<p><span id="more-11165"></span><img src="http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e68/owl4ever/Starmo2/beyonce_taylorbig.jpg" width="375"/></p>
<p>But instead of immersing herself in the biggest victory of the night, she gave the spotlight to <strong>Taylor Swift</strong>:</p>
<p>“Thank you. I remember being 17-years-old, up for my first MTV Award with Destiny’s Child and it was one of the most exciting moments in my life. So I’d like Taylor [Swift] to come out and have her moment,” she said.</p>
<p>Taylor came out and hugged <strong>Beyonce</strong>. She finally got her moment and saying, “I’d like to thank all the fans on Twitter and MySpace and everyone who came out to my shows this summer. Thank you so much!”</p>
<p>Taylor and Beyonce hugged again after Taylor’s speech.</p>
<p>Thanks to Kanye, both Taylor and Beyonce surely gained more fans after the incident. </p>

<p><span id="more-7630"></span>Video Link: <a href="http://star-tube.blogspot.com/2008/11/beyonce-single-ladies.html">Beyonce &#8211; Single Ladies</a></p>
<p>All the single ladies (7x)<br />
Now put your hands up<br />
Up in the club, just broke up<br />
I’m doing my own little thing<br />
Decided to dip but now you wanna trip<br />
Cuz another brother noticed me<br />
I’m up on him, he up on me<br />
Don’t pay him any attention<br />
Cried my tears, three good years<br />
Ya can’t be mad at me</p>
<p>[Chorus]<br />
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it<br />
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it<br />
Don’t be mad once you see that he want it<br />
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it</p>
<p>(Chorus)<br />
I put gloss on my lips, a man on my hips<br />
Hold me tighter than my Dereon jeans<br />
Acting up, drink in my cup<br />
I could care less what you think<br />
I need no permission, did I mention<br />
Don’t pay him any attention<br />
Cuz you had your turn<br />
But now you gonna learn<br />
What it really feels to miss me</p>
<p>(Chorus)</p>
<p>Don’t treat me like things of this world<br />
I’m not that kind of girl<br />
Your love is what I prefer, what I deserve<br />
He’s a man that makes me and takes me<br />
And delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond<br />
Pull me into your arms<br />
Say I’m not the one you own<br />
If you don’t, you’ll be alone<br />
And like a ghost, I’ll be gone</p>
<p>All the single ladies (7x)<br />
Now put your hands up</p>
<p><!-- adman --></p>
<p>(Chorus)</p>

<p><span id="more-7628"></span>Hollywood&#8217;s Top 10 Richest Couples:</p>

2. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith &#8211; $85 million<br />

She raked in $80 million, thanks to an entertainment empire including fashion, film and publishing deals as well as a concert tour that sold $50 million in tickets and endorsement deals.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After the US elected it&#8217;s very first black president, are they more than ready to have the first black and bootylicious Wonder Woman?</p>
<p><span id="more-7474"></span>The odds are favoring pop superstar <strong>Beyonce Knowles</strong> as she&#8217;s already in talks with DC Comics and Warner Brothers to play the role of Wonder Woman in the big screen adaptation. </p>
<p>&#8220;I want to do a superhero movie and what would be better than Wonder Woman? It would be great. And it would be a very bold choice. A black Wonder Woman would be a powerful thing. It’s time for that, right?,” Beyonce said to the LA Times.</p>
<p>“After doing these roles that were so emotional (Dreamgirls, Cadillac Records, Austin Powers) I was thinking to myself, ‘OK, I need to be a superhero.’ Although, when you think about the psychology of the heroes in the films these days, they are still a lot of work, of course, and emotional. But there’s also an action element that I would enjoy,” she added.</p>
<p>Wonder Woman was originally played by <strong>Lynda Carter</strong> on TV in the late 70s and it has never been made into a feature film. The character, created by <strong>William Marston</strong>, first appeared in All Star Comics in 1941 and continuously published by DC Comics in 1944. An animated film will be released in 2009 starring <strong>Kerri Russell</strong>. </p>
