Question of the Day

Solange Beyonce

According to the homies over at Rap-Up.com Beyaki will embark on a 110-date world tour that will begin in April 2009 and trek through the U.S, [with a week long stint in Vega, good grief], Canada, Europe, Mexico, South America, Japan, Africa, and Australia.

After watching Beyonce rock out with her cock out for a couple of hours fans will then be able to enjoy Solange perform at a more “intimate location” [read: dent in the wall] at the official after-party.

If you were Papa Knowles what would you name this tour? Check out photos of Solange in Madrid promoting the re-release of SoL-Angel and the Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. Nightmares in the gallery.

And Now Some Gentle, Quiet On Screen Raw Emotion

Wilson from BlackFilm.com just sent over these flicks Beyaki as Etta James in Cadillac Records. Since I am not going to let my lunch get cold [food over bitches, always] I’m just going to hit publish and walk away.

Your Two Cents Required

ABC News is reporting that Bust It Creole has received the green light [uh huh huh huh, green means go!] to play legendary sex pot Eartha Kitt in a biopic of the singer’s life.

Here’s what my friend in the head Clay Cane had to say about things:

Etta James and now Eartha Kitt are roles that could make a career for an up and coming actress. Also, isn’t it a rule that once an actor plays a real life character in a movie they should be avoiding additional biopics? That would be like Jamie Foxx playing Sammy Davis, Jr. Beyonce has already portrayed Diana Ross (I don’t care what ya say, Deena Jones is Diana), Etta James, and now Eartha Kitt. What’s next — Harriet Tubman?

Yes, Beyonce is a great performer, but an actress she is not. Eartha Kitt was a child conceived by rape, born on a cotton plantation in South Carolina, and rose to fame the old fashion way, hard work—while suffering awful sexism and racism. Her career was practically ruined for being an outspoken advocate of the Vietnam War and she allegedly made the First Lady at a White House luncheon in 1968 burst into tears. Nothing about Eartha’s life story will Beyonce be able to pull off. Bey doesn’t even know how to drop her George W. Bush Texan accent—how is she going to manage Eartha’s South Carolina/pseudo-European accent?

I’m counting down the seconds until Papa Knowles shows up in Clay’s comment section raising hell and high water. Do you think Beyonce has what it takes to portray Eartha Kitt?

Promo Trail: Beyonce At TRL

Beyonce Beyonce

Beyonce made an appearance at TRL yesterday to drop off her lastest visual opuses [insert side-eye and mouth here] for the children. You can catch her Yakiness  performing on the final episode of TRL on November 16 at 8PM. Hit up the gallery to view more flicks of Mrs. Carter.

Style Jury

Michelle Williams Michelle Williams

The DC3 trinity is finally complete with this post! The soul of Anges Dereon will finally be able to rest after this.

Now put a ring on it.

I see you over there crossing your fingers for a nip slip from Michelle Williams! You know damn well she is a good, clean woman who gave her life to Christ many years ago at a young age. Don’t try her like that please. Michelle broke the dawn [I still can't] at Diesel’s Rock + Roll Circus [I don't like jokes] event in this black number. What’s your verdict?

Skeet or Delete: Beyaki’s Rings And Things

In an attempt to keep the natural order of the wig crypt in order [1] I interrupt our regularly scheduled programming and present you the video for “Single Ladies [Put A Ring On It].” Baby Daniel has his shank waiting for the mayhem to ensue at any moment.

Let me be the first to say that I can’t wait for hundreds of tangy men to re-create this video and post their versions on YouTube!

[1] Kizzy should be used to Mrs. Carter upstaging her ass by now, that’s not my problem.

Quick Flicks: Kelly + Serena

Kelly + Serena

The wig crypt version of Oprah and Gayle hit Miami Beach over the weekend to enjoy a day of relaxation in the sun. Working those long hours standing in front of factory machines [Kelly] and bench pressing the nearest available yt in the weight room [Serena] can really take a toll on a girl.

On Set With Solange

Solange

John Gotty from The Smoking Section was kind enough to pass these pictures from the video set of Solange’s new video along to moi to share with Crunkland. Be a good neighbor and click that link, eh?

This video is going to be a découpage of glowsticks and all types of different, “cutting edge” shit. I can just feel it in my soul. Pictures of Beyonce, Pound Puppy a/k/a  Teyana Taylor, and Cee-Lo under the cut.
