0/20 host Katie Couric unexpectedly reaches for Beyonce’s baby bump. In an uncomfortable moment, a startled Beyonce abruptly reaches for Katie’s hand!

Behind The scenes’ video explaining the concept behind the song and music video. The video, which was directed by herself along with Solange’s boyfriend director Alan Ferguson, is about losing control and giving yourself fully to one man:

“Dance For You” is about giving yourself fully to one person. It’s about being able to lose control with the person you’re meant for. Both the medley and the lyrics make it one of my most intimate songs, so I wanted the video to have the same rawness.
I wanted the video to have a classic feel; to be seductive but still keep the sense of mystery. When I write, when I perform, and when I make music videos, I don’t hold anything back. Dance for you is about that same passion; to be free and unrestrained.

On Sunday night in New York City at the Paris Theatre Beyonce walked the red carpet in a floor length chocolate gown accentuating her growing baby bump. Ms. Knowles was set to host the press and her fans to the screening of “Live at Roseland: The Elements of 4″ DVD. During her sit down the glowing mommy to be revealed to an Associated Press reporter that hiding her pregnancy during her four nights of performance was difficult.

“The whole time I definitely was thinking, ‘Everyone knows, everyone can see,’ ” she shared.

It's been three years since Beyoncé and Jay-Z tied the knot in an intimate, top-secret New York City ceremony back in 2008, and the singer finally decided to reveal her wedding dress.

The reception took place in a marquee, which was assembled on the terrace of Jay-Z's Tribeca penthouse.

It was reportedly decorated with a 60,000 white orchids imported from Thailand, which the couple splashed out a whopping $500,000 on.

Not too long ago, Beyonce presented us with the news that she is pregnant, ever since the announcement, she has appeared out and about in public wearing oversized outfits to hide her stomach region. We have never seen a first time mom work so hard in hiding her stomach from the world by wearing oversized, bulky clothing. What is Beyonce hiding? the fact that she is not pregnant and that her protruding stomach she showed us at the VMA’s was just one that was filled with gas? For someone claiming to be pregnant and has shut down many in her camp and family from speaking of her pregnancy, this only feeds even more suspicion surrounding “her pregnancy.”

Beyonce pregnancy conspiracy theorists have been buzzing all weekend after seeing her perform on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” with The Roots on Friday night.
Somebody needs to show Beyonce the money, so she can show the world her growing baby bump! Her belly appeared to be flat, but it’s not because a fake baby bump deflated. Beyonce’s performance was reportedly filmed three months ago, even though it aired on a new show.

Take a look at Beyonce performing “Countdown” in the video below.
I don't think she is pregnant at ALL.

While Beyonce was gifted the pink version, the bling tub, weighing in at more than 3,000 pounds, is available in all the Swarovski colors. It can also be used for pets or as a beverage chiller for parties.

Beyonce basked in her pregnancy glow as she made a guest appearance on Australia’s ‘Sunday Night’ today. Discussing an range of topics, the diva couldn’t mask her emotions as she talked about her impending motherhood, her many successes and superstardom.

Strangely, Beyonce did not debut her video for ‘Love on Top’ during the broadcast as initially reported. A preview of the simple visual was release today.

It was recently stated in The New York Post:

Just after Rowland checked into the Empire Hotel Thursday night, Knowles arrived there with her bodyguard, who waited two hours in the lobby while she visited her old bandmate in a suite upstairs.

…We are glad to hear that Bey and Kelly are still close.

London’s calling Beyoncé Knowles! The hot, not-single lady went to meet up with husband, rapper Jay-Z last night at Mahiki night club in London. Rihanna was also at the club for the Nokia X6 launch party and concert. Beyoncé has been in London on her world wide concert tour for her most recent album, I Am Sasha Fierce.

R&B star Beyonce Knowles has postponed a planned concert in Malaysia, the event's organizer said Monday, following accusations by Islamic conservatives that the show would be immoral.

Knowles, known for her provocative clothes and choreography, had been scheduled to perform at a Kuala Lumpur stadium Oct. 25. The show "has been postponed to a future date to be announced shortly," Malaysian entertainment company Marctensia said in a statement.

