Beyonce Knowles is "over being a pop star." The "Crazy in Love" singer admits she now feels it is time she is considered an "icon" in the music industry. She said: "I'm over being a pop star. I don't want to be a hot girl. I want to be iconic. And I feel like I've accomplished a lot. I feel like I'm highly respected, which is more important than any award or any amount of records. And I feel like there comes a point when being a pop star is not enough." "I now think I'm opening doors for more black women, just like Halle Berry and Diana Ross opened doors for me." Beyonce also spoke about her alter-ago who she calls 'Sasha', explaining when she acts as 'Sasha' she has a lot more confidence. She added to Britain's Marie Claire magazine: "Things I do when I am performing I would never do normally. I always wish I could feel the way I do on stage when I'm doing a movie because I have out of body experiences. I'm so fearless." *** August 7, 2008: " Beyonce Knowles White - washed in New L'Or�al Ad ?"

Earlier that month the pair were besieged by rumors that they were all set to get hitched in the Caribbean � a rumor that was quickly scotched by their reps. *** |
