Beyonce on ‘A Star is Born’: ‘Biggest Opportunity of My Life’

Published: Thursday 21st Jul 2011 by Rashad

Though still in promotion for her 4th #1 album ‘4’, Beyonce also made headlines with last month’s announcement of  her starring role in the Clint Eastwood-directed ‘A Star is Born’.  Production is not set to start until the end of the year, but the burgeoning pop icon speaks regularly on the film, calling it the ‘biggest opportunity’ of her life.

In a recent Reuters report the singer sheds more light on the upcoming project.  See what else Mrs. Knowles Carter had to say about this and more after the jump:

Via Reuters:

On ‘A Star is Born’:

“It’s when I became a fan of Barbra Streisand’s. And I then saw Judy Garland’s version of ‘A Star Is Born’ and I realized every 20 to 30 years a new star is born and a new talent represents that generation and era — so I didn’t think that I would ever get the opportunity to be the star,” she said.

“I met with Clint and I was so nervous and I know that it is the biggest opportunity of my life. I will work as hard as I can,” she said. “Because I can’t wait. And I am so happy that he trusts me and I am in good hands and I am so fortunate.”

On ‘4’:

“This album was a labor of love. It was not about singles,” she said. “I felt like the emotion and live instruments and just soul (were) missing out of the music industry, especially the popular music that’s out. I wanted to bring it back to the music I grew up listening to. It’s like a mixture of the ’90s and the ’70s and rock-n-roll.”

On balancing acting with music:

“Having to balance the two is really hard and really making sure that I’m still doing my job, which is to be the performer and the entertainer and not have to do everyone else’s job so that mine doesn’t suffer, that’s been a challenge,” she said.

On taking charge of her career:

“It just feels like no one else can tell me how I am supposed to perform, and I think it’s what separates the Michaels and the Madonnas from the artists that are great but are just not quite the Michaels and the Madonnas,” Beyonce said.

On herself in 30 years:

“I am sure at 60 I will not doing the Oh-Oh-Oh dance, that will not be cute,” she laughed, referring to the ‘Crazy In Love’ dance. “I think my priority will be my children and hopefully my grandchildren by then — and my record label or production company or whatever else.”

Eastwood’s ‘A Star is Born’ will mark the film’s 4th remake, coincidentally tying in with other ‘4’ themed occurrences in the singer’s life.  Read more of the extensive report here.

  2. KINGB SLAYS! July 21, 2011

    That’s right Beyonce! The album wasn’t for hits..just REAL MUSIC that the idustry has been lacking these days…generic pop artists like Rihanna, Kesha, Katy Perry & LMFAO have ruined it!

    Girl….you got a BOOK full of big opportunities….

    YES MA’AM. Keep slaying them Beyoncé! I’m ready for it boo!

    “I feel like some artists focus on their image or their hairstyle or their clothes or how they’re gonna present themselves, I focus more on how my voice is gonna change and how my music is gonna evolve and I feel that is a lot more important for me.” – KING B.

    ‘4’ is a mega flop!

  6. Allen July 21, 2011

    Beyoncé is taking over. She gave the young artists a chance to shine for a year and now she is back. Thanks for keeping her throne warm.

    What happened to the good old days of R&B? the 2000s decade was full of REAL MUSIC..but now artists like Rihanna, Katy Perry & Kesha only look for more number ones..NOT REAL ARTISTS to me! Their music sounds the same, while Beyonce wanted to create her own sound & bring R&B back to radios!

  9. Allen July 21, 2011

    @NANA APPLEHEAD How is it a flop? It’s selling better than any other pop artist with the exception of Lady Gaga and Adele. GTFOH.

  10. MadonnaLover July 21, 2011

    YAS beyonce.
    You know who’s the queen. so everyone you can now believe it, (madonna, queen of pop because “queen beysus” said it from her very mouth. (and for the pressed people, implied it :D)
    Momma pop gets so much love. I need a hankie.

