Beyonce Knowles: Look My Talent Not My Body

Superstar Beyonce Knowles blames her beautiful looks for preventing people from seeing what a talented artist she really is. The former Destiny's Child singer has enjoyed a flourishing solo career and has had movie success starring in films including The Pink Panther - but she still yearns to be respected as an artist. The 24-year-old says, "It's frustrating, because sometimes, when you are attractive, people don't acknowledge that you are talented as well. "I mean, I'm a songwriter, I'm a producer, I have a strong voice, I'm a dynamic performer. Sometimes people forget that." Source
