Beyonce Top Chartin’ But Inside, Hurtin’

Published on January 19, 2007 at 9:04 AM

In terms of her singing career, Beyonce Knowles is a steamroller. Not only is the “Dreamgirls” soundtrack (for which she sang lead for many songs) at #1 again this week, but that can’t-get-it-out-of-your-head revenge ballad “Irreplaceable” just topped Billboard’s Hot 100 chart for the seventh consecutive week. Sure, Akon has two songs in the top 10, but neither of them can match the hypnotic powers of “To the left, to the left.”

Of course, we know Beyonce went home empty-handed Monday night after losing the Golden Globe for best actress in a musical or comedy to the great Meryl Streep. (Could’ve been worse, B!) We didn’t see any Faith Hill-style freakouts from Ms. Knowles, but apparently her dad told reporters B was shut out because she is black, according to I Don’t Like You In That Way. Kind of a weird claim to make when Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy and Forest Whitaker all just bagged awards. I guess anything is better than believing your daughter just wasn’t that captivating onscreen!

Anyway, if you haven’t seen Beyonce’s hilariously inappropriate Globes dress, check out her Golden Globes below. (Oh yes. I went there.)


And, special bonus, here’s Best Supporting Actress Jennifer Hudson and Beyonce hugging it out.
