The stars of Dreamgirls stopped by The Oprah Winfrey Show. Beyonce performed “Listen” from the movie’s soundtrack. Before singing, Beyonce introduced the song: “”This is the moment where Deena finally finds her voice. The whole movie she’s been manipulated and she’s kind of lost her own opinions. I think a lot of women can relate to the lyrics.”

Meanwhile, Beyonce Knowles has hailed her Dreamgirls director Bill Condon as a contender for the 2007 Academy Awards.

 

The former Destiny’s Child star credits Condon for giving her her first “real acting role” after supporting performances in Austin Powers In Goldmember and The Fighting Temptations.

Even though the film isn’t released in America until next month, the Oscar rumours have been circling Knowles and her co-star Jamie Foxx for several months. However, modest Knowles says, “If anyone gets an Oscar for this movie it’ll be the director. “I don’t know about my chances, but I hope I’ll be in the audience when he wins an Oscar.”

The cast: Beyonce (Deena Jones), Jamie Foxx (Curtis Taylor Jr.), Jennifer Hudson (Effie White), Anika Noni Rose (Lorrell Robinson), and Eddie Murphy (James ‘Thunder’ Early).
