Sorry, it took us a while to catch back up to everything we'd missed. We'd severely underestimated the amount of news that had happened in our absence. Fortunately, we've got it wrapped up in a nice package for you right here.

Annie Savoy said, "...I've tried all the major religions, and most of the minor ones...I've tried 'em all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the Church of Baseball." Well, Annie, our church officially opens for business today when the St. Louis Cardinals pay a visit to our Houston Astros for Opening Day for the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park. Wandy E. Rodriguez gets the start. He's got no decisions in the season thus far with only five innings under his belt, but his numbers are OK - six strike outs, a walk, but four earned runs. Start warming up your "Hey, batta, batta!" after your three o'clock staff meeting. The ball club takes the field at 6:05 PM.
The Foo Fighters, Beyonce, Rihanna and many others are set to perform at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards airing next Sunday on CBS at 7pm.
From local Houston headlines, we bring you these weekend news bits...
Our favorite at-work timewasters over at TMZ.com are reporting that Houston's pop/R&B princess herself has reunited with original Destiny's Child member Michelle Rowland to open an apartment building: The Knowles-Rowland Temenos Place Apartments, for people trying to improve their situations who might not otherwise have a place to live. Through her charity, the Survivor Foundation, Beyonce and her family are building and financing the building, which will be a 48 unit "short term to longterm...
Some of you may have seen the painful video of Houston star Beyonce Knowles slipping and falling down at a recent show in JamLando (that's for you, Dave).
We really wish Gomez was performing a headlining show here, but we have to settle with them just being an opening act for The Fray (along with Eisley) this Friday night in The Woodlands. However, Gomez is playing a stand-alone show Saturday night in Austin, if you're lucky enough to find tickets for it. Some veteran Houston acts play around town this week. Beaumont's Clay Walker will perform after the races at Sam Houston...
MTV's reporting that Beyonce, who last week was getting sued over covering Des'ree's song, is pulling the album containing the song, "B'Day", along with an accompanying music video DVD. The ban will be in effect at least until May 4th, when a preliminary hearing will take place.
With all that went down this week, we thought we thought we'd cheer everyone up by giving everyone a double dose of dogs. It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions this week at DCist. Like the rest of country, we were floored by the news of so many dead coming out of Virginia Tech, and with so many of the victims and their relatives from the D.C. area, we felt it important to pay...
Oops! Houston siren Beyonce's getting sued. Seems she wanted to cover mid-90s popstar Des'ree's song. (You'd recognize Des'ree from her song "You Gotta Be", which Houstonist runs into at the gym every single time we go. Also? Five words: Sunny. Ninety-Nine. Point. One. Or is that four words? We never understood about the hyphenated thingies....) Ahem. Anyway.... Des'ree's song "I'm Kissing You", which was featured in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet back in 1996 somehow...
Here are some upcoming shows who's tickets recently went on sale: Seal - 5/29 @ Verizon Wireless Theater Beyonce - 7/14 @ Toyota Center Rush - 8/14 @ Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion Great week of concerts for alternative and independent music lovers. Yo La Tengo, who's latest CD was one of our favorites last year (and our favorite album title), comes to Warehouse LIve on Friday. They have some competition that night, though: TV...
We get all our Beyonce--and other celeb--news from PerezHilton.com. The deliciously mean Perez--who calls himself the Queen of All Media-- has been getting lots of press recently, and his site is the place for gossip. Admit it, everyone reads US Weekly sometimes. And if catty columnists are your thing, check out this blog for a ton of guilty-pleasure fun. As an added bonus, the proudly gay and Latino Perez has also got great taste it...
Gossip website (and awesome time-waster) PerezHilton.com is reporting that Beyonce is the Got Milk? campaign's biggest star.......again. (Click here for a sneak preview of the ad itself!) Only months after posing for a milk ad with her mom, House of Dereon's Tina Knowles, the Houston-based superstar is posing again, this time with her younger sister Solange, (sometime singer--she even has a Myspace!-- and star of the third Bring It On movie. Insert your own snarky...
Back in November, we gave you a sneak peak at some of the entertainers that were lined up for the 2007 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Today, the full line-up has been announced. It looks like the committee decided to stick with the devil they know, instead of finding fresh acts. The only performers making their rodeo debut are Los Lonely Boys, KEM, Josh Turner, Pesado, Sugarland, The Cheetah Girls and Hannah Montana. Sheryl Crow...
So yesterday, we talked about the recent run of bad press Houston’s Beyonce has received with Dreamgirls related news. As the saying goes, she’s probably crying all the way to the bank.
Poor Ms. Knowles....after catty comments about costar Jennifer Hudson and very mixed reviews for her performance in Dreamgirls, things just aren't looking up yet for the Houston-born music industry darling.
Beyonce is all over the news again. There are reports that she’s jealous over her “Dreamgirls” co-star Jennifer Hudson. And from what Beyonce said to defend herself, it sounds like she really is barely jealous at all. (Please note the sarcasm.) "I'm already a star. I already have nine Grammys. Everyone knows I can sing," Knowles said. "I did this because I wanted people to know that I can act and I can play someone...
As we sat down to write this week's Best of the -ists post, a car blaring "21 Questions'" passed by our house. And that started us thinking about how some of the best -ist posts out there have at their hearts questions, some of which are answered, and some of which are left open. Check out the Best of the -ists from this week, and see if you agree. Londonist answers the questions "How much...
We love reading about the mindless acts of people with too much money and free time (otherwise known as celebrities) on the internet when we should be working. And with Beyonce Knowles having a new album out, her PR team is working overtime to keep her in the press.
We learned this morning that some local fans are upset with their hometown hero Beyonce’s new video “Déjà vu.” They’ve even started a petition to have her record company re-shoot the video.
The Style network has a new partner in Houstonian Beyonce Knowles. They’re teaming up to create fall programming that will focus on the clothing line Beyonce has with her mother, Tina Knowles, called House of Dereon:
The dinner was at chic New York restaurant Nobu 57, and that’s where the PETA members confronted Beyonce about wearing fur and using it in the clothing line House of Dereon. They waited until after their orders had been placed, then started firing questions, and even broke out a portable DVD player with footage of minks being killed for fur. The PETA members are said to never have raised their voices, but that didn’t keep them from being escorted out of the restaurant. Beyonce, along with her mom and sister, stayed.

The rumor is now official: Houston's own Destiny's Child is reuniting for a performance of the National Anthem at the NBA All-Star game at the Toyota Center on Feb. 19. That brings up the question: How long do you have to be disbanded before you can really call it a reunion? (They said farewell just last year.) The group also claims that it will be their last performance together,ever. They're young, Houstonist thinks they need to talk to The Eagles and Cher before making that statement.
