"Crazy in Love" Remix 2015

Beyoncé Just Released the "Crazy in Love" Remix, and It's Even Better Than the Original

Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" remix is finally here, and it's amazing. The song, a new version from Beyonce's self-titled album, is among 16 tracks on the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack. It's a brilliant reimagining of her debut solo single in 2003 — and a sign of just how far she's come.

Beyoncé's collaborator behind the remix is Boots, the homeless man-turned-superstar producer. The new "Crazy in Love" is hauntingly beautiful; it hearkens back the best of Beyoncé's last record, and it's a brilliant reinterpretation of the original. It's also strikingly similar to Beyoncé and Andre 3000's remix of Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" for Baz Luhrman's Great Gatsby
The Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack features another Beyoncé song, "Haunted," remixed by Michael Diamond. It's yet to be released, but all of Beyoncé's contributions to the record have been eagerly anticipated since she first revealed her involvement in the soundtrack seven months ago with this clip:

Grammys 2015: Beyonce’s Performance Will Be “Dramatically Different” from Last Year’s

Last year, Beyonce kicked off the 2014 Grammys with a performance of “Drunk in Love” that was billed anything from flawless to shameless and inappropriate. She is booked to perform at this year’s edition as well, taking place this Sunday.
However, expect no rubbin’ and gridin’ and no Jay Z cameo, President and CEO of The Recording Academy Neil Portnow tells E! News at the Billboard Power 100 Celebration in Beverly Hills.
Beyonce is not an artist who’s gotten to where she is today by being stuck in the same routine, even concerning her live performances. So for the Grammys 2015, she is preparing a performance that will be “dramatically different than anything [we’]ve seen her do in a long time,” Portnow explains.
He wouldn’t say what he meant by that, but that makes sense because he wants it to be a surprise. “It's really going to be a spectacular moment for us and for her for sure,” he teased.
Portnow is convinced, from what he’s seen in rehearsals so far, that this year’s Grammys will be the most memorable edition of all time, not just because of the A-list performers but also thanks to the duets planned.
Viewers at home should expect live acts from Beyonce, Katy Perry, Pharrell, Madonna, Miranda Lambert, Ariana Grande and Kanye West, but also duets from Sam Smith and Mary J. Blige, Sia and AC/DC, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett, Jessie J and Tom Jones, Adam Levine and Gwen Stefani.
Rihanna will also perform her new song “FourFiveSeconds” for the first time live, and will be joined on stage by Kanye and Sir Paul McCartney.

Grammys 2015 performers: No Taylor Swift but there's a Beyonce rumour

Taylor Swift won't be a surprise performer at Sunday's Grammy Awards.
But Rihanna, Paul McCartney and Kanye West will. The Recording Academy announced on Tuesday that the trio would play their single, FourFiveSeconds live for the first time.
Taylor Swift won't be making an appearance however.
And rumours are circulating that album of the year favourite Beyonce might perform too – in a tribute to the civil rights movie Selma, with John Legend and rapper Common.
Between them, Rihanna, West and McCartney have won 46 Grammys. West will be looking to add to his tally of 21 in the rap/sung collaboration catgegory, with Bound 2 (sung with Charlie Wilson). Rihanna is up against West in the same category for her collaboration with Eminem on The Monster.
Swift says she's too focussed on her world tour to take to the Grammys stage. But she will be sure to shake her booty to the acts that are performing. "A lot of you have been asking about the Grammys this week and I just wanted to give you an update," Swift said.
"I'm really excited to be nominated for three Grammys this year and even more excited that I'll be there having a dance party/rage fest in the audience.
"I will also be presenting the award for best new artist. Since my whole life is wrapped up and entangled in the planning of The 1989 World Tour right now, I'm not going to be performing on the Grammys this year. I need this time to focus only on the tour."
Despite earning four Grammy nods, Sia's not sure she'll attend the big show on Sunday (Monday Australian time).
"I know, it's getting a little close," longtime manager David Russell said in an interview last week. "It remains to be seen what we'll do."
Sia and Chandelier earned nominations in the top categories, including song and record of the year.
The Australian singer caused a stir when she didn't attend the recent ARIA Music Awards even though she won five honours, including album of the year. Instead, Sia filmed an acceptance speech starring comedian Carrot Top.    
Russell, who has worked with Sia for more than a decade, said they didn't see the commercial success coming. "We didn't anticipate that kind of reaction, but that fact that that's come has been extraordinary," he said. 
Other confirmed performers at the Grammys include Madonna, Sam Smith, Pharrell, Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Sarah Bareilles and Carole King.


Beyoncé continues to show off weight loss in sexy mini-dress ...after admitting she still eats meat on vegan diet

She is certainly not shy when it comes to sharing pictures of herself online.
On Friday, Beyonce Knowles, 33, posted a series of new shots on her official site wearing an interesting ensemble that appeared to be half mini-dress, half ballgown.
The wife of rapper Jay Z - who has had controversial week after announcing details of her vegan diet - star struck a number of over-the-top poses against a white backdrop, reminiscent of her seminal pop promo for Single Ladies. 







Beyonce was blasted by some of her fans for shameless teasing them with a major announcement that turned out to be her revealing a vegan diet, on Monday.
So perhaps these high-fashion style pictures were an attempt to move on from it all.   
But to make matters worse, fans have been surprised to hear Beyonce is only a part-time vegan and still eats meat.
Big announcement: Though fans were expecting a new single or a second pregnancy, Beyonce revealed her big news on Good Morning America was about her vegan diet and new meal delivery service 


Double trouble: It has been a controversial week for the star after revealing all about her vegan diet (leaving fans disappointed, who had anticipated slightly more exciting news) 
In a video explaining her new diet, she said: 'Now, you know, I still eat meat and it's all about balance, but absolutely I make better choices.' 
Many had speculated that Beonce could be announcing the news of a new album or even a new baby on the way, when she asked fans to tune into GMA on Monday.
Instead, it appeared to be an excuse for the former Destiny's Child star to show off her incredibly fit physique - prompting angry fans to hit back on Twitter.  

Look at me! Beyonce posted a series of flattering shots of herself on Monday, after revealing all about her new vegan diet that has kept her looking trim
