Empty Set Chair: Obama Backer Beyoncé Bows Out of Eastwood Film

Beyoncé is one of the biggest stars in the country, a beautiful singer at the top of her profession.
She isn't an A-list movie star... yet.
Her work in the celebrated "Dreamgirls" didn't make that happen, nor did appearances in "The Pink Panther," "Obsessed" or "Austin Powers in Goldmember."
Clint Eastwood could have changed all that. The actor/director wanted Beyoncé to star in his planned remake of "A Star Is Born." Any Eastwood project is instantly Oscar bait, and his track record suggests he could have transformed the stunning chanteuse into an A-lister with just one film.
Now, we'll never know.
Beyoncé has backed out of the Eastwood production, citing the proverbial scheduling issues. It's certainly possible, but what star wouldn't clear his or her schedule to secure such a plum role?

I think Jennifer Hudson was the best suggestion. She is HAWT and she can sing.

Elvis Presley was offered Kris Krisstofferson’s part but the Colonel Parker intervened. He demanded Elvis get top billing. That sunk the deal. Probably would have been good in it. elvis was also offered Glen Campbell’s role in “True Grit”. Same demands for top billing over John Wayne. Same result. Anyway, Clint probably offered Beyonce the role to see if she would take the bait and work for a conservative. Decisions are made and lived with. She can remain a B-list personality.

That doesnt even remotely look like whats posted in #63. Many women don't look the same w/o makeup...as dead said makeup earns it's keep.

That doesnt even remotely look like whats posted in #63.For good reason. The 'no makeup' picture is of a different woman: Kim Kardashian.

That picture came up when I googled Beyonce without makeup.
Sometimes, it's like you can't even trust the internet!

Yes, I’m sure she is an Obama supporter as well since they are both black and that trumps everything. You would HOPE that the desire to be in a great movie would top one’s slavish allegiance to THE ONE.

She has a vibrato like a goat bleating through a box fan. Her acting is about on par with that. FUB.

Don’t care for Christina’s “style” of music, and can’t stand her attitude of herself. But there is no doubt the girl has some pipes.

Forget Jennifer Hudson. This kid from Chicago, who came from a drug-selling family on the South Side of Chicago, whose mother and minor age brother were killed in a rage by the drug thug husband of Jennifer's sister. Oboma just recently thanked Hudson for her continous, professional contributions to his fundraisers by appearing at same...she's another oboma kiss-azz follower/contributor.
Clint should consider someone else for the part, and if he's shooting for a woman of color to fill the role, why not Miss Dash, the young black actress who spoke out FOR Mitt Romney?

Taylor Swift might be a star, but as far as singing not OVERLY talented.

Stacy Dash for president smart and sexy a winning combination Mmmm...no. Much as I revere Ms. Dash, that doesn't harmonize.
Yet.
But can you imagine her as Press Secretary? I can. Big time.
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, how are you this fine morning?"
Just heavenly, Ms. Dash...absolutely heavenly.

I don't know who that is but it ain't Beyonce.
The pic's properties have the file named as "kim-k-no-makeup.jpg" but it doesn't look like Kim Kardashian either. Close, so it might be Kim.

She has no class. She was more than happy to sing At Last at Obamas inauguration. A person with class would have stepped aside and let Etta James sing it. Etta is a republican and was offended that Beyonce sang her song. She very vocal about it.