  11. KINGB SLAYS! July 21, 2011

    @Nana Applehead (Nana Yaw)

    LOL and do u have evidence to back that up? ‘4’ has so far sold 498k and its only its third week out.. That’s more than what Rihanna & Britney’s recent albums sold in their third week.

    Plus ‘4’ has already sold 908k WW. Close to a million..NO FLOP HERE! now get lost & go have a cry bcause KING B isn’t going anywhere!

  12. TALENT + SOUL = KING BEY & QUEEN ADELE July 21, 2011

    I STILL CAN’T GET OVER THE FACT THAT SHE IS GOING BE STARRING IN A FILM DIRECTED BY ONE OF THE MOST ACCLAIMED ACTORS AND RESPECTED DIRECTORS OF ALL TIME!!!!!!

    I KNOW SHE IS GONNA KILL IT ANYWAY…….I AM A TRUE FAN#

    I HOPE SHE ALSO BECOMES THE SECOND AFRICAN AMERICAN FEMALE TO WIN AN OSCAR FOR BEST ACTRESS – THAT WOULD BE THE NEWS OF THE NEW DECADE!!!!!!!

    #I *SERIOUSLY* CAN’T WAIT#

  13. KINGB SLAYS! July 21, 2011

    @KAT DELUNA FAN

    Beyonce is slowly becoming the biggest Singer turned Actresses EVER & one of the most successful. She has had opportunities in film that other Born Actresses can only dream of…

    That cannot be denied.

    Shes actually a very DECENT Actress Overall, Plus She has the looks, the drive, & most importantly the Star Power.

  23. vicious vixen July 21, 2011

    Attack me all you want but I hope she gets an excellent acting & diction coach for this movie (or Clint’s able to REALLY help guide & direct her) because although she’s a great performer… Her acting is subpar at best… I know I won’t really be checking for this remake.

  24. Ur in a field full of bees so dont be surprise wen ur ass get stung (queenbey) July 21, 2011

    I cant wait!!!!!
    I kno QUEENBEY is goin to put her mind, body and soul into that role, but sadly it still wouldnt be enough bcuz ppl LOVE to complain!!

  25. KINGB SLAYS! July 21, 2011

    @KAT DELUNA FAN

    Exactly…I’m guessing Matthew was the one who wanted Beyonce to have hits but now his gone, Beyonce’s in control and she don’t care about hits! I love this chick! she’s so real!!!!!

  26. KINGB BISH July 21, 2011

    LOVE YOU QUEEN BEY R SHOULD I SAY KINGBEY EITHER ONE YOU STILL R THE BEST NO DOUBT!!!!;-)

    but obsessed doesnt belong in the same category with AUSTIN POWERS, DREAM GIRLS, ETTA JAMES… These are all HUGE HONORS!!

    & A Star is Born is just gonna add to her legacy.

    There will come a time when Beyonce is no longer UNDERRATED, I just hope PPL get it BEFORE its too late. The Entertainment Industry would be NOTHING without Bey.

I wanted to bring it back to the music I grew up listening to. It’s like a mixture of the ’90s and the ’70s and rock-n-roll.”

    And that’s why I love the album….among other reasons.

    “It just feels like no one else can tell me how I am supposed to perform, and I think it’s what separates the Michaels and the Madonnas from the artists that are great but are just not quite the Michaels and the Madonnas,” Beyonce said.

    SO, SO, True….tell the people.

    “I feel like some artists focus on their image or their hairstyle or their clothes or how they’re gonna present themselves, I focus more on how my voice is gonna change and how my music is gonna evolve and I feel that is a lot more important for me.”

    Wow, um wow. I will say this though, image is an important of entertainment and Bey is no exception to that. I don’t know if she should have went there.

  35. 100% Real July 21, 2011

    Damn, Beyonce has some big shoes to fill there. We’re talking Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand. Those two women are legends! Even though she will be taking on this movie role, people are automatically going to compare her performance to both Judy and Barbra. She better get some serious acting lessons and play the hell out of that role, or else Hollywood will never let her live it down if her performance is subpar.

