She already has quite the profile as a kick-ass MUA. But Dubliner Megan Burke is a woman of many talents, because she is also the MOST amazing singer. 

In fact, she has over the last couple of years compiled some pretty expert renditions of a load of hit songs, including Christina Aguliera's Fighter, James Brown's I Feel Good, and Maroon5's Sunday Morning.

And now, Megan has teamed-up with her sister, Sallyanne, to record a stunning selection of Beyonce's hits.  

Posting the video to the Megan Burke Facebook page, it has already notched up some 55K views. 

"So myself and my sister decided to do a video together," the makeup artist wrote in the accompanying caption. "We obviously wanted to sing our favourite Beyonce songs."

During the five-minute long clip, the Swords-based duo nod to the likes of Crazy In Love, Soldier, and Hailo

Let's be honest – one of the biggest moments in X Factor history was the duet between Beyoncé and Alexandra Burke back in 2008.

Between Bey's vocals and Alexandra's hilarious bawl-face, it was definitely a moment to remember…. but for all the wrong reasons for the lads from JLS.

According to a recent interview, the act, which went head to head against Alexandra before she was ultimately crowed the winner, were furious that their fellow contetant was paired with an international superstar in the finale.

Reflecting on the atmosphere backstage at the time, Aston Merrygold said: "I was baffled. I was so baffled. At the time, I was 19 and I was absolutely fuming – behind closed doors I was fuming. Like, Beyoncé – are you kidding?!"

Speaking on BUILD Series LDN, he continued: "I was fuming. Listen, Westlife were amazing at the time and we had one of the biggest songs ever, but we were like, ‘How’s she got Beyoncé?"

“No disrespect to Westlife at all, but we were like, ‘Why didn’t we get Beyoncé?’" he admitted.

Why aren't we surprised?!

It's safe to say we all want to feel like Beyonce every single day. It just seems like she can get way more things done in a day than any of us can… amirite?

So, you'll be delighted to know that you can look a little like Queen Bey on Christmas day this year.

The singer has just debuted her new festive hoodie which reads "I SLEIGH ALL DAY."

We can just imagine ourselves after a few glasses of Prosecco at Christmas dinner, singing our hearts out to Formation in this.

Beyoncé's popular Ivy Park sportswear line recently dropped its Autumn/Winter collection, and who better to show off the new threads than the woman herself? 

The 35-year-old opted to model her new line in a series of recently released photos. 

Posing over a floor mounted mirror, Queen Bey modelled various pieces of the collection, including new crop tops, leggings and jackets.

The images show the singer trying a series of yoga poses and stretches.

"I think having a child and growing older made me get more into health and fitness," the star told Elle.

"I realised that there wasn't really an athletic brand for women like myself or my dancers or friends. Nothing aspirational for girls like my daughter."

"I was so specific about the things I feel I need in a garment as a curvy woman, and just as a woman in general, so you feel safe and covered but also sexy."

"Everything lifts and sucks in your waist and enhances the female form," she said.

The Ivy Park line has faced some controversy since its launch, with the athletic wear brands factories being likened to "sweat shops."

Ivy Park vehemently denied the allegations at the time. The new collection is available now from Topshop.

Earlier this week, Kanye West surprised fans in San Jose by admitting during a 40 minute rant that he supported Donald Trump in the US presidential election.

Unfortunately Ye’s ramblings didn’t end there, as last night the rapper criticised Hollywood’s most untouchable power couple before storming off his own stage in Sacramento, California.

After arriving one and a half hours late and performing just three songs, the Famous creator interrupted his Saint Pablo tour to condemn Beyoncé and Jay Z in another bizarre speech.

“This is a moment in the Matrix, bro,” he began.  “Beyoncé, I was hurt! ‘Cause I heard that you said you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year over me, and over Hotline Bling.”

“In my opinion – now, don't go tryin’ to diss Beyoncé, she is great.  Taylor Swift is great.  We are all great people, we are all equal.  But sometimes, we be playin’ the politics too much and forgettin’ who we are – just to win.  F*ck winning!  F*ck lookin’ cool!”

