Don’t let the facts fool you, Beyoncé is really a down-home girl. OK, so she has sold more than 50 million albums (about 40 million with Destiny’s Child and some 15 million as a solo act, according to Nielsen SoundScan). Yes, the Golden Globes-nominated “Dreamgirls” star can list 10 Grammy Awards on her résumé and last month was named BET’s best female R&B artist. Her “Beautiful Liar” duet with Shakira is a huge hit, revitalizing her rereleased and expanded deluxe “B’Day” album, the 2006 follow-up to “Dangerously in Love.” “B’Day,” which opened at No. 1 on her birthday, has sold 3 million copies and is at No. 20 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It bears mentioning that she was on the cover of this year’s Sports Illustrated’s coveted swimsuit issue, and that with boyfriend Jay-Z, she is half of the biz’s true power couples. But what does the bootylicious one really dream about? A Houston-style day off.

“If it was a perfect day off, I would eat whatever I wanted. I’d wake up and have, you know, chicken and waffles and grits and cheese grits. And I’d see my nephew, and I’d relax and watch television, and you know, be in my sweats and my socks and just relax,” Beyoncé explained on “The Early Show” in April. She doesn’t get many of them. This weekend included. Beyoncé and her all-female band bring “The Beyoncé Experience” tour to AT&T Center on Sunday. “I know growing up I wished there was more female bands that I could kind of look up to,” she said in the same CBS interview about her latest outing. Expect a night of continuous hits, such as “Crazy in Love,” “Baby Boy,” “Dangerously in Love 2,” “Irreplaceable” and “Freakum Dress,” plus colorful costume changes and sexy dancers. Beyoncé’s international appeal is undeniable.

Recording “Beautiful Liar” with Shakira was a longtime dream. “She’s one of my favorite Latin singers, and I have nothing but respect for her. She’s so sweet, so sexy, so positive,” Beyoncé told MTV News. “We met three or four years ago at the MTV Video Music Awards, and we said, ‘We have to do something together,’ and finally, we made it happen.” The deluxe edition of her new album and video anthology includes tracks in Spanish. Her latest such venture is a collaboration with Mexican singer Alejandro Fernández on a flamenco number, “Amor Gitano” (Gypsy Love), which debuted on Telemundo’s “El Zorro.”