  36. vicious vixen July 21, 2011

    @S***…

    H**? Really? She’s nowhere on Whoopi, Nia’s, Saanaa’s, or 85% of the other black actresses level. B**** you’re acting like that fight scene was on Glen Close’s level in Fatal Attraction or something. Tell u what Babes… Push the button & get the nurse to come in your room and hook you up with your anti-psychotic meds. Your crazy is showing h**!

    Well, Clint Eastwood is a very respected man in his craft, let’s just hope that his judgment isn’t wrong in this one.

    @ Curtwill:

    She’s been saying certain things lately that I personally wish she wouldn’t.

  40. Gilberto July 21, 2011

    When your favorite was a supporting role in B movie about ships. Clint Eastwood has begged Beyoncé to be the main role of his next film. I can’t.

  41. SWEETY NATALIE July 21, 2011

    Look forward to the movie. Sounds like it going to be amazing.

    @TB

    Hiya. How are you? I heard there’s a heatwave where you are.

  42. Ur in a field full of bees so dont be surprise wen ur ass get stung (queenbey) July 21, 2011

    @KINGB- Alot of pol were complaing about her interviews being boring.
    Im glad she’s opening up and saying wats on her mind! I kno it can give ppl the wrong impression, but they will have the wrong impression anyway.

  43. Ur in a field full of bees so dont be surprise wen ur ass get stung (queenbey) July 21, 2011

  44. King B July 21, 2011

    @ Icon:

    Oh yeah, and it’s still about to get worse.

    @ QueenBey l:

    At least when people would attack her for “lacking personality”, it would be a pretty pointless thing to complain about. But now she’s saying stuff that could understandably be construed as cocky, and to me that’s a whole lot worse than having no personality in interviews.

  45. SWEETY NATALIE July 21, 2011

    @QueenBey

    I’m good. 🙂 Because of this s***** site. It kept on keeping my comments for moderation. How are you?

  48. kimberly July 21, 2011

    I agree with the comment above. Sasha is now doing interviews. Have you guys read the recent magazine well there is no doubt that beyonce earn the right to take the lead and I love it. Beyonce has matured in the eyes of the music industry and that make her more respectful. I love that she focuses on her voice and sound and not the materials. I just love this woman, and people wonder why she is so successful, and have longevity.
    Got news for yall generic pop music nowadays tagged with no talent is a fail. These young artist have destroyed the music industry and it is a fact/. My mother can no longer listen to the music off the radio. Everything sounds the same, and senseless, same ole same ole. and next year the same music. Oh well, I just hope billboard changes their criteria by then.

    Beyonce receives everything that is great and what other artist and actresses could dream of and it is through the favor of god. Her personality her character, work ethic, just her drive, and that is what clintwood saw after cadilac records. These other artist can win all the vma,and billboards, and other awards but the honors Beyonce has received and will receive as an african american is unachievable of this generation. #FACT

    Bey has had opportunities in film that other BLACK Actresses could only dream of…

    You know, There will come a time when Beyonce is no longer as UNDERRATED as she is today, I just hope PPL get it BEFORE its too late. The Entertainment Industry would be NOTHING without her.

  50. Ur in a field full of bees so dont be surprise wen ur ass get stung (queenbey) July 21, 2011

    @KINGB- I hear but ppl were always turning her positive comments into negatiive comments anyways. No matter what she say some ppl are goin to say she’s being cocky.

    Ex. QUEENBEY could say ‘good morning’ and ppl would say ‘that b**** trying to be funny, whats so good about this morning’

    And u kno its true…….

