Beyonce Is Tardy
The master of Beyonce's new album was due to her record label today, and it looks like Jay-Z's wifey isn't going to make her deadline. "It's not going to be completed," a source says. "She's got to get it out early in the fourth quarter, when there's so much competition among artists."
