Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a rather disturbing rumor. I know that Knowles has got big boobs, long wavy hair and a sweet voice, but do we really want to see Harry dancing and shaking up on the stage... in drag? Well, of course we do! Now this is just a rumor for right now, but Harry's got... What? I'm writing a story here... hold on a minute, guys... What do you mean look at that again? It says Knowles in DREAMGIRLS... Oh... OHHHHH. It's Beyonce Knowles! Well, that makes more sense, then... Ahem...

Well, this is awkward... So, Beyonce may be in Bill Condon's adaptation of the musical dramatization of the story of the Supremes... That doesn't seem to jive with what Condon's been saying (Moriarty wrote a piece on this a few days ago, check it here!)

[Condon said he expects] to cast a star in the role of Curtis Taylor Jr., the Svengali who discovers singing group the Dreams and guides them to fame. They'll likely tap the rich crop of young singers for at least one member of the Dreams trio, but said they are open to creating a star, as the original musical did with Jennifer Holliday, who won a Tony for her show-stopping turn as Effie Melody White.

Beyonce is a pretty well known name, so if this RUMOR turns out to be true, then he likely changed his mind, although I've heard Condon hasn't held any casting meetings yet. It's possible Beyonce wowed him with a non-official meeting, I guess. I certainly like her work in GOLDMEMBER. She had the kick-ass Pam Grier vibe going strong and I loved her singing that disco/funktacular song! If she sang more stuff like that then I might buy one of her albums! But AUSTIN POWERS is hardly a good gauge on her acting abilities. I'll look for an official word on this. What do you folks think? Could she pull off a dramatic role? Remember Bill Condon was able to make Brendan Fraser give a good performance, so take that into consideration...