    If I were an artist right now. I would try to follow in Beyonce’s footsteps and ask for good advice so I can grow and become a better artist. I would rip her off. No wonder every artist /everyone including fans are inspired by her. Take note,This has never been done before.
    One female. Queen Beyonce Carter Knowles
    4 #1 albums; 8 #1 movies; successful entrepreneur ( stores, # 1 perfumes, co producer, co director, songwriter) ; awards including the most honored in history.

    Can someone mention one female or male who has had all of this in less than a decade and is less than thirty years old, or is capable of ….waiting for a response. crickets

  54. KAT DELUNA FAN July 21, 2011

    @UR IN A FIELD
    U SO RIGHT, BEYONCE JUST REALISED THAT DESPITE THE AWARDS AND BROKEN RECORDS SHE STILL PUTTED ALONG THE IT GIRLS CONSTANTLY

    SHE HAD TO SEPERATE HERSELF FOR THE SINGLE ARTISTS & HIT CHART SEEKING GIRLS

    COCKY OR NOT,MATTHEW OR NOT I AM GLAD SHE IS SAYING AND LETTING THEN KNOW:
    “””I AM WAY TO HIGH FOR THOSE GIRLS TO LOOK AT””

  55. RihannaNAVY July 21, 2011

    I agree
    It’s a HUGE opportunity.
    Clint Eastwood always make the greatest movies and he always gets plenty Oscar love: Unforgiven, Million Dollar Baby, Mystic River, Letter to Iwo Jima, Grand Torino….

    Just to name a few classics

    Plus the 2 previous versions of that movie had already shut that the Oscar and turned their lead actresses into huge move stars.

    Beyonce will go down in history. Oh well I forget she is already in the history books, sorry guys. When you children open that history book about the great icons and legends and great music and how they loved music and evolved as distinct artist, Beyonce’s face is right in their faces. There will be no oh nana or rude boy s***.
    Beyonce came into music with an objective and she worked towards it and all is being on fold. if you are a true beyonce fan and you followed her interviews you would get that one. She did it yall. She did it again. Whilst the haters complaining about her “flop” album and “singles” she paving her way into legendary status. I tell yall this woman have a reason for all she is doing in her music because she has studied the greats from a little girl, and knows what it takes to make the list. Let the people hate on her. Beyonce’s name is cemented in music already.

  62. Anne July 22, 2011

    I think that working with this caliber of professionals will take her acting to a new level. This is a great opportunity for her. On the music front, BTINH is still climbing up ITunes, fans support, that should be a top ten song at least.

  63. kimberly July 22, 2011

GOD LOVES BEYONCE MORE THAN OTHERS.JK. EVERY YEAR BEYONCE DOES SOMETHING EXTRA ORDINARY. TO EVERYONE READING THIS KEEP THIS IN MIND. THIS IS WHERE GOD TAKES YOU WHEN YOU BRUSH NEGATIVITY ASIDE AND FOCUS ON THE POSITIVE. HE TAKES YOU PLACES WHERE NO ONE HAS BEEN. WHEN YOU GIVE GOD YOUR ALL, YOU BEST WORK AT ALL TIMES HE REWARDS YOU TEN TIMES AS MUCH. REMEMBER “CAIN AND ABEL?” NOW BEYONCE IS ON THE COMMITTEE, DAMN AND ACTING IS NOT EVEN HER MAIN FOCUS.

    @QueenBey & Kimberly

    I am ALWAYS sane.
    Just because I don t think much of 4 doesn’t change the fact that Bey’s movie career might be headed to a whole new level.

    I m a HUGE cinephile.
    And I can tell you that there are a few director that most people KILL to work with: James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorcese &Clint Eastwood.

    THOSE GUYS KNOW HOW TO MAKE A MOVIE & TELL A STORY.

    For Beyonce to have been noticed by somebody in that circle says a lot about her potential as an actress.

