Check out this pic of Beyonce in New Jersey on the set of her new movie ‘Cadillac Records’. The ‘Deja Vu’ singer is starring as Etta James in the film, hence the dodgy wig.
I think that since Etta James is coaching Beyonce herself that Beyonce is the perfect choice to portray Etta in the movie. Beyonce has proved she can act with Dreamgirls & especially The Fighting Temptations. Can’t wait for this new movie.
i hope she does a good job..i really like beyonce…but y didn’t she beef up for this roll….ive seen old videos of E.James and she was a plus size momma..
“I’m sorry but the bitch can’t act leave it for michelle williams she was amazing in the color purple!!!”
I agree with you, Beyonce cannot act. I am not hating I am just stating facts. Sing, yes, dance, yes, pretend to be virtuous, yes. ACT………..NO!!!
dont say i am hating because i’m not. And by the way, why didn’t see gain weight for this roll, didn’t she say she would have gained weight to play Effie if she got that roll?
I KNOW YA’LL ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE ME BUT I KNOW SOMEONE WHO WORKED ON THE SET OF DREAMGIRLS .BEYONCE WAS SET UP ON DREAMGIRLS THEY TOLD HER SHE WAS GOING TO BE THE STAR OF DREAMGIRLS BUT THEY CUT ALL OF HER GOOD SCENES AND THEN THEY SHOWED THE MOVIE TO ALL THE CAST MEMEBERS AND BEYONCE HAD A CONCERT TO DO AND THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO WAIT TO SHOW THE MOVIE AND THEY SHOWED IT WITHOUT HER ANYWAY AND THEN SHE CAME THE NEXT DAY AND HAD TO WATCH THE MOVIE BY HERSELF . THEY NEVER TOLD HER THEY CUT MOST HER HER PARTS , SHE WAS CRYING AND UPSET AND MATTHEW HAD TO COME AND CURSE THE DIRECTOR OUT .IT WAS REALLY REALLY BAD . EVERYBODY ON THE SET WAS OVER IT AND THE DIRECTOR TOLD MATTHEW IT WAS HIS MOVIE .SO THAT’S WHY BEYONCE IS THE CO PRODUCER OF THIS MOVIE SO SHE DOESN’T GET SCREW AGAIN.PLUS ETTA IS COACHING HER SO IT WILL BE A GREAT MOVIE .THIS MOVIE WILL BE HER BREAKOUT PERFORMANCE TRUST ME .

could have played an 0lder Etta James. I played her in Black Ensmeble Theatre in Chicago. No star power or name alas!
