Beyonce Knowles made a stop at a rehab centre, but not for the reason that most might think. The R&B singer and actress reportedly visited the centre to do research for her upcoming movie role as Etta James in “Cadillac Records.”
“I never tried drugs in my life so I didn’t know about it all, It was hard to go there. In the beginning I didn’t want to offend anyone, I didn’t want to ask the wrong questions or seem judgmental. They were so honest, though, and I am so thankful. I don’t think I could have understood that level of pain or need. What they do there is amazing. I learned a lot about life and myself.”
Bey also tried very hard to make sure she got everything right about Etta so she worked endlessly to learn all that she possibly could. “I read Etta’s book and watched every video of her I could find. I wanted to do her justice. She’s a real woman that had guts and was unapologetic. . . . I wanted to have the swollen eyes and the veins in my face too. I wanted to make it real.”
Well, I’m excited to see how all that research will turn out. Hopefully, Bey will make Etta proud.
