We look at Beyonce, and think - she's a famous singer/clothes designer, she's married to a famous rapper/clothes designer/label manager, has more money than she can count, lives in a mansion and is world-famous, so what more could she want? But apparently the 29 year-old singer is at times, not very happy with her life.
Seen wearing no make-up, she speaks very openly about how lonely she gets while on tour, in her new documentary entitled 'I Am World Tour' which airs on Thursday as a special.
Beyonce, ranked as the ninth most powerful woman in the world by Forbes, turns the camera on herself, and is seen shedding tears as she ponders: 'Why did God give me this life?' About this clip she says that it was the hardest clip to show in the documentary, stating:
'There was one moment I was in China and I was in this huge suite and I looked out the window and there were just thousands of people walking and I couldn't believe my life,' adding: 'I guess I was a bit lonely and I wanted to talk to someone so I opened up my computer and I just talked.'
She further adds of her decision to star in the documentary: 'I wanted the fans to be able to see what I see. It's a lot of things I reveal about myself that I could never give to a director.'
Beyonce, who has sold more than 11 millon albums worldwide, is also seen in the documentary wearing traditional Egyptian coverings whilst visiting the Pyramids in Egypt. A special preview clip - aired in the U.S. today - shows Beyonce pondering as to why she is so successful: 'Sometimes its overwhelming. Why did God give me my talent, my gift, my family. But I know you're not supposed to question God. Only God knows. And I don't take it for granted.'
She also talks a bit about the pregnancy rumours, stating she is not pregnant, but would like to be in the near future: 'One of the reasons I haven't had a child yet is because there are certain things I want to do before I focus on being a mother. I'm not there yet but I'm close.'
We always admired Beyonce for keeping quiet about her personal life and thoughts, but this is a surprise indeed! Her statements have upset many, and that it is definitely understandable. She has everything a woman could possibly want, but is still unhappy, and so is just goes to show, the grass is not always greener on the other side! What do you think? ...

Mrs Beckham recently told InStyle magazine her beauty must-haves that she always keeps in her bag:-
Audrey's done it again! Skincare brand Olay conducted the 'Big British Beauty Poll' last week, and our ultimate style icon Audrey Hepburn won the title of 'Best Beauty Icon of All Time.' We agree, and so do 20,000 of the rest of British women who voted for her! 
The Queen is on a five-day trip to the Persian Gulf, and she arrived in Abu Dhabi last night to meet Islamic Students. As soon as she & Prince Philip stepped off their flight, they were taken to the famous Sheikh Zayed Mosque, the largest in the country.

Finally, after 8 years of courting, Clarence House announced today that Prince William & Kate Middleton are to be married sometime in Spring/Summer 2011 in London! Reportedly, Wills asked Kate's father for his daughter's hand in marriage (how traditionally sweet!) before popping the question last month whilst the two were holidaying in Kenya.
'Prince William has informed The Queen and other close members of his family. Prince William has also sought the permission of Miss Middleton's father. Following the marriage, the couple will live in North Wales, where Prince William will continue to serve with the Royal Air Force.'

Harry Potter star and face of Burberry, Emma Watson was spotted today wearing the first ever Burberry Bespoke Trench (the service that Burberry is offering which we blogged about here). Watson, who was in the US for the premiere of the final Harry Potter movie, tweeted whilst in Heathrow yesterday : "That's London done, now off to New York! Wearing my favourite trench that Christopher Bailey @Burberry designed for me. Love it! x"
Despite rumours on the Daily Mail website and in the Metro newspaper today, it is revealed that Kelly Preston is not in labour! Rumours became rife when it was reported that John Travolta cut his trip to Australia short to fly back to the US to be in time for his wife's labour. But despite these rumours, their rep said: "this story is 100 percent false. She is not in labour. John is in route back to the U.S. as was always the plan for him to return this weekend."

Ok, we previously blogged as to how we think Kim Kardash may have put on a few pounds (here), but appearing on the Jay Leno show two nights ago, we are now pretty sure that the 30-year old fashionista is definitely not a UK Size 6! (US 2). The usually fashionable Kim was wearing a very unflattering, beige dress with a cut-away section above the chest, drawing attention to and clinging to all the wrong areas.
