Beyonce Will Conquer Every Genre: Country Edition

by: Julianne Shepherd

After Sugarland collabo, Beyonce rumored to be cutting country album with "You're Beautiful" songwriter.

Beyonce's said to be getting back to her Texas roots and working on a country-western record, according to British newspaper The Sun. This revelation comes just days after her internet-infamous collaboration with country group Sugarland, wherein the sassy lassies performed "Irreplacable" on the AMAs, gesturing wildly all the while. Well, you just have to watch it.
­ Apparently Bey was so taken with the Sugarland blondie's twang-and-swang, she's started working on a country record with Amanda Ghost, the songwriter who blessed James Blunt with department-store anthem "You're Beautiful." Early this year, Bey registered her intent to conquer the Latin market, releasing a Spanish-language version of "Irreplacable" and landing on People en Espanol's "50 Most Beautiful List" (where she was the only non-Latina). But will she stop at the country charts? Call us when she drops a rap mixtape. Actually... don't.
