Beyonce is slowly making her way in the movie industry too and, judging by the way she was received by the critics, she is just a step farther down the road. If there are still people out there who still don't know which movie I'm referring to, let me say this: 'Dreamgirls'.

The movie/musical is directed by Bill Condon and can brag of a cast so famous that it can hardly be a flop (Jamie Foxx, Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson and Danny Glover). But, mostly, it's Beyonce the one that attracts all the attention and I guess there's no need to ask ourselves why anymore.

Despite a rather poorly received second solo album, the singer really managed to get inside the character she portrays in 'Dreamgirls': she lost a lot of weight, took acting classes and even had a personal voice trainer to show her how to sing like a '60s diva.

Big money were put in the publicity campaign for the musical, but its main star is also doing her best to show people that they would not be wasting their money on a ticket. Last night, Beyonce was invited on Oprah Winfrey's show and she thought singing a track featured in the movie would do a much better job at convincing people than just talking about it.

And now we get to what I wanted to say from the very beginning: Beyonce has a great voice and, even if her music is not to everybody's liking, she is one of the few real artists on the market. 'Listen', the track I was telling you about, only goes to clearly show that: her impeccable voice and the way she can use it in a wide range of sounds literally sends shivers down anyone's spine.

Maybe it's just me, but Beyonce really has enough talent and skills to be considered a true performer. Again, you don't have to take my word for it, so CLICK HERE for Beyonce on Oprah.
