Beyonce Gives Ethiopia an Helping Hand
Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Beyonce is overseas, just getting into her world tour and made a very important visit to Ethiopia, which is celebrating its 2000th Birthday. Despite the country's lack of love for Western music, about 5,000 fans showed up for the Millennium Bash and was welcomed with a massive applause. Both the Black Eyed Peas, who performed last months, and her opening act, Ludacris, were met with a luke warm reception.
I want to thank you," the R&B star told the screaming crowd Saturday evening in return. "You have been one of the best audiences of my lifetime."

In a country where many women wear simple white, cotton dresses, Beyonce wore costumes covered in sequins or shiny, space-age material, from a modern interpretation of a hula girl with shiny black tendrils replacing the grass skirt to a high-necked Victorian-style top paired with sequined hotpants.
