Beyonce Knowles

Beyonce Knowles
Beyoncé Giselle Knowles (Houston, Texas, 4 septembre 1981) est une chanteuse de R&B et soul, compositrice, productrice et actrice américaine.

Sa famille a des origines françaises : son père, Matthew, est son manager. Sa mère, Tina, est sa styliste. Une petite s½ur, Solange, est aussi chanteuse.

Beyoncé commence à danser et à chanter à l'âge de quatre ans. À huit ans elle rencontre, LaTavia Roberson au cours d'un casting. Les deux fillettes forment un groupe, baptisé Girl Tymes. Kelly Rowland et LeToya Luckett les rejoignent en 1992 pour former les Destiny's Child. En 1997, elles signent chez Combia Records. Leur premier morceau, Kiling Time, figure sur la bande originale du film Men in Black. Les singles No no no, With me, Get on the bus, Bills bills bills, Bug a boo, Say my name et Jumpin Jumpin s'enchainent, et le groupe vend au total plus de 80 millions de disques dans le monde. En 2000, LeToya et LaTavia quittent le groupe et sont remplacées par Farrah Franklin et Michelle Williams. Farrah ne restera que 5 mois ; devenu un trio, Destiny's Child continue son succès avec l'album Survivor.

Vedette du groupe, Beyoncé chante et co-compose les chansons. En 2002, elle gagne le titre de « Pop Songwriter of the Year » (meilleur auteur pop de l'année) de l'ASCAP (groupement des compositeurs, auteurs et diffuseurs américains) ; elle est la première femme noire à le remporter, et la deuxième femme.

En 2003, Beyoncé entame sa carrière en solo avec l'album intitulé Dangerously in Love ; l'album remporte un record de 5 Grammy Awards. Elle entame sa carrière au cinéma avec des rôles importants dans Austin Powers dans Goldmember et dans The Fighting Temptations, tous deux en 2002.

En 2006, elle sort sa propre ligne de vêtements sous le nom de House of Déreon. Elle est aussi une figure emblématique de L'Oréal et de Pepsi et Tommy Hilfiger avec les parfums "True Star".

En janvier 2006, elle commence à travailler sur le film Dreamgirls, alors que sort The Pink Panther (la panthère rose) où elle figure au casting. Elle interprète le "Check on it", présent sur le best of titré #1's de Destiny's Child.

Puis pendant les vacances d'été 2006, Beyoncé enregistre secretement un album en seulement 3 semaines, alors qu'elle s'était promis un break. Le film Dreamgirls, l'a, selon ses dires, beaucoup inspirée pour cet album, qui s'intitule "B-Day". Ce titre n'est pas donné au hasard ; en effet il est sorti le jour meme de son anniversaire, le 4 Septembre...

Le jour de sa sortie, l'album entre en No 1 dans les palmarès de ventes et s'écoule à plus de 530 000 copies aux États-Unis en une semaine seulement.

I look and stare so deep in your eyes
I touch on you more and more every time
When you leave i'm beggin you not to go
Call your name two, three times in a row
Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
How i'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
Yeah, cause i know i don't understand
Just how your love can do what no on else can

Got me lookin so crazy right now
Your love's got me lookin so crazy right now
(your love)
Got me lookin so crazy right now your touch's
Got me lookin so crazy right now
(your touch)
Got me hoping you page me right now your kiss's
Got me hoping you save me right now
Lookin so crazy your love's got me lookin
Got me lookin so crazy your love

When i talk to my friends so quietly
"who he think he is?" look at what you've done to me
Tennis shoes don't even need to buy a new dress
You ain't there, ain't nobody else to impress
It's the way that you know what i thought i knew
It's the beat that my heart skips when i'm with you
Yeah, but i still don't understand
Just how your love can do what no one else can

Got me lookin so crazy right now
Your love's got me lookin so crazy right now
(your love)
Got me lookin so crazy right now your touch's
Got me lookin so crazy right now
(your touch)
Got me hoping you page me right now your kiss's
Got me hoping you save me right now
Lookin so crazy your love's got me lookin
Got me lookin so crazy your love

I'm warmed up now
Let's go

Young hova
Ya'll know when the flow is loco
Young b and the r-o-c uh oh
O-G, big homie
The one and only
Stick boney but the pockets are fat like tony

Soprano the roc handle
Like van Exel
I shake phonies man, you can't get next to
A genuine article, i do not sing tho
I sling though , if anything i bling yo

Star like ringo
War like a green berret
You're crazy bring your whole set
Jay-z in the range
Crazy and deranged
They can't figure him out
They're like ãhey is he insane?ä

Yes sir i'm cut from a different cloth
My texture is the best fur, im chinchilla

I've been ill of the chain smokers
How you think i go the name hova
I've been reala'
The game's over

Fall back young ever since
I made you change over to platinum
The game's been a wrap
One

Got me looking so crazy, my baby
I'm not myself lately
I'm foolish, i don't do this
I've been playing myself
Baby i don't care
Cuz your love got the best of me
And baby you're making a fool of me
You got me sprung and i don't care who sees
Cuz baby you got me so crazy

Got me lookin so crazy right now
Your love's got me lookin so crazy right now
(your love)
Got me lookin so crazy right now your touch's
Got me lookin so crazy right now
(your touch)
Got me hoping you page me right now your kiss's
Got me hoping you save me right now
Lookin so crazy your love's got me lookin
Got me lookin so crazy your love
