Bootylicious Beyonce has
reportedly hired a team to help her work on a gritty movie in order to
win her first Oscar Academy award.
The ‘Single
Ladies’ hitmaker is looking to tell the story of a slave woman, Saartjie
Baartman, who was exhibited in London freak shows because of the size
of her bum.
Baartman was a South Africa slave who
died at the age of 25 after being sold to a Scottish doctor in 1800s.
The doctor was responsible for placing her on a London show because of
the shape of her body.
Her stage name was
Hottenot Venus. She went to court after it was argued that she had been
made to perform against her will by her master, but eventually claimed
she performed on her own free will.
Meanwhile, The
Sun reported that Beyonce who still feels her breakthrough role in the
Hollywood movie industry is yet to come, will star in the film.
A Hollywood source told The Sun: “Beyonce
is desperate to be taken seriously as an actress. Even though she's had
a string of well-received movies, she still feels her breakthrough is
yet to come.”
Beyonce has starred in several movies including the award-winning Dream Girls, Austin Powers, and Obsessed.
