BEYONCE Knowles has sparked controversy by saying she only makes records for black people. Since the Deja Vu singer made the statement sales of her new album, B’Day, have fallen by 70 per cent in the US. Beyonce, 25, told Blender: “I make black records. I write records like I speak, and I don’t try to change my songs so everyone else likes them.” The singer also said she can relate to celebrities who attack the paparazzi. Beyonce said: “It must be really scary to have your children in front of all these people. That’s your kids. That’s when Mama Knowles is gonna be punching some photographers!” - From BANG Showbiz

I’m not sure how “I make black records. I write records like I speak, and I don’t try to change my songs so everyone else likes them” equates to “I make records for only black people.” Apparently, this has had some effect on her album sales, “since the Deja Vu singer made the astonishing statement sales of her new album, B’Day, have fallen by 70 per cent in the US.”
