Beyonce has recently released a black and white sultry video- Dance For You. The video begins with Miss Knowles walking inside the office of a detective and then takes off her jacket seductively while the rain pours outside. Music starts and fans are in for a treat as the singer performs a sexy dance routine.

Later on, she's joined by other backup dancers. Her baby bump isn't visible in the video which means it was shot before her pregnancy. This will be the eighth video that will be included on the 30-year-old global superstar's Elements of 4 video anthology. The video has got over 2 lakh hits on You Tube.

The '20s-inspired video is shot in black and white, and Beyonce proves yet again that she can really work it -- even though the object of her affection in the steamy clip doesn't even crack a smile until the final frame.

An alternate version for Beyonce Knowles' controversial "Countdown" music video has just surfaced. It has a slight change by excluding a scene which features the R&B diva doing a routine inspired by Belgian choreographer Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker's dance.

The other scenes are pretty much the same. It shows the pregnantsinger glowing with happiness. She slips into a lot of different costumes including an edgy maternity outfit which shows off her growing belly and channeling the spirit of Audrey Hebpurn by wearing short bangs and cropped black pants.

The original music video actually received positive response when it came out in early October. It, however, was marred with controversy surrounding the unattributed homage when the original choreographer sounded off her disappointment. "They took pieces from Achterland and Rosas danst Rosas. ... It's a bit rude," she said.

"There are protocols and consequences to such actions, and I can't imagine she and her team are not aware of it," Anne issued another statement to refer to Beyonce's failure to credit her. The choreographer, however, gushed, "She [Bey] sings and dances very well, and she has a good taste!"

Beyonce herself never denied the similarities. Before the video was premiered, her "Countdown" co-director Adria Petty had, in fact, warned fans that there were a number of German modern-dance references in it. "Clearly, the ballet 'Rosas danst Rosas' was one of many references for my video 'Countdown'," Queen Bey said. "It was one of the inspirations used to bring the feel and look of the song to life."

Beyonce sure kept busy before she got busy. The R&B queen just released two teasers for her latest video from her album 4, apparently shot before, or shortly after, she became pregnant. They tip ’40s style and her smokin’ body.

The two short clips, shot in black and white, feature her latest song “Dance For You,” and she puts on quite the slinky performance in vintage black panties and garters. The setting looks like a Humphrey Bogart movie. It’s a clear take-off on mid-20th Century film noir that featured sharp camera angles and deep shadows.

A mystery man in snap-brim Fedora and suspenders watches as Bea gyrates on a desk and armchair. She loves to be watched, she coos. The video will be included in the deluxe edition of Beyonce’s Live at Roseland DVD special, which is slated to be released on Nov. 29, in time for the holidays.

The Live at Roseland DVD is based on her performance last August at the famed Roseland Ballroom over four nights. The deluxe DVD retails for $21.98, but pre-order it through TheImproper at amazon.com and buy it for $14.99 You Save $6.99, or 32 percent. You can also download her music.

Beyoncé got her start as the lead singer of Destiny’s Child, a group that her father managed from the time she was a child.  The group also included Kelly Rowland who has had a good amount of success, though not as much as Beyoncé.  There’s no denying that the man knows what it takes to make a group successful and maybe that is why Mathew Knowles wants to give it another try.

Of course, he may also be looking to make some money now too since Beyoncé ended her professional relationship with her father and his wife, Tina Knowles, left him after an affair with a much younger woman produced a child.

Whatever the reasons, Knowles is now collaborating with MTV to create the new reality show, Breaking From Above.  The program will show seven women (five from the U.K. and two from the U.S.) competing in the Star Power Boot Camp for a spot in Knowles’ new all-girl group “From Above.”

"If I'm the lead singer, I've got to know that, accept that, and all the members have got to accept it," he said. "Everybody's role has to be established at day one," said Knowles. "Most reality shows are about putting together groups, this is the opposite," he added. The show will air on MTV but no premiere date has been announced.

Beyonce Knowles apparently struggled to hide her pregnancy before making it public at this year's MTV Video Music Awards. The "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" hitmaker opened up about it in an interview before the screening of her new concert DVD, "Live at Roseland: The Elements of 4".

Taking the stage at the Paris Theatre in New York on Sunday, November 20, the wife of music mogul Jay-Z admitted that she worried her baby secret would be exposed when performing for four nights to sold-out crowds at New York's Roseland Theater in August. "The whole time I definitely was thinking, 'Everyone knows, everyone can see,' " she shared.

The 30-year-old singer additionally talked about other difficulties she was dealing with as she performed at the gigs. "When you're pregnant, it's a little bit harder to breathe," she explained as quoted by The Associated Press, "so it was hard doing all the choreography and singing at the same time."

Beyonce wasn't hiding her baby bump when coming to the special screening event. In fact, the "Countdown" singer wore a form-fitting brown dress with plunging neckline and embellished gold detail that draws attention to her growing belly.

"Live at Roseland: The Elements of 4" itself is set to be made available for purchase in the United States on November 29. In addition to documenting Queen Bey's performance at the famed Roseland Ballroom, it also features some behind-the-scene moments and rare footage of the singer in her younger years.

With a baby on the horizon, Jay-Z is getting "a little paranoid" about the family's future. The rap mogul's wife Beyonce Knowles is currently expecting their first child together and while he can't wait to be a dad, the '99 Problems' hitmaker admits he can't help but think about his own father, who walked out of their family home when he was just 11 years old.

He said: "It makes me a little paranoid because no matter what, I don't think any person, or any male, goes into a relationship thinking that they're going to leave or wouldn't be there. "I think the circumstances a lot of times dictates things, right?"

However, Jay-Z -- his real name is Shawn Carter -- insists he is different from his father and "highly principled" so thinks he will never act the same. He said: "I'm just a different kind of guy. I come from a real place where you had to be a highly principled person so, I'm pretty confident that I'll figure it out."