“I've been sent here to give y’all my truth,” he continued.  “Even at the risk of my own life, even at the risk of my own success, my own career.  I've been sent here to give y’all the truth.”

“Jay Z, call me, bruh!  You still ain’t call me!  Jay Z, call me!  Jay Z, I know you got killers, please don't send them at my head.  Just call me!  Talk to me like a man!”

The father of two then turned on Hillary Clinton and the radio industry before declaring “I’m on my Trump sh*t tonight”.

Don’t worry, it makes no sense to us either!

We all know there's nothing better than sitting back with your girls and having a few sips of prosecco at brunch. But imagine having those few glasses while bobbing along to Love on Top.

When it comes to celebrity feuds, there are some we just never expected to see, and one involving Tina Knowles and Stacey Dash is most definitely one of them.

In your bizarre news of the day, Beyoncé's mum has become embroiled in a war of words with 49-year-old Stacey who played Dionne in Clueless.

Yeah, we know.

It all kicked off when Tina took to Instagram to share a photo of herself posing alongside Kelly Rowland dressed as Stacey's character in the smash-hit 90s film.

Appearing to throw shade at Stacey, Tina wrote: "This is my baby as Dione last night of course she is prettier and more smart than the one from the movie but I was confused cause she kept saying something about her pager." (sic)

Unsurprisingly, the tabloids threw themselves on the post and wasted no time suggesting that Tina was referring to Stacey herself as opposed to the character she played in the film.

Responding to the controversy, Stacey took to Twitter to address the issue, tweeting: "Beyonce's mom just threw some shade at me? Here's my unedited response."

Directing fans and followers to her blog, the Fox News correspondent wrote: "Well, you never know what you are doing to wake up to, do you? This morning, I awakened to people telling me that Beyonce’s mom was saying that I was ugly."

Sharing a screenshot of Tina's post, it sounded like Stacey was pretty certain the comment was aimed at her personally.

"First of all, if you’re trying to throw shade about someone’s intelligence, maybe use “smarter” instead of “more smart." Stacey wrote. "Here’s the thing  – Kelly Rowland is a beautiful girl and I love the costume!  Imitation is the best form of flattery."

Slamming Stacey for taking the remark personally, one of the star's followers replied: "Oh, honey… keep reaching for that relevance… someone may actually give a sh*t, someday."

"It was obvious she was talking about the character. SMH," added another.

And if the whole thing wasn't cringey enough, it looks like Tina got wind of the controversy and edited her post, writing:"Lord no shade intended!!!! It was a character in a movie!!"

Well frankly, this is all just so embarrassing.

While Queen Bey has most of us eating out of the palm of her hand. the Drunk in Love singer has yet to win over a particular section of society if her recent performance at the Country Music Awards is anything to go by.

Having performed alongside the Dixie Chicks at the annual award ceremony this week, the Grammy Award winner was subject to criticism on social media from county fans who questioned the organisers' choice of performer.

With the Dixie Chicks having previously criticised former US President George Bush, the band's patriotism was the subject of much debate online while Beyoncé's stance on police brutality also came under fire.

"You're going to have Beyonce there!! Such a racist little witch, hates police, hates white people," wrote one CMA viewer. "Give me a break, this is absolutely the lowest of the low."

"Disgusting and very disappointing that country music would stoop so low and desperate," added another.

"All she's going to do is promote her devil worshipping rituals and summon demons and create more problems with the nonsense racial hate and division."

Following the fall-out from Beyoncé's appearance, fans of the star suggested organisers had removed all promotion relating to Bey's performance – an allegation the CMA's have strenuously denied.

"CMA has not erased any mentions of Beyonce’s performance on the CMA Awards, Beyonce’s performance with Dixie Chicks was a highlight of the evening and we are continuing to share the amazing full-length performance clip via our official social channel," a spokesperson confirmed.

