And Beyonce: when the lights went up, she was crying. “I can’t believe it,” she told me, shaking her head. She will be a movie star. She told me that working on the movie spurred her to finish a new album. “We did it in two weeks,” she said, “Wait ‘til you hear it. It comes out on my birthday, Sept. 4, and it’s called ‘B Day.’ Making this movie really inspired me.” Rodney Jerkins produced much of it and wrote a lot of the material, a real R&B album. Maybe “Dreamgirls” has already had a good effect on the culture.

Beyonce has worked non-stop on this album She has had 2 sessions going at once. She had producers and writers staying over at her house. People who have heard the tracks said they are AMAZING!!!!!! Beyonce had so much inspiration from Dreamgirls but she was so busy with that. Once the movie was over, Bee went into the studio and EXPLODED, letting all that energy come out. I CANNOT WAIT!
