Looks like Beyonce’s a little shy about showing off her wedding ring. The couple were photographed at a basketball game, but she was careful to hide her hand. Aaaw. come on Beyonce!

Beyonce and Jay-Z quietly tied the knot on Friday. A source said the ceremony was a “really private affair” with just friends and family, followed by a party in Jay-Z’s apartment. Celeb guests included Destiny’s Child Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and Gwyneth Paltrow.DJ Cassidy handled the music, while Amy’s Orchids imported 50,000 to 60,000 white orchid blooms for the decor.

Though talk of the upcoming wedding began when news leaked that the couple got a wedding license, some say that it’s an elaborate April Fool’s joke.

A great big hearty Happy Birthday going out to Beyonce Knowles today, who is celebrating her 26th birthday!

Do it up big, Beyonce!

The nominations for the 2007 MTV Music Video Awards are finally in, it seems like it takes longer each passing year.  And guess who’s leading the pack?  None other than Justin Timberlake & Beyonce Knowles, each with 7 nods. 

Among the noms, Justin & Beyonce have been nominated for Video of the Year & Male and Female Artist of the Year, respectively.

Should be a good one this year!

Beyonce Knowles is just a big sweetiepie.  After a pyrotechnics accident that occurred during one of her concerts, landing two front row fans in the hospital, Beyonce was at their bedsides.

The concert in question took place Sunday night & at the very start of the set (that’s gotta suck) an onstage pyrotechnics display spilled out into the front row.  Though the fan’s injuries were minor (I imagine their spirits were more injured from scoring front row seats & not even seeing the damn concert), Beyonce surprised the emergency room by showing up after the concert had ended.

A hospital nurse confirmed the story, saying, ”[Beyonce] was just very concerned about the people injured in the audience…I just thought it was a great thing for someone of her stature to do.”

And that is why Beyonce gets the Sweetiepie of the Day Award!

I have to admit, sometimes being a celebrity is a little creepy.  One of Beyonce Knowles’ fans was in tears recently when the singer refused to sign a painting that took artist Paul Stillwell 80 hours to paint.  Talk about creepy…

Stillwell revealed that the painting of Beyonce took over 3 days to paint & Knowles wouldn’t even give him “two seconds of her time to sign her name on it.â€�

“I traveled 100 miles to London and waited outside her hotel for five hours. … When she came out I showed her my painting and said, ‘Beyonce, will you sign my painting?’ She said, ‘No, sorry,’ and walked away.”

I mean seriously, dude.  Beyonce didn’t ask you to paint a painting of her, travel to London & wait outside her hotel room for five hours, now did she?  I mean, get a clue!  Especially since the painting makes Beyonce’s abs look like melted butter, and not in a good way mind you.

You tell me, who’s side do you fal on?

On Monday hottiepants Beyonce Knowles got up a little early & headed on down to CBS to perform live for The Early Show.  The performance was just like any other, just throw in another bad dress & you get the idea.

Beyonce is promoting her new album, B’Day The Deluxe Edition.  I’m not sure why the singer/actress couldn’t get another music album together instead of trying to tap into more cash on her B’Day record.  But I guess the girl has to buy a wardrobe of zebra dresses somehow….

You tell me- what do you think of Beyonce’s CBS look?

All I have to say is that Jay-Z is one luck man & must have been a very good boy to deserve longtime girlfriend Beyonce Knowles’ look on Valentine’s Day Wednesday.

Knowles was spotted at the unveiling of the 2007 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue at the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles.  Beyonce graces the front cover of the sexy & much awaited swimsuit issue where she proudly sports a bikini her mother Tina Knowles designed.

It looks like it’s a happy Valentine’s Day for more people now than before, as Beyonce Knowles has stolen the cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue.  I had thought that the ever popular issue usually tried to use models that were lesser known to boost their careers, but it looks like Illustrated went with a new philosophy this year.  And that philosophy is Beyonce hottness!

What do you think of the cover?
