Although Beyonce Knowles may already don the title of Queen B, Billboard is making it official, awarding the superstar with 2011's Billboard Millennium Award.

Knowles, who has been topping Billboard's charts since 2003, will be honored May 22 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, hosted by funny man, Ken Jeong. Her influence on the industry as a Sasha Fierce performer, actress and producer has cast her as a true living legend -- only magnified by her union with equally influential music master, Jay Z.

The 'Single Ladies' singer will also be celebrated by her peers, Cee Lo Green, Nicki Minaj, Pitbull, The Black Eyed Peas, Rihanna, Keith Urban, Lady Antebellum and Taio Cruz who will all perform in salute to the diva.
Born and bred as a founding force behind Destiny's Child, she had us all saying her name before she went solo. From there, Knowles has gone on to win 16 Grammy Awards and shattered Billboard records with hits like, 'Beautiful Liar.'

It's no doubt that Knowles knows how to 'Run The World (Girls)' and her fourth studio album, set for release later this year, will continue to lead her from Destiny to reality.

I thought Kim's name is "The Queen Bee," right? Either way, while Beyonce is one of the greats, and Kim was alright as a FemC, neither one of them are queens of anything. In their respective genres, those titles are currently owned by others, lol.

I wonder how much she paid for that?

You're joking, right?

Billboard Millennium Award?!?

Isn't this the kind of award that you give to people like Michael Jackson, Madonna, OR Mariah Carey? Seriously, WTF has Beyonce ever done to get an award like THIS so early in her career?

I wanted to look it up but the closest thing I found was Billboard century award, artist of the decade award. Must be something new? Who cares anyway it was voted by fans lol I personally don't think these awards are credible. [Edited 5/9/11 20:23pm]

Right, There not credible at all and havent been for over 20 decades now...They give these awards out just for ratings.

This girl is overrated to above and beyond to the point it is just funny now LOL

Beyonce has the best career money can buy.

Why not? She's Beysus, she walks on water, might as well.

Somebody will jump and say she can, and will also split the Nile in a good day.

Guess they are desperate to give anyone the mj treatment

When did Beyonce start writing press releases?

CAm I the only one fatigued of the bleached blond look on everybody, their mama, cat, and ddog? This looks like the same hair as those 40 year old botoxed broads on Real Housewives oof Ocean County.

She better try to get some type of award about the same time of her release, because her Run The World ship has sunk.

Its going to be interesting to see how they handle the lackluster response to the first single. I don't think the release of the video will help much either. This single has the potential to be the most brief cycle of her career. I anticipate a new "leak" radio single shortly after it debut. Maybe a week or two after its release.

They may be recalibrating her entire album now due to such a weak response. Christina Aguilera, Ne-yo, and others last year ran away from their projects at record pace. Well see how this works out with Mrs. Carter...

I'm still shocked that they chose such a whack song for the first single.I don't like Beyonce's music,but I'm pretty sure there has to be some better tracks on her album.

They probably thought they were being "edgy" as a way of competing with her contemporaries. As always with her, she tries to hard. Subtlety is not in her vocabulary . We'll see what else they got. I'm sure they're nervous, right about now...