  88. kimberly July 22, 2011

    @ JULIEN. this is the new Beyonce sugar. she can say whatever she wants. Who the cap fits wear it. What substance does rihanna albums have? Where is it taking her. When people i know hear rihanna albums first thing they say.”it didn’r do well?” when you talk about real music rihanna doesn’t come to mind.

    talk about obsessed, cadalac records. pressed much? don’t hate on B because she is great. encourage your fav to follow her footsteps. The thing aBout you rihanna fans you always tell her on twitter how great she is which is not. how much of a great singer she is. you guys tell her so many lies instead of tellING her the truth. When she is not recognized or honored you get pressed. i gave this b**** 4 years of my life and then the b**** still couldn’t impress me. I had to forget about her. Mature people who love talent will never stan for rihanna. #FACT

    JULIEN THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING FOR BEYONCE AND GREATNESS STAY TUNED

    beyonce said this album wasn’t about singles yet the first single girls (run the world) was crap. look at the lyrics and tell me how is this quality music, how is this bringing back r&b and soul. and i hate that she is now talking s*** about other artist. i lost some respect for beyonce with that comment i still love you girl but make sure you comments are 100% true, and don’t talk s*** because for the 15 years she has been in the music industry she has never thrown shade, and i respected you for that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I’m looking forward to Bey in this film! It’s alot of pressure to follow in the foot step of the legends that have done this role, already!

    Bey needs to take acting lessons, and or have an acting coach, because honestly, her acting chops, need to improve!

    I have faith she will do this. She has a great work ethic, and knows, with this role, she must bring the acting! No one is worried about the singing performances for obvious reasons! Lol!

    Congrats Bey, this is the role of a lifetime!

  96. Misfit July 22, 2011

    @ all my peeps here

    Hey guys!! Work has been crazy, the last week! That’s why I haven’t been around so much! It’s like hot as hell got in NYC, for the last 4 days, and getting worse! 2morrow will be in the triple digits!! Uggh, so draining!!

    “I feel like some artists focus on their image or their hairstyle or their clothes or how they’re gonna present themselves, I focus more on how my voice is gonna change and how my music is gonna evolve and I feel that is a lot more important for me.”

    This quote is going to be analyzed, dissected and misconstrued beyond belief, but she is absolutely right. This is the same girl from “Second Nature” now doing coloratura runs, harmonizing with a guitar and precise staccati.

    And lol, it seems like Sasha Fierce is still very much alive.

    H** HUSH!!

    RTW is EPIC & it *IS* REAL MUSIC, Maybe not the LYRICS but the Beat is FAR from the Generic mess out now. The production is top notch!!

    If it was about SINGLES/HITS & SELLS with Bey then she would have released End Of Time & I Care instead of RTW & BTINH but she wanted to make a statement, This album represents her entire Career.

    4 is an EPIC MASTERPIECE.

  103. pop royalty (RUDE BOY) July 22, 2011

    BEYONCE DIDN’T DISS ANYBODY !

    IS RIHANNA THE ONLY ONE WHO CHANGE HER HAIR STYLE ?!! WHAT ABOUT NICKI MINAJ !!?

    IS RIHANNA THE ONLY ONE WHO CARES ABOUT HER IMAGE ?! WHAT ABOUT LADY GAGA !?

    YES SHE WAS HONEST , SOME PPL CARE ABOUT THEIR IMAGE A LOT MORE !

    AND WHEN YOU ARE LABELED “SINGER” YOU SHOULD FOCUS ON YOUR VOICE ! RIHANNA AND OTHERS SHOULD FOCUS ON THAT !!! ” I LOVE RIHANNA BTW , BUT SHE NEED SOME VOCAL LESSONS FOR HER LIVE PERFORMANCES ” #REAL TALK !

    she was talking like a professional singer , not dissing anybody ! she always respected her peers whatever the hell the do with their careers !!!!
    stop being blind and understand what she wanted to say !!!!!

  104. LACEFRONCE. 4CLOSURE WAS BORN TO FLOP. July 22, 2011

    It doesn’t matter what films BLEACHonce acts in, she will be a joke in all of them. Just like her last joke of a movie, Obsessed.

