New Photos just released of Beyonce as she performs for Moatessem-Billah Kadhafi a.k.a. Hannibal Kadhafi at Nikki Beach on New Year's Eve at midnight to ring in 2010 in St.Bart's.
Beyonce was happy to sing her hits for the controversial Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi's son and his guests. Beyonce possibly was wearing her very own wedding ring during the hit song 'Single Ladies' as she pointed to it during the show wearing a sexy catsuit.
Beyonce has been criticized for her controversial performance for a man that's family is linked to terrorism.
Today, I noticed a trending keyword You oughta know at Google trends and decided to might as well blog about it. The keyword or key phrase is actually a song of Alanis Morissette which was one of her hits way back late 90's. Alanis was then one of my favorite female rock artists until now. A lot of people at my age knows her well (particularly those who like alternative/rock music).
Watch her live performance of You Oughta Know during the 30th Grammy Awards. You can also watch Britney Spears' and Beyonce Knowles cover of the song You oughta know.

I want you to know, that I'm happy for you I wish nothing but the best for you both An older version of me Is she perverted like me Would she go down on you in a theatre Does she speak eloquently And would she have your baby I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
'cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able To make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me Until you died, till you died But you're still alive
And I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know
You seem very well, things look peaceful I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced Are you thinking of me when you fuck her?
'cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able To make it enough for you to be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me you'd hold me Until you died, til you died But you're still alive
And I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know
'cause the joke that you laid on the bed that was me And I'm not gonna fade As soon as you close your eyes and you know it And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back I hope you feel it...well can you feel it
Well, I'm here to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know
The songstress sang a beautiful rendition of "At Last" for President Obama's first dance with wife Michelle (who might I add was clad in Jason Wu) at the Inaugural Neighborhood Ball following the Inauguration. The First Couple dazzled on the dance floor as the whole world watched their incredible moment.
Jay-Z was awarded with the United Nations Global Leadership Award on Wednesday in New York for his efforts with the Water For Life program, which works to bring clean water to Africa. Apparently, wife Beyonce was a no-show but it's pretty cool just the same.
After rumors and speculation, Jay-Z and Beyonce have tied the knot. While there's no official confirmation, sources have reported that the twosome wed in an intimate, extravagant ceremony in Tribeca, New York City. The ceremony was followed by a posh party at Jay-Z's Manhattan home. Guests included Beyonce's family, her Destiny's Child pals, and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Jay-Z and Beyonce were spotted in Scarsdale, New York picking up a marriage certificate. The document expires in 60 days, so we predict wedding bells are in the very near future for this fabulous musical twosome.
With performances by Beyonce and Tina Turner, Rihanna, Kanye's emotional tribute to his "mama," and Amy Winehouse's much-anticipated (via-satellite) performance, (not to mention her shout-out to incarcerated hubby Blake) the Grammys were definitely something to tune into last night.
Although not present in L.A., but rather in her hometown of London, Winehouse almost had a clean sweep, winning five out of the six awards she was nominated for, including record of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.
Kanye dominated the Grammys as well, winning four awards, including best rap album and best rap solo performance. Not only did he pay tribute to his late mother Donda in song, but also spoke to her in his acceptance speech.
Carrie Underwood went home with two awards, best female vocal performance and best country song for "Before He Cheats" and Alicia Keys, who opened the show singing with a virtual Frank Sinatra, took home the prize for best R&B song for "No One" as well as best female R&B vocal performance.
The last award of the night was given to the very surprised jazz artist Herbie Hancock for album of the year, beating out both Winehouse and West.
Other winners included: Best male pop vocal performance: Justin Timberlake Producer of the year, non-classical: Mark Ronson Best Pop performance by a duo or group with vocals: Maroon 5 Best rock album: Foo Fighters Best contemporary R&B album: Ne-Yo Best rap/sung collaboration: "Umbrella," Rihanna featuring Jay-Z Best male country vocal performance: Keith Urban Best country album: "These Days," Vince Gill
