Barack Snubs Celebrities, Ask's Them To STAY AWAY?!! + Beyonce's & Bangladesh's New Music Leaks!
Posted on November 4, 2008 12:01 PM
It looks like all the celebrities of the world that assisted Barack Obama with their various endorsements, music, and encouragement to get the people to get out and vote, have come to the end of the line.
The Chicago Sun-Times is reporting that Democratic Presidential hopeful, Barack Obama is asking all of them to stay away from tonight's Chicago event where he is expected to announce his win over Republican presidential hopeful, Senator John McCain.
Obama is dedicating tonight's rally in Chicago to the regular people of the world. There's a new report out saying that all celebrities have been " been told politely -- but very firmly -- to stay away tonight."
Reportedly, Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, Sean ''Diddy'' Combs, Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins and Ben Affleck are among those advised to skip the Chicago festivities and focus on attending the expected Obama inauguration in January.
'There really only needs to be one star in Grant Park, and that's Barack,'' said the source, a high-profile elected official who spoke on the condition of anonymity, since he's not authorized to speak for the campaign on this issue.
Though Obama appreciates every celebrity who contributed their "star power" to his cause, this really needs to be about "the people," Barack and his family.
But you already know that his ruling doesn't include the Queen of daytime television, Ms. Oprah Winfrey.
Oprah, one of Obama's biggest star supporters, has confirmed that she will be on hand in Grant Park tonight and it's assumed she will join the candidate and his family and true inner circle in his suite at the Hyatt Regency Hotel.
Shout out to Barack for telling Jay and them to stay home. This ain't that kind of party.
Trouble maker Lowkey [not really] just posted a track on his BET blog that partners Pop music's most popular artist with Hip-Hop's most popular producer. The song is called "Diva" and it looks as if Beyonce is abandoning her trade mark vocals for a more urban sound.
[Have A Listen To Song Here]
Bey teamed up with highly sought after producer, Bangladesh for this record. I'm really not sure how I feel about it. I'm thinking its more of a filler for the album then anything else.
I don't see a hit with this.
Watch her drop a remix with Jay-Z.
And if you're hungry for some new unreleased music, check out LowKey's Disc Changer Series [Season Two] on his personal blog. The musical homie has unreleased material from Kanye West, Busta Rhymes & Nicole S. [From The Pussycat Dolls] & More.

I think that Obama made the right decision by choosing just to celebrate with the people!