  106. istan4goodmusic July 22, 2011

    Adele doesn’t sing generic pop music and she is still number one. Beyonce isn’t making generic pop of the day but she’s still a flop and underneath adele. Ppl will use any excuse. Her acting sucks. If she manages to pull this role off in this movie she will gain my respect.

  107. omzir July 22, 2011

    ISTAN4GOODMUSIC

    Beyonce’s album JUST came out and if I recall Beyonce has sold more albums then Adele. Incase you are wondering Beyonce may not be your favorite singer but she’s your favorite singers singer… If you watched ADELE on ITUNES LIVE she has a part where she mentions Beyonce and how blown away she is by her…

    and i’m sure Beyonce is fine without your respect.

  108. JCT July 22, 2011

    Uuhm…. as much as I like her, she has some major shoes to fill.
    The previous films are engrained in cinematic history.
    Both were played by legends!!!!!!! Judy Garland – and the one and only, legend of legends, BARBRA STREISAND!!!!!!!!!
    Beyonce has to prove herself, because she is nowhere near the level of accomplishment of Barbra Streisand who had been a bonafide all around entertainer star with her very first film. Already at age 28 Streisand won all the major awards and is known as the “Grand Slam” of accomplishment in entertainment: Oscar, Emmy, Tony, Grammy, Golden Globe, Peabody, Cable Ace etc etc etc = All awarded to Barbra Streisand right off the bat for her work!
    Beyonce needs to seriously WORK and improve her acting skills tremendously for this to be a success. A good singer she is indeed.
    But a serious dramatic actress in the same legendary status as BARBRA STREISAND and JUDY GARLAND? i think not!
    Here’s hoping Mr. Eastwood can make this work!

  109. YOOSONDALOOSE July 22, 2011

    Looks good, hope it does her career wonders!

    She has planned this out well!

  110. nice_gurl July 22, 2011

    Her acting skills have improved a lot since she first started acting. Her acting in Cadillac Records was phenomenal. She seems more straightforward in intervies this era, but I hope she doesn’t reveal too much. It’s nice to see her more confident though.

  111. Haiku July 22, 2011

    BEYONCE is a brilliant actress it’s just that some people find it hard to see her as anything other than Beyonce the crazy in love singer.
    Beyonce can act but I dont think she gets enough credit.
    Hopefully this film will change that.

    Go Bey!

  112. JUDAS666 July 22, 2011

    #FLOP!!!!!!! WE ALL KNOW BEY CANT ACT WORTH A S***. SHE WAS ONLY ATTACHED TO THIS PIC TO SELL TICKETS CUZ HER CRAZY ASS DERANGED STANS DONT KNOW F****** BETTER. TRUTH!!!

  113. HALF AMAZIN July 22, 2011

    EVERYONE knows how thirsty Beyonce is for an Oscar. I hope she gets some serious drama coaching because her acting just isnt good, and that’s said without an ounce of shade. Entertainer does not translate to actress, period. Fans/stans/haters alike beg Beyonce for some personality in real life, so the fact that’s she’s robotic as an actress isn’t a suprise.

    Somebody said Nia Long is somewhere crying…I’m sure she is. I’m sure all of the actors and actresses are tired of singers getting legitimate parts, not for the love of the craft, but because they are trying to finesse themselves into another branding opportunity. Same thing with commercial and beauty models. But hey, no ones gonna turn down a chance or the money.

  114. Tru Voice July 22, 2011

    Good for her. A Star is Born will be Beyonce’s Big movie as The Bodyguard was to Whitney – if they do this remake right.

  115. Graham July 22, 2011

    I cant wait to see the film! WHile im waiting im gonna party @ Mansion Elan http://ow.ly/5KYZa

  116. KAT DELUNA FAN July 22, 2011

    Nia Long can stay all the way pressed.
    All she can get are some cameos in the Single Ladies,a Tv show inspired from Beyonce song oops
