Beyonce’s legs rule in “Run the World (Girls)” video. The hotly-anticipated promo debuted during American Idol Wednesday. Did you catch it? The Mad Max-y video was filmed by Water for Elephants director Francis Lawrence over three days in Los Angeles and the Mojave Desert, and features more than 200 dancers and exotic animals. We haven’t been this excited about a pop star’s dance moves since the premiere of “Single Ladies.”
Beyonce really does have a new album on the way and now it has a name.

Hip-shaking R&B star Beyonce Knowles-Carter will be awarded with the Millennium Award at the 2011 Billboard Awards this month. Queen B will be on hand to receive the prize during the May 22 event at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, PopEater.com said Monday.
Singing superstar Beyonce is getting in touch with her patriotic side. The Houston native — set to release her fourth solo album this summer — has recorded a cover of “God Bless the USA” that will benefit charity once it goes on sale via iTunes on Friday.
