Empty Set Chair: Obama Backer Beyoncé Bows Out of Eastwood Film

breitbart.com ^ | 10/10/12

[Justaham]

Beyoncé is one of the biggest stars in the country, a beautiful singer at the top of her profession.

She isn't an A-list movie star... yet.

Her work in the celebrated "Dreamgirls" didn't make that happen, nor did appearances in "The Pink Panther," "Obsessed" or "Austin Powers in Goldmember."

Clint Eastwood could have changed all that. The actor/director wanted Beyoncé to star in his planned remake of "A Star Is Born." Any Eastwood project is instantly Oscar bait, and his track record suggests he could have transformed the stunning chanteuse into an A-lister with just one film.

Now, we'll never know.

Beyoncé has backed out of the Eastwood production, citing the proverbial scheduling issues. It's certainly possible, but what star wouldn't clear his or her schedule to secure such a plum role?

Well...bye!!! Don’t let the door hit ya in ya booty....

As for miss Stacy Dash: good idea. Gorgeous young woman, brave, and smart.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

If a mocha colored lady is needed, how about Stacey Dash?

I don't think she can sing very well...or she would have shown it already.

Sorry, won’t buy into the obligatory “Beyonce is beautiful” crap. Without her make-up, wigs, and extensions, Beyonce is just another harsh looking hip-gyrator with a butt big enough to park a double-wide.

Politics aside, Beyonce is a beautiful woman with or w/o makeup..

[CitizenM]

I don't think Beyonce is a great singer. She sings loudly, is too dramatic, and uses lots of vocal tricks, but she is not a great singer. And I don't think she is beautiful. Maybe average, even attractive, but not beautiful. And now she has proved that she is not to bright by turning down a plumb role. However, I am glad...it would have ruined the movie for me. No one could top Judy Garland, who although not a beautiful woman, had a true vocal talent that everyone has agreed was hauntingly unique. Beyonce is just another in a bunch of today's female vocalists whose talent doesn't match up to the hype and who would not be nearly as popular if they weren't sensationalizing themselves in some manner.

But, what does Beyonce care...she has the Obamas fawning all over her. They form a mutual adoration society. Michelle said she would like to be Beyonce, and Barack says Beyonce is a perfect role model for his daughters. Beyonce, of course is hooked up with that obnoxious rapper JayZ with a drug dealer ""rap," and she is quite willing to shake and show her booty and other body parts to earn a buck. Nice icons for the Obama (or any) young girls. The whole bunch of them have no class, and no clue as to what sort of women should be admired.

They could digitize her like they do to everyone else.

Paging Taylor Swift!

[Hegewisch Dupa]

100% agree

” A STAR IS NOT BORN........”

a nice bod does not a star make..

Can’t tell by that pic. She is clearly wearing make-up and hair extensions. Plus, you cannot see the double-wide butt. IMO, Halle Berry is a beautiful black woman, as is Stacey Dash. Beyonce is not. But, then, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

And I don't think she is beautiful. Maybe average, even attractive, but not beautiful

CitizenM if Beyonce is average I would like to see what you consider ugly then LOL. She is way prettier than 95% of the women out in daily life.

Etta James was very unhappy that Obama asked Beyonce to sing at his inauguration and didn’t ask her. When Beyonce then sang ‘Etta’s song’ Etta was irate.

I believe Etta was still performing when Obama was inaugurated and Etta felt she should have been asked.

She is clearly wearing make-up and hair extensions.

as do most women..

Most women wear hair extensions?

[Eva]

No, most women cannot afford hair extensions. My son told me that his girl friend’s hair extensions cost $800 every couple of months.

[dead]

Instead of any serious acting role, she should just dance with an empty chair, like Flashdance.

She'd be good in a remake of Flashdance. Her and Obama.

[trailhkr1]

Most women wear hair extensions?

No they don't, I should have copied and pasted at the end of makeup but you get my point..take away makeup and a stylish hair cut and most women, not all, drop down a a peg or two.

[Hegewisch Dupa]

the double-wide butt

Your assessment is correct; assuming of course that the average woman's pooper is half the size is ought be.

[dead]

Here she is without makeup:

Not a horror show, but the makeup definitely earns it's paycheck.

This was my first exposure to Beyonce: http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=7UJ-tr8-Jl4&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D7UJ-tr8-Jl4 I thought she sounded great. I have not bothered to hear her sing since, by the way.

[SoFloFreeper]

She must be a racist.
