Fantastic Femmes--Beyonce Knowles

Note: this page has been updated with NEW info HERE!
An award-winning singer and talented actress, Beyonce has done relatively little genre work, but what she has done has been attention-grabbing!
Curiously, though her non-genre acting has been in "serious" films like Cadillac Records and DreamGirls, her genre movie work has only been in comedies!
Genre appearances...
Austin Powers in Goldmember (Foxxy Cleopatra, also performed song on soundtrack)
The Pink Panther (Xania, also performed songs on soundtrack)
Pepsi Commercial "Gladiators" (Gladiator, also performed song)
