Beyonce Knowles poses in a pair of jeans for House of Dereon brand clothing.According to Anythinghollywood.com, Beyonce Knowles knows how to seduce her fans into purchasing her brand, House of Dereon jeans. It appears topless photos are “in” right now, because just a few weeks after Keira Knightley made her decision to pose topless for Interview Magazine (and a Chanel ad), Beyonce is doing the same. In her new racy ad, Beyonce is wearing a pair of tight jeans, and that’s all.A source told News of the World, “Bey wanted to show just how seductive the label can be.” She did a good job. The jeans are quite tight, and have a “squiggly,” which is supposed to be a Fleur-de-Lis (a symbol of the French monarchy), on the back pockets.Beyonce may not have a single $100 million deal, but her list of endorsements in 2007 alone is enormous: American Express, her Samsung B'Phone, her Armani Diamonds perfume, her appearance in Disneyland's ad campaign as Alice from 'Alice in Wonderland,' her Direct TV ad and her continuing L'Oreal cosmetics contract.As the face of her own clothing lines run with her family, Dereon, and now Dereon Junior launched in 2007, Beyonce is everywhere and pulling in product-related cash from almost every commodity category. Her level of exposure, combined with the number, quality and diversity of her endorsement deals makes Beyonce BV's Top Black Celebrity Endorser of 2007.Labels: Beyonce Knowles

A poster featuring BEYONCE KNOWLES has been labelled obscene by shocked Las Vegas residents.The bikini-clad Bootylicious star appears in giant form on a massive advertising hoarding for a local radio station and locals have found the racy pic too much to stomach.They’re demanding it be torn down before it offends their sensibilities too greatly.One resident said: “It’s obscene. I have my two little grandkids coming over here, and they don’t need to be seeing that.“You can change the channel on the TV but you can’t change that.”Pleasingly, city officials will not be swayed by the more prudish elements of the public and have assured the radio station the offending image can stay.The station manger said: “The billboards were taken from publicity shots and this is the way those people perform.“So, to show them in a jogging suit probably wouldn’t be the right thing.“It complies with all the locational criteria that are set out in our code of conduct.”Labels: Beyonce Knowles

Was Beyoncé Knowles dangerously overexposed at her recent concert in Toronto?Amateur video footage of the 25-year-old star suffering an apparent wardrobe malfunction onstage was making the rounds on the Internet Wednesday. The blurry split-second shot seems to show Knowles' top flying up and exposing her bare breasts as she performs.However, despite how it may look on tape, the singer's rep insists that Knowles remained decent throughout the show, thanks to her well-coordinated undergarments."She was wearing a bra that perfectly matches her costume," the singer's publicist told E! News.The so-called flashing isn't the first semi-calamity to befall Knowles' Beyoncé Experience Tour.Last month, she tumbled face first down a flight of stair while performing in Orlando, but quickly recovered, almost without missing a beat.Though the singer good-naturedly asked fans not to put footage of her tumble on YouTube, they didn't obey her wishes and the clip was soon widely circulated.In early July, two fans were injured at Knowles' performance in St. Louis when pyrotechnics meant for the stage tumbled into the audience. After her show, the singer graciously paid the concertgoers a visit in the hospital to make sure they were doing okay (and ostensibly to fend off any potential lawsuits).Knowles was due to continue her tour Wednesday night in Denver.
