Beyoncé graces the cover of the November issue of Harper’s Bazaar. In the accompanying interview, the superstar opens up about pregnancy, motherhood, and her hubbie Jay-Z.
Beyonce, who recently announced she is pregnant, said, “It was important to me that I gave myself time to focus on becoming the woman I want to be, building my empire, my relationship, and my self-worth, before I became a mother. Now God has blessed us with the ultimate.”
The songstress believes she is now ready for motherhood because, “I am finally at the stage in my life where I am not so concerned with other people’s opinions about my life decisions. It is so liberating to really know what I want, what truly makes me happy, what I will not tolerate. I have learned that it is no one else’s job to take care of me but me.”
About her husband, Beyoncé who is now 30 said she and Jay-Z have been together since she was just 20 years old. “We took our time and developed an unbreakable friendship before we got married. I admire his ability to inspire others.”

SPOTTED: Demi Lovato at The Grove in Los Angeles on October 11, 2011 for an interview with Extra‘s Mario Lopez.
Demi, who is happy and healthy for the first time in a long time, is ready to get back on stage when her Unbroken tour takes off November 16, 2011 in Detroit. Her new tune, Skyscraper, is a “song about rising above your problems and …is supposed to inspire people,” Lovato said.
Lovato, who publicly battled bulimia and was involved in cutting herself, recently finished a three-month-long stint at a treatment facility. She said sharing her past ordeals is not only therapeutic for her, but it also lets her inspire people in similar situations to get help. “When you go through something like this,” Lovato said, “you really find out who your true friends are and [Kim Kardashian and Selena Gomez] were really there for me.”
OOPS! The set of Brad Pitt‘s upcoming zombie movie, World War Z, was raided in Budapest Monday by a team of Hungarian police and a SWAT team looking for real weapons.
The raid resulted in the seizure of 85 fully-functional weapons, most of which were automatic, military-style assault rifles, stored in a warehouse on set. The weapons were supposed to be nonfunctional prop guns, but turned out to be fully working military-style assault rifles.
A source told US Weekly that Brad’s Plan B Entertainment production company simply made a mistake. “The movie company’s employees must have made a mistake bringing the guns in without the Anti-terrorism Unit’s permission.”
The director of Hungary’s Anti-Terrorism Unit said: “This morning a private plane brought guns wrapped in parcel from a company to an individual [in Budapest]. Guns like these are highly illegal to transport even if they were to be used a stage guns, which hopefully they weren’t.”
This can’t be welcomed news for Pitt whose film, per an US Weekly source, is “Already over budget and over schedule.”

“I feel like it has a flavor for everybody,” Alaina says. “There are fast songs for people who like up-tempos that you can dance to, and there are also tearjerkers for people who like slower ballads. I tried to get songs that are all a little different so that we could bring a fresh feel to each and every song.”
Here are the songs off of the album:
“Georgia Peaches”
“Growing Her Wings”
“Tupelo”
“The Middle”
“Like My Mother Does”
“She’s a Wildflower”

Tilda Swinton plays the mother of a violent, disturbed boy in her latest movie, We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Interesting words for the Oscar-nominated actress and the only girl in her immediate family who just admitted to Great Britain’s The Telegraph Magazine that she once tried to kill her own bother:
“Years ago, when James Bulger was murdered, every newspaper front page was talking about evil. At that point, having suppressed it for years, I remembered when I was four or five, I tried to kill my own brother… He was newly born and I was disappointed, because he was the third boy. That was enough as far as I was concerned.”
She continued, “I went into his room to kill him, saw some ribbons from a bonnet going into his mouth, and began to pull them out. And I was discovered saving his life. So I had this strange reputation – my brother’s savior – and no one knew I wanted to kill him. It took the Bulger case for me to remember that I’d seriously wanted to.”
Frightening? Traumatic?
