Beyonce Knowles knows all the 権利 moves.

She can swivel her hips and sashay across a concert 行う/開催する/段階. She can do the girl trio jive with her 注目する,もくろむs の近くにd, thanks to her time with 運命's Child.

But now she's over in Hollywood, learning how to do it with a Sixties flair.

Beyonc? is starring in Dreamgirls, a film based on a Broadway musical from the 早期に Eighties about a fictitious girl trio called The Dreamettes.

I first wrote about Beyonc? 存在 in this movie last January, but it's been a long, long time on the 製図/抽選 board. However, filming starts soon, に引き続いて 広範囲にわたる rehearsals.

I must 自白する that, 支援する at the beginning of the year, I got Beyonc? in the 権利 movie, but the wrong 役割. Then, I thought she was going to play the part of Effie - but that part has gone to American Idol 走者-up Jennifer Hudson.

Beyonc? will play the part of ambitious Deena, a beautiful but ruthless singer who 押し進めるs Effie out of the group.

Anika Noni Rose, a 行う/開催する/段階 actress I've seen on

Broadway, plays the other singer in the group.

Jamie Foxx, who is terrific in Sam Mendes's 爆発性の movie Jarhead, also 星/主役にするs along with Eddie Murphy and Danny Glover.

法案 Condon has adapted the late Michael Bennett's 行う/開催する/段階 show and will direct it, 適切な for Dreamworks.

I say that not just because the movie's 肩書を与える and studio 指名する are 類似の, but also because David Geffen, a partner in Dreamworks, produced the show on Broadway and has long 手配中の,お尋ね者 to make it into a film.

I saw the show during its 初めの run in New York and it is one of the few musicals to have stayed with me.

It's a shame it never (機の)カム to London, although the 生産者 Robert Fox did try to do just that, many years ago, to no avail.
