !!! And she may be fake to us and to the camera, but Jay-Z loves who she is when she is with Him. And i hope she is fake to us, to prtoect her ! Cause if we knew who she really was, yall might really be HATIN.

    BEYONCE I LOVE your work. And give these ppl a show, and go home and be with ya man !!! Wear what makes u feel good and looks good to You, and do YOU ! Let the haters hate, cause your true FANS (ME) we love you for your work, your independence and your Fierceness and EXTRAORDINARY TALENT !!!!!

  28. Holleywood

    MO this is deep! Congrats!! Thanks CL. J Dakar thanks! :)

  29. Ayanna - The Orginal One

    @ #86 I’m a Britney fan too…..I was thinking the same thing about why Brit didnt win, or if she was even nominated….b/c Brit has def contributed more to the music world than Bey has within the past decade….
    but w/e Bey was still a good choice IMO.

  30. QUeenAlicia

    LMAO @ people who say Beyoncé is better than Alicia because “she can sing AND dance blah blah blah”

    As if the greatest artists of all time HAD to dance….

    Bob Dylan said Alicia was the best of our generation and everybody who knows Music, the real music, not the POP trash on the radio thar Beyoncé does, will agree with me.

    ALicia is the best female of the decade. PERIOD ! ANd will always be more respected than Beyoncé and all the fake singers that are around…

  31. FlyyIAm

    Beyonce deserves this award. Her hard work and talent carries her enough. SMH at the HATE. Everyday Beyonce laughs her ass off to the Bank.

  32. Jolie

    Bey deserved tht award,and yes it was an honourary award for ‘Greatest Artist of the Decade bt she deserved it for all her hardwork frm her early DC days till nw…..and SMDH at pple thinkin DC was a group,Bey was a solo act frm day 1—-we all knw ths,the others were just back-up….hence the name Destiny’s ‘Child’………Matthew,Tina and Bey knw ths all along

  33. miz colonel

    @ 69. Annoymous ”NRJ” is the french abbreviation for ‘energy’ since in french J is pronounced like g and g is pronounced like j.

  34. QUeenAlicia

    It was not an award for best artist of the decade !

    Get your fact straight.

    It was just and honorary award because she was there. End Of.

  35. Kellz

    Beyonce getting artist of the decade proves why I don’t listen to the radio because mainstream music is crap. This is proof so I’m officially along w/ our society. Thank you and good night lol.

  36. T

    Where are teh pictures from teh SAG awards?

  37. Sali

    I’m sure Beyonce would have rather won the award that Monique won. But, that will never happen, so I do congratulate her for winning her award and hope she stays in her lane.

    Congrats ladies!

  38. Tha Phoenix

    I actually agree with Rene – although I stan for Queen B. It would be good to see somebody competing with her – I’m sure she’d even like the competition. Remember how interesting music was when peeps like Backstreet Boys and Nsync were competing, Britney and Christina. It was always fun then…

  39. mamadoc

    @77, it’s called having CLASS, which doesn’t have jack $hit to do with how talented a person is.

    No CLASSY woman would be caught dead gyrating their vagina on stage ALL the time, during EVERY performance. So it doesn’t matter what she does off stage because CLASS should be displayed no matter where you are!!!

  40. shanelle

    @ classy
    please! there’s nothing to be paranoid about…u’re a rihanna stan and we know it….i do respect ur comment though, seeing as u were very polite and all.

  41. Jérémy

    Il ne s’agit pas d’un award pour la célébrer artiste de la décennie, mais simplement pour ses 10 ans de carrière.

    It’s is not an award for the artist of the decade, it’s an special award for her 10 years of career. If you understand french , where you ear Nikos said ” Artiste de la décénnie”?
    he said ” Une artiste immense, une star internationnale et nous avons décidé de lui remettre un prix d’exception , parcequ’elle est une artiste d’exception *little movie: 10 ans de carrière , 100 millions de disques vendu, Une artiste d’exception, Une icône ; Beyoncé” . Now i think that you must read french web sites cause english web sites don’t have a good translation.
    bye

    sorry for my english (i’m french)

  42. HATERS

    OF COURSE!!!!! BEYONCE IS THE ARTIST OF THE DECADE!!!

    Billboard named her that as well. Most end of decade lists had her on there as the top female of the decade and it’s the truth.

    She looks GORGEOUS!!!!!

    POW!
