Beyonce Launches New Fragrance in New York

Beyoncé Knowles coming off a record six Grammy Award winning night on Sunday in Los Angeles flew to New York soon after to introduce the world to her new fragrance. On Wednesday Beyonce was at Macy's herald Square where some 500 customers purchased a bottle of the new fragrance for $122.

Macy's President Terry Lundgren told WWD,

“You can tell the potential of a celebrity fragrance brand in its first few days in store, this is off-the-chart.”

Knowles told WWD,

“I am so happy to be living in this moment,” an exuberant Knowles, clad in a short, fitted red Marc Bouwer dress and Lorraine Schwartz rubies and diamonds, told WWD. Reflecting on Sunday’s Grammys, where she picked up six trophies — making her the most decorated female singer at a single Grammys in the awards’ history — she said, “I was so overwhelmed when I won the sixth Grammy, I didn’t know what to do except run off the stage and cry, so that’s what I did,” she said with a laugh.

The new fragrance is called "Beyonce Heat."

Beyonce Knowles Speaks Out About The Kayne West/Taylor Swift Incident

Beyonce Knowles finally had something to say about the Kayne West/Taylor Swift incident at this year's VMA Awards.

Knowles opened up to O: The Oprah Magazine as reported by People saying,

"Well, I knew his intentions, and I knew he was standing up for art; and he told me before, when they said the nominees, he's like, 'You have this award,'"

"When they didn't call my name he was, like, completely shocked," Knowles, 28, added. "And when he walked on the stage, I was like, 'No, no, no!' and then he spoke, and I was like, 'Oh, no, no, no!' "

So what this really tells us is that Kayne West planned on being a douche long before the incident took place.

Beyonce Knowles Sued By Abercrombie & Fitch

Forget Beyonce Knowles being roped into the Taylor Swift/Kanye West controversy from Sunday night's VMA Awards -- now it seems she has a bigger problem on her hands.

Abercrombie & Fitch Co. is suing the singer claiming her new fragrance Sasha Fierce violate's A&F's trademark.

As reported on The Insider,

The chain, which has sold a men's fragrance called Fierce since 2002, wants a court to order Knowles to abandon the plan. Abercrombie has held a trademark for the word "fierce" since 2003, according to the lawsuit it filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Columbus.

So just drop the Fierce. Although just, "Sasha" doesn't really have the same appeal.

Kanye West Causes a Debauchery of Douchebaggery at the VMA's

Kanye West is a douche plain and simple. What he did last night increased his douchebaggyness even more. During the MTV Video Music Awards Taylor Swift won for Best Female Video, during her acceptance speech Kanye got up on stage stole the microphone from Swift and said,

"I'm really happy for you, I'll let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time."

The country singer told E! News of the incident after her short acceptance speech,

"I was standing onstage and I was really excited because I had just won an award and then I was really excited because Kanye West was on the stage," Taylor told E! News in the press room. "And then, um, I wasn't so excited anymore after that."

This controversy pretty much stole all the publicity knocking all talk of the Michael Jackson tribute off the next day news cycle.

Thanks Kanye. Taylor should have punched him.

Kanye eventually "started" the apology process on his blog writing,

"I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID," Kanye began his post. "SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS! ....................... I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT! ................""BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW," the hip-hop artist continued. "WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!! EVERYBODY WANNA BOOOOO ME BUT I'M A FAN OF REAL POP CULTURE!!! NO DISRESPECT BUT WE WATCHIN' THE SHOW AT THE CRIB RIGHT NOW CAUSE ... WELL YOU KNOW!!!! I'M STILL HAPPY FOR TAYLOR!!!! BOOOYAAAWWWW!!!!"

"YOU ARE VERY VERY TALENTED!!! I GAVE MY AWARDS TO OUTKAST WHEN THEY DESERVED IT OVER ME ... THAT'S WHAT IT IS!!!!!!! I'M NOT CRAZY YALL, I'M JUST REAL. SORRY FOR THAT!!! I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I'M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!,"

Etta James Let's Beyonce Know How She Really Feels

Etta James has some beef with Beyonce about her performance at the Inaugural Ball for President Barack Obama saying that she "can't stand Beyonce."

This comes after Beyonce sang a rendition of "At Last," a song made famous by James.

So to say the least it seems as though Etta didn't enjoy Beyonce's version of her song.

According to E! News,

"You know your president, the one with the big ears? He ain't my president—had that woman singing for him at his inauguration. She's going to get her ass whooped...she had no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' president day, gonna be singing my song that I've been singing forever."

Those are quite the words for Beyonce and President Obama... we hope they can resolve this like the financial crisis. Soon!

Beyonce played James in the recent film Cadillac Records.
