Hollywood’s biggest maneater Lindsay Lohan is jetting in to co-host next month’s World Music Awards - and wants to bring with her an entourage including Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie (if she gets out of rehab in time). Gulp! Has La-la Land finally run out of Greek gazillionaire suitors?

The workshy actress - who used to be America’s problem - will be guest of honour at a pre-show cocktail party hosted by jewellers Van Cleef and Arples at a secret location.

We can also reveal that the ceremony will be opened by uberbabe Beyonce singing her sizzling hit Deja Vu. It all takes place at London’s Earl’s Court Arena on November 15.

Jay-Z might not be going for a big ring, but where Beyonce the well known girlfriend is concerned, he is definitely going for the big bread. Considering this gorgeous creature has a dozen of everything, she just got gifted with a Jean-Michel Basquiat painting. Being no artist is as hot as a dead artist, this little cost non-husband Jay-Z a couple of mil. A solitaire would have been cheaper.

They’re crazy in love and they’re in Sydney. R’nB’ babe Beyonce and rapper Jay-Z landed here this morning. Despite her casual appearance of jeans, thongs and a black beret - plus a bouncy-licious stuffed kanagaroo - Beyonce’s star power still outshone her burly boyfriend as the couple, flanked by the obligatory entourage, made their way through Sydney international airport.

Not one to allow her man to be tempted by the gorgeous groupies that come with an international tour, the former Destiny’s Child singer has accompanied Jay Z around the world on his Roc Tha Block extravaganza. The couple are staying in Sydney until Thursday morning.

If Jay-Z’s recent show at London’s Wembley Arena is anything to go by, fans attending his show at the Entertainment Centre on Wednesday night could be in for a big treat. The hip-hop star, who recently announced his return from retirement, invited Beyonce on stage to perform a version of ger hit Crazy in Love, with the couple then belting out a duet of her recent single Dj Vu.

IT’S FINALLY HERE! The official Dreamgirls trailer has been revealed and it’s only made me more excited for the movie! Check it out!

A new Beyonce song, “Listen,” leads the soundtrack to the film “Dreamgirls,” due Dec. 5 via Music World/Sony Urban, 16 days before the film opens in wide U.S. theatrical release. The cut, which Beyonce co-wrote, is due to arrive this week at U.S. radio outlets; its video will premiere the week of Nov. 13.

Although the full track list has yet to be announced, another song from the album, “One Night Only” has been making the rounds as a dance mix. “Dreamgirls” will also be available in a two-disc edition with extra music from the movie. “Dreamgirls” is loosely based on the rise and fall of the Supremes and stars Beyonce as a member of an up-and-coming vocal trio. Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy and Danny Glover also appear.

Beyonce will perform Nov. 21 at the American Music Awards, although it is unknown if she will play a track from her new album, “B-Day,” or a song from “Dreamgirls.” The cast of the film is expected to visit MTV’s “TRL” in early December.

Soul legend Diana Ross has offered to give advice on how to enjoy a long career to superstars including Beyonce Knowles, Alicia Keys and Mariah Carey. The 62-year-old has enjoyed more than 40 successful years in the music industry and is keen to pass her wisdom onto the current generation of female artists.

Ross says, “I was getting ready to give advice and support to any of them that wants that. Because Mariah Carey used to always ask, when I would spend time with her, how to have longevity. aSo I am available to discuss what it takes.”

Nothing really special is going on with this billboard update. Irreplaceable has been released as a single overseas along with a very great video, and only time will tell how well this song does over here in the States. A lot of people love the song AND the video … so once it releases here, I’m sure Beyonce will have her first #1 single as a SOLO Artist! — Meaning, no Beyonce featuring “whoever” hehe. Anyhow, Upgrade U appears to be doing well on the urban charts (how? I don’t know .. there’s no video, and it’s not even an official single over here, lol). Also, this appears to be Deja Vu’s last week on the Hot 100, so don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t show up in next week’s update - it’s already been knocked off of the Pop 100. But no worries, a lot of us fans expected it ;-) I’ll update with the next billboard chart this weekend. See ya then! =)

Singer Beyonce Knowles and rapper beau Jay-Z were forced to revise their travel plans after finding that their luggage would not fit in the Boeing 747 they had reserved.The couple chartered a second plane to Johannesburg when South African Airways staff told them the entire first-class lounge was insufficient to hold their “almighty collection of suitcases”, the Sun reports.

Beyonce, 25, and Jay-Z, 36, made the trip from New York for a glossy magazine photo shoot and a source told the newspaper: “The trip only lasts two weeks but it looked like they were emigrating. “The airline were accommodating with their allowance but the check-in desk said that regardless of how much they could afford, there simply wasn’t enough room. “Luckily, Jay-Z and Beyonce aren’t short of a bob and coughed up to charter a separate plane.”

The diva couple also took part in a safari while in the South African capital, but shocked photographers by changing outfits four times before the photo shoot had even begun.

Because ForeverBeyonce was down, I wasn’t able to post this so I’m doing it now in hopes that it’ll help. AOL Music has revealed their new Face Off and it’s between Beyonce and Perez Hilton. For those who don’t know, Perez is ‘famous’ for scrutinuzing pretty much everything Beyonce does. He made a post on his blog and SUPPOSEDLY is getting people to cheat for him (including voting for himself), so I’m asking every person who reads this to go and vote for Beyonce as many times as you can. It may not seem like much, but Perez’s head is big enough as it is. You only have a day or two left so GO!!
