To the Left: Calls to Ban Beyonce Billboards Down Under
March 6th 2007 22:18
The “Destiny’s Child” star seems to have gone from bootylicious to bootybad, with cancer experts in Australia lobbying to ban advertisements for Beyonce’s upcoming tour.
The dancing diva is splashed across the nation’s billboards striking a passionate pose while holding a cigarette in a long, old fashioned holder.
But Queensland Cancer Fund tobacco issues co-coordinator Catherine Mahony is calling for officials to “Listen” up, as she believes the image could encourage young women to smoke.
"There are other ways she can create this image without having to use tobacco products," Mahony told Australian Newspaper The Courier Mail. "With young women, image issues usually win out over health issues and it can actually be a prompt for them to start smoking."
But this little hitch isn’t the only pitfall surrounding the pop princess, apparently she isn’t as “Crazy in Love” with Jay-Z as first thought.
According to Entertainment Wise, Miss Knowles is fed up with the rapper’s obsession with basketball and work and wants a “Baby Boy” who will make her top priority.
“B is sick of him possessively trying to keep things private. She doesn't feel enough affection or love from him," an insider told socialrank.com.
Could the dazzling deuce be heading for breakup boulevard?
Well, one thing that won’t be dying out anytime soon is Beyonce’s big-name booty.
The 25-year-old has confessed to UK’s Daily Star that she relieved to be eating normally again, after having to shed 20 pounds to be a “Dream Girl” diva.
“I’m a black woman and in our society hips and thighs are what are considered beautiful,” she said. “I would look in the mirror and not feel like a woman. I didn’t feel sexy.”
Finally, the world is “ready for this jelly” again.
