'DREAMGIRLS' PREMIERE
Dream babes Jennifer Hudson, Anika Noni Rose and Beyonce Knowles (in Elie Saab) dazzled on the red carpet last night at the 'Dreamgirls' premiere at New York City's famed Ziegfeld Theatre.
Beyonce denies rumours that she was jealous of her 'Dreamgirls' co-star Jennifer Hudson.
"I knew that the character I played wasn't the star," Beyonce told reporters on December 2 about her Deena Jones role, compared to Hudson's meaty part as Effie White. "She wasn't the underdog. She didn't have the struggle and the pain and the dramatic scenes that Effie had, and I was fine with that. It's really unfortunate that everyone is saying I'm jealous of Jennifer. It hurts my heart because it's so clichéd... They're saying that I'm mad when I knew going into this that I was playing Deena... Because I'm a star they just automatically assume that I'm not humble enough to sit down and take a back seat, which I am. I'm already a star. I already have nine Grammys. Everyone knows I can sing...I did this because I wanted people to know that I can act and I can play someone so different from myself."
