Beyoncé Knowles
January 27, 2008
I wanted to write a post about Beyoncé Knowles because I admire her. With her energy and great personality she’s one of my favorite stars. She’s hip on so many ways. Her clothing music and perfume are always the latest fashion. So here is all the info I found on Beyoncé.
She is a famous R and B singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and fashion designer. Beyoncé gathered stardom as one of the original members of R and B group Destiny’s Child. She’s famous rap artist Jay-Z girlfriend for 5 years. Hollywood, the fans and media are guising when they’ll tie the knot.
After a series of very successful albums with the group, she released her first solo album in 2003, Dangerously in Love. Dangerously in Love with the the extreme successful song “Crazy in Love” topped both the R and B and Billboard 200 charts in the United States. And all the album charts in Canada and the United Kingdom.
Beyoncé has won 9 Grammy Awards six for her solo career. And the other three as a member of Destiny’s Child. She also has a successful film career and was starring in Austin Powers in Goldmember, one of the highest scoring films of the year 2002.
Beyoncé released her 2nd solo album B’Day, on September 4th 2006 around the world. And in the United States on September 5th 2006. This to combine with the celebration of her 25th birthday party.
Beyoncé’s Clothing line House of Deréon.
House of Deréon is named after Beyoncé’s grandmother, Agnes Dereon She was a Creole seamstress. The media describes the clothing line as Haute Couture. Kick and Soul, Agnes being the soul. Beyoncé is the kick. And Tina Knowles (Beyoncé’s Mother) is the Haute Couture.
In all the advertisement there is a picture of her grandmother. The clothing line was announced to be first released on the Destiny’s Child world tour of the year 2005. (Destiny Fulfilled And Lovin’ It tour) and the members worn the clothing through out the whole tour.
Although Beyoncé had talked about how She had a few ideas of releasing a clothing line for women and Young girls. The announcement came publicly until 2 years after the idea came out to the people.
House of Deréon premiered on The Oprah Winfrey Show in November of the year 2005. Destiny’s Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams were also models in the runway show.
Beyoncé also worked together with Tommy Hilfiger to create Her own 2 fragrances. True Star in the year 2004, and True Star Gold in the year 2005.
