Beyonce Looks 15 Pounds Heavier

Beyonce Looks 15 Pounds Heavier

You can definitely see that Beyonce did, in fact, gain 15 pounds for her roles as the legendary blues singer Etta James in the upcoming movie, Cadillac Records.

The 27-year-old singer/actress also serves as executive producer for Cadillac Records, which opens in theaters everywhere on Friday, December 5.

You can listen to Beyonce‘s rendition of Etta‘s “At Last” at YouTube.com.

If you want to meet Beyonce, she’ll be at Bloomindales NYC (59th St) @ 6PM this Tuesday, October 28 to promote her clothing line, House of Dereon.

DO YOU THINK Beyonce will win an Oscar this time around? (Her costar Jennifer Hudson won Best Supporting Actress for Dreamgirls.)

Uh, she doesn’t carry a torch to the amazing voice of Etta James. She wishes, but fails miserably. Better luck next time, B.

She doesn’t deserve an Oscar, nor did Jennifer Hudson(who is the better singer of the two).

Thumb up Thumb down 0

she will not win an oscar. she can’t act…she just wants to win something because jennifer hudson, who completely deserved her Oscar because she was amaaaazing in dreamgirls and ten times the better singer. She only took this role to prove her non existent acting abilities to compete with jennifer.

I can not wait to see this, I know Beyonce doesn’t look exactly like Etta but I have a feeling that she is going to wow people with her performance in this film.

Wow, that was dull. I don’t buy Beyonce portraying Etta James; her acting skills are okay, but mostly consist of her widening her eyes. Just throwing a blonde wig on Beyonce isn’t going to cut it. Etta is alto, Beyonce is what, a soprano?

Beyonce cannot act. Her voice is too thin and she needed to gain 30lbs to portray Etta James. She is a great pop star and singer, but not a talented actress by any means. I was furious when I found out somebody greenlit Beyonce to portray her.

NO ETTA , NO WAY, NO HOW @ 10/24/2008 at 1:50 am

The only reason Beyonce has gotten this far in her career is because society is very superficial and the music industry goes by looks now, not talent.

Beyonce is an embarrassment. Her rendition of At Last is horrendous.

She has a terrible singing voice.

What is sad is that someone with Etta’s God given talent would never have been given a shot in today’s music industry unless she looked like Halle Barry. VERY SAD SAD DAY.

You don’t get an Oscar just for gaining weight.

god!!!! is this true?

oh my !
she is so popular among the sports fans @ sportinglove.c om .
she must be very nice although i don know much about her……

Thumb up Thumb down 0

she is actually one of the best singers around right now, and she can definitley act, so stop with the negativity, people who dont like her, usually dont like her because the rest does, and they want to be rebels or whatever, shes amazing and she can sing, just watch her do it!
