Last week, pop superstar Beyonce caused quite a bit of controversy when racy commercials for her popular fragrance Heat where banned for daytime viewing in the U.K. due to suggestive images of the singer. However, according to the 29 year old Houston native, who stopped by The View with her mother Tina on Monday (November 22), the ban turned out to be a blessing in disguise.“I think it was very good,” Beyonce told the panel. “Because a lot of people went and watched the commercial,” she said. “And it upped my sales.” She also had a laugh at the expense of the ever-present wind machine that seems to follow her everywhere, explaining why she uses it in the first place.
“Where's the wind coming from? It started out only [to stay cool], and then it kind of created this effect with my hair,” she said. “You can only imagine. The show is two and a half hours. It's really, really warm onstage.”
Later in the interview, Beyonce also revealed that husband Jay-Z will appear on her I Am…World Tour, her concert special that premieres Thursday night (November 25) on ABC at 9:30 p.m. EST.
“We talked about it; we knew he was in town,” she said, later explaining how shocked the crowd was to see the Brooklyn-based rapper join her onstage. “Kanye, as well. He was in town that night.”
In addition to her fragrance line and unstoppable singing career, the pop star keeps busy with her clothing line House Of Dereon. Earlier this year, Forbes magazine even named the singer among their top ten most powerful women in the world alongside fellow singer Lady Gaga and First Lady Michelle Obama.
