Despite rumors of collaborations with Kanye West and Justin Timberlake, there are no guest stars on the new album. Beyoncé’s dad said this was a purposeful choice designed to spotlight the singer’s growth without fellow celebs getting in the way.
He did, however, allude to plans for a guest on the song “Ego” that fell through. Given the title and playful lyrics (“It’s too big/It’s too wide/It’s too strong/It won’t fit…He’s got a huge ego…I love his big ego”), one could guess this was the track designed for a West cameo, though Knowles demurred when asked what happened with the celebrated rapper.

p.s: So dissapointed, I like Beyonce’s and Justin’s music a lot, so I was looking forward to hearing their duet together cause Im sure it was going to be great. Well I hope we hear it someday.

I saw the article about this on Entertainment Weekly’s website. I love beyonce but frankly she sounds a bit full of herself to me. Maybe justin will put it on his next album.

That really sucks. So does Beyonce. On a brighter note anyone see the new footage of justin standing in front of jessica while she talks and he pretends it’s him talking. It’s where he did the vote in a box video footage. It was really cute. I saw in last night on Extra.

Yeah, it was really funny and original the mimic Justin & Jessica did. A fresh and perfect way to get ppl interested in the voting process.
Oh and it was cool to see Jessica dancing

Wonder how true this is. It’s from fox news.
In other Mousketeer news, remember back in 2003 when super hunk Justin Timberlake wanted to rock the body of Kylie Minogue at the Brit Awards? They hooked up for a mind blowing duet & Justin now tells me that he is ready to pick up “where we left off .” Justin, who’s now dating Jessica Biel, tells me “I am writing new tunes now for the next album & I have a great idea for me & Kylie, so hopefully she will say yes and things will finally take off for her here, too.” That’s great news for Kylie, whose latest album “X” has fizzled in the U.S.