"The postponement is solely (the) decision of the artist and has nothing to do with other external reasons," the statement said.

A Marctensia representative declined to say whether the decision was prompted by criticism from the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, the country's largest opposition group, which has called for the show to be scrapped because it would promote "Western sexy performances."

Knowles also canceled a planned performance in Malaysia in 2007 following protest threats by the opposition Islamic party. At the time, her talent agency said the show was called off due to a scheduling conflict.

Instead, Knowles went to Indonesia, also a largely Muslim country, which has less stringent rules about how performers should dress and behave. Female artists at Malaysian concerts are required by government rules to cover up from the shoulders to knees, with no cleavage showing.

Last month, Marctensia addressed concerns that Knowles might wear inappropriate outfits, saying "all parties have come to an amicable understanding" about stage costumes.

Other female pop stars such as Avril Lavigne and Gwen Stefani have performed in Malaysia despite similar protest threats by conservative Muslims. Both singers wore clothes that revealed little skin.

Some entertainment industry officials say the strict regulations and frequent controversies have discouraged many international artists from visiting Malaysia.

Singer, actress, businesswoman and celebrity wife Beyoncé Knowles can now add another bragging right to her resume: Performer at the first-ever Formula One race in Abu Dhabi.
Knowles will co-headline the show with rock band Aerosmith. According to the Associated Press, the starring acts will close the two-day Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which takes place on October 29 and October 30.
Producer Timbaland is also set to attend the event, which will include free concerts and films at the Persian Gulf beachfront.
Knowles will close out the first day of the racing event with a performance on Yas Beyonce is slated to kick off the festivities on Thursday, Oct. 29. Aerosmith will wrap things up three days later. But the only way fans in the conservative Gulf city can see them is to buy tickets to the F1 race.
Concerts are also planned for Friday and Saturday, though the headliners haven't been announced.
Some of the attractions planned around the Emirati capital's first Formula One race include outdoor movies and free concerts - including one by hip-hop producer Timbaland - on the city's Persian Gulf beachfront.

Beyonce Knowles is being sued by clothing firm Abercrombie and Fitch over her soon-to-launch perfume line.

The R&B star recently signed with the fragrance giant Coty to launch a line of perfumes in 2010. Apparently, the big bosses of Abercrombie are worried that the line from Beyonce or Sasha Fierce would infringe on its own Fierce fragrance brand, even though Coty said it had no plans of using the Sasha Fierce name with the new Beyonce perfume.
According to papers filed in Ohio, Abercrombie has held a trademark for the word ‘fierce’ since 2003. Since Beyonce’s recent album is entitled “I Am… Sasha Fierce,” the company claims that Beyonce would unfairly benefit from the reputation Abercrombie had built for their scent, probably even confusing customers into thinking it was associated with Beyonce’s fragrance. The company also believes that this potential confusion could deprive it of control over its trademark and ultimately cost it sales.
As for Coty, the company released a statement saying, “The terms Fierce and Sasha Fierce are not being used as names of a Beyonce fragrance. Details related to the fragrance, including the official name, will be revealed prior to the launch in early 2010.”
Abercrombie sells Fierce at more than 350 retail stores, having sold more than $190m worth of the fragrance since it was launched in 2002.

The most amazing thing about Beyoncé's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" video isn't the dancing, the leotards, the mesmerizing movement of the Queen B's hips or the set's eerie minimalism (though, all of those things are pretty epic). No, what's most amazing is that it was never meant to be a hit at all.
Seems "Single Ladies" — which is nominated for nine Moonmen at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, including Video of the Year — was basically an afterthought. Director Jake Nava got around to it only after wrapping production on "If I Were a Boy," a higher-gloss, higher-profile video that was originally intended to be the main attraction of B's first two I Am ... Sasha Fierce singles.

"The video was shot back-to-back with 'If I Were a Boy' in New York City, but as soon as we finished the edit, I realized it was special," Nava wrote to MTV News in an e-mail. "I don't think any of us predicted the amount of parodies it would attract. It's a testament to Beyoncé's mind-boggling talent and to the fact that sometimes, less really can be more."
