Beyonce is Poor

Beyonce insists she looked like a "cotton bud" in "Dreamgirls."

The curvaceous singer-and-actress went on a liquid-only diet to slim down for her role as Motown singer Deena Jones in the movie, but admits she didn't like her smaller physique.

She told Britain's Elle magazine, "I didn't recognize myself during filming because I looked like a cotton bud and that wasn't a nice feeling. I look better with a few pounds on my bones."

In other news, Beyoncé Knowles has reportedly forced her backing dancers to pay for their
own flights to attend rehearsals.
The 'Dreamgirls' star, who is promoting her latest album 'B-Day', expects
her backing dancers to play for their own flights from New York to Los
Angeles to rehearse for her upcoming tour and latest music videos, according
to Page Six.
A source said: "They had to pay for their own flight and work for a measly
$400 per video."
The dancers were reportedly too scared to complain as they were faced with
the threat of not being hired at all if they didn't comply.
The source added: "They were told that they couldn't call their agents and
that if they didn't agree, they would not be hired."
Representatives for Beyoncé have so far refused to comment.
