why??? for some reason beyonce performed at the annual wal-mart stockholders meeting (which took place today in the bud walton arena at the university of arkansas) girlfriend must have made some serious bank on this one…but i highly doubt they would have paid american idol taylor hicks (who also performed) anything close to what beyonce got paid to shake her booty and show off her pipes! maybe taylor had to do it gratis to fulfill some idol contract bullshit – who knows! anyways i do love ms. b but wal-mart??? i am so sure the retail monster will be all up in her second solo release b’day which hits stores on sept 4th ( which is her 25th birthday) popbytes over & out for now…xxoo!