While our own mothers bet us into bin liners and didn't even consider taking part in Halloween festivities, the same can't be said for the Knowles / Carter clan.

In a move which has us wishing our mams and grannies had gotten dickied up alongside us back in the day, Beyoncé has shared footage of the prep which went into their family Halloween.

Opting to go as 90s rapper Salt-N-Pepa, Beyonce, her mum Tina, her daughter Blue Ivy and her husband Jay-Z gave us all serious family goals by taking the theme and running with it.

From the oversized shell jackets and the skin-tight lycra leggings to the gold jewellery and accompanying fanny-packs, Bey and the crew put the rest of us to shame.

"They killed it as usual," wrote one fan after checking out Bey's Halloween montage which was  – unsurprisingly – accompanied by Salt-N-Pepa's Push It.

"My fave family… Love u guys till infinity," added another.

Jeez mam, a little imagination wouldn't have gone astray back in our day.

Look, we'd be lying if we said we ever thought Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian were the best of friends, but we assumed there was an adequate level of warmth between the pair.

Well, it turns out we assumed wrongly.

With their husbands having worked alongside each other for years, it was inevitable that Beyoncé and Kim would have to share a drink, dinner or front row from time to time, but as far as Beyoncé was concerned the relationship was purely circumstantial.

In the wake of Kanye's rant against her husband, word has gotten out that there's no love lost between Beyoncé and Ye's wife either.

Speaking to Page Six, a source close to the Drunk in Love singer said: "Beyonce has never genuinely liked Kim."

"She’s mostly tolerated her because of their husbands’ friendship and their mutual friends, like Jennifer Lopez. She is always a little icy to Kim."

In a toe-curling description of the pair's dynamic, the insider added: "The last time they hung out, the minute Beyonce could leave the conversation, she did. They always have lots of awkward pauses. when they speak."

We're guessing Queen Bey is secretly thrilled Ye went off on Jay if it means she can permanently cut ties with the Kardashian-Wests.

You don't mess with Queen Bey.

Whether you're Becky with the good hair or Kanye with the woeful fashion line, we all know that Beyoncé and her family are off-limits.

Unfortunately for the Life of Pablo singer, he never got the memo, and has in turn made a serious enemy of the Drunk In Love singer.

After calling Jay Z out on his lack of concern following Kim Kardashian's assault in Paris, Beyoncé has reminded Ye it's often worth keeping issues like this to yourself.

Reflecting on Jay Z's reaction to his family's upset during a concert in Seatlle this week, Kanye said: "You wanna know how I’m feelin'? Come by the house."

"Bring the kids by the house. Like we’re brothers. Let’s sit down," Kanye raged. "I can’t take this sh*t bro. Our kids have never even played together."

According to a source close to Beyoncé, the singer is not happy, saying: "Beyonce is frustrated and disappointed in Kanye for calling them out like this."

"They’ve been friends with Kanye for a long, long time, if he has issues with them, he can call them up and they can talk about it in private," the insider continued.

"She thinks he should be home taking care of Kim, not putting his energy into this kind of childish negativity. After all the pain and suffering the Paris robbery caused, Bey really doesn’t think the world needs them feuding."

Taylor Swift can rest easy – we can't see Kanye demanding awards in Beyonce's honour after this…

Beyoncé and Solange Knowles have become the first sisters in the world to both have number one albums.

The famous duo broke a new world record this week when Solange’s latest album, A Seat at the Table, took the Billboard Top 200 chart’s top spot.

After selling 72,000 copies in the first week, the work quickly became Bey’s little sister’s first No.1 album and in doing so allowed the Knowles’ to join Michael and Janet Jackson and Master P and Silkk The Shocker as the only siblings in the world to get their albums to the top of the charts.

Last week Queen B took to Instagram to congratulate 30-year-old Solange on the release of her new music.

The 35-year-old Texan wrote: “Congrats to my sister on creating this beautiful work of art.  I could not be more proud of you.”

Six of Beyoncé’s albums have already achieved chart-topping success.
