Beyonce Knowles is reportedly having a baby girl. The 'Halo' singer is currently expecting her first child with husband Jay-Z and friends say she was thrilled when she found out she was having a daughter because she wants them to have a close bond like she has with her mother Tina. A source told America's In Touch magazine: "Beyonce is thrilled she's having a daughter. She and her mother are so close, and she's wanted to have that relationship with her own child." Since finding out she is having a little girl, Beyonce has been busy buying lots of clothes for the unborn tot. The friend added: "Her family's afraid there won't be anything left to buy for her baby shower in December!" Beyonce, 30, recently revealed she has no concerns about her forthcoming step into motherhood and her pregnancy is "going really well". She explained: "It's going really well, I am so happy with everything right now. "I am not nervous because I know it's happening at the right time. I felt I got married at the right time for me, and now we are having the baby at the right time. I feel like we didn't rush anything, and now we are being blessed with everything naturally."

When Beyoncé took the stage back in August for four electrifying nights at the famed Roseland Ballroom, only 3,500 lucky fans per night, who bought those tickets in a record 22 seconds, were able to catch the intimate shows in the historic New York venue where she managed to turn a club into a coliseum. Praised as “robust,” “finely-tuned,” and “compelling” by The New York Times, “4 Intimate Nights With Beyoncé” at Roseland Ballroom, was a tour de force for the entertainer. It was the only time she would perform her new album, 4, almost completely and to a very limited audience. Backed by her all-female band, with an additional string section, the performances were punctuated with spirited stories detailing her journey before the album, 4, including her years before and with Destiny’s Child. On Monday, November 21, just in time for Thanksgiving, fans who longed to be at those shows can get up close and personal with Beyoncé and experience for themselves the energy and magic that filled the Ballroom with the release of Live At Roseland, exclusively at Walmart. The 26-song live DVD brings the quaint setting turn stadium performances to your living room. And on Tuesday, November 29, Live At Roseland: The Elements Of 4 deluxe package, a two-disc DVD, with the complete concert, bonus offstage footage, a 20-page booklet and a video anthology that includes seven videos from her latest album, 4, will be released worldwide. The concert documentary is filled with never-before seen footage that captures Beyoncé’s life from eager five-year-old music fan to a consummate entertainer who is in control of every inch of her life and career. In advance of the DVD’s release, the new video for “Party,” included in the anthology on the deluxe DVD, will be on air on BET’s 106 & Park tonight and online with VEVO and Beyonceonline.com. Directed by Beyoncé and Alan Ferguson, “Party” is the sixth video released from “4” and features rapper J Cole with cameos from Solange and Kelly Rowland. Live At Roseland was directed by Beyoncé, Ed Burke and Anthony Green and executive produced by Beyoncé for Parkwood Entertainment, in association with Columbia Records.

Making sure to maintain her well-kept self, Beyonce Knowles was all smiles as she stepped out for a pampering session in New York City's East Village on Tuesday night (October 25). The expecting singer was in quite the cheerful mood as she and an assistant strolled out of Sakura Nail Salon following the mani/pedi treatment.

11. “Love a Woman” feat. Beyoncé

Mary J. Blige and Beyoncé represent for the ladies on this soulful mid-tempo. The powerhouse divas take turns telling the opposite sex what they want in a relationship while displaying their powerful pipes. Mary opens the empowering track before B chimes in. “A woman needs you to love her, she needs more than sex,” declares the pregnant songstress. Fellas, take notes.

Here’s your first look at Beyoncé’s funky fresh video for “Party,” the Kanye West-produced jam off her platinum album 4. B throws a backyard bash with her friends in the colorful, retro-themed visuals. The bikini babe basks in the sun and splashes in the pool as her sister Solange works the turntables. J. Cole, who appears on the remix, sweeps through in his blue Bugatti to join the old school festivities. The full video is expected to premiere this week.

Bringing an end to the weekend with a little quality family bonding, pregnant singer Beyonce Knowles joined younger sister Solange for a bite to eat in New York City on Sunday (October 23). The two lovely ladies made separate arrivals as they opted to chow down at Brooklyn eatery Buttermilk Channel for their weekend brunch outing.

Beyoncé will premiere her video for "Party" on BET's "106 & Park" next Tuesday and by the looks of it, André 3000 won't appear in the clip. Instead, J. Cole now appears on the official version to the Kanye West-produced single off 4. Check it out below.

Even the First Lady can't resist Beyoncé's beats. Michelle Obama, who is encouraging the nation to work out as part of her "Let's Move" campaign, has revealed the tunes that get her motivated. "I always love Beyoncé, so anything fast-paced that she's doing is a good one for me," Obama said in a video response to questions from the "Let's Move" online audience. "But I have very eclectic tastes, so my playlist on my iPod, which I listen to, runs from fast paced to a little more mellow." The Obamas are actually longtime Beyoncé fans – the singer performed at the Neighborhood Ball celebrating the President's inauguration. But no matter Americans' musical tastes, the First Lady says the most important thing is to find something that moves you. "Listen to whatever you like and whatever is going to get you motivated, and for me that's a lot," she added. "The important thing is that you get up, you try to get that workout in."

Beyoncé has graced us with another amazing video for Love on Top this week! Taken from the amazing album 4, she had this to say about the new video: "I have worked very hard on this video, this song is special to me and I had an idea for the video based on some of my favourite male groups. I remember seeing videos from New Edition, The Jackson 5 and the Temptations, bands I love for their beautiful harmonies, and precise choreography and I always wanted to make a video and be part of a boy group myself. It was so much fun. I put my heart and soul into 'Love On Top' and I hope you love it."
