Beyonce Donates Movie Salary To Drug Treatment Centers By Danielle Harling
Only weeks after the release of Cadillac Records, actress/singer Beyonce Knowles has decided to donate her entire salary from the movie Cadillac Records to drug treatment centers across the country.
Beyonce donates Cadillac Records movie salary to drug treatment centers throughout the country. Beyonce’s salary, an undisclosed amount, was donated to Phoenix House an organization that has provided treatment and recovery options to men, women, and teens for over forty years. Phoenix House operates in nine states including Texas, California, Florida, and New York.
Several reports have stated that the amount donated was $4 million, but Phoenix House has shared with BET.com that that was not the amount donated although they did confirm that Beyonce did donate her entire salary.
According to Phoenix House’s Vice President of Marketing and Communications, Karen Sodomick Beyonce has been “amazingly generous” to the organization and the Houston native is even working with the organization to start a cosmetology program.
Aside from the donation by Beyonce, Phoenix House has also benefited from the premieres of Cadillac Records.
Starring Cedric The Entertainer, Adrien Brody, Mos Def and more, Cadillac Records details the rise of Chicago based record company Chess Records and its executive Leonard Chess.
In the film, Beyonce plays singer Etta James who was well known for her voice and the heroin addiction that ultimately ended her career.
Before filming began for Cadillac Records, Beyonce visited the Brooklyn branch of Phoenix House to speak with recovering addicts.
“It was hard to go there,” Beyonce told The Los Angeles Times. “In the beginning, I didn’t want to offend anyone, I didn’t want to ask the wrong questions or seem judgmental. They were so honest, tough, and I am so thankful. I don’t think I could’ve understood the level of pain or need. What they do there is amazing.”
Cadillac Records was released in theatres on December 5.
It opened today!
BEYONCE will be in Brooklyn this Friday to cut the ribbon on a very special project -- the Beyonce Cosmetology Center at Phoenix House, a rehab center. Phoenix House runs something called the Career Academy, which is a residential substance abuse treatment program that offers vocational training programs. Beyonce's new venture will allow men and women in treatment to prepare for careers in the cosmetology field after a seven-month training course.

Beyoncé and Tina Knowles are scheduled to speak at the opening of the Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at the Phoenix House Career Academy, 50 Jay Street.

She is married to Brooklyn rap legend Jay-Z.

Superstar and cultural icon Beyonce, ended her 2009 "I AM…" World Tour...
NEW YORK, March 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Superstar and cultural icon Beyonce, ended her 2009 "I AM…" World Tour with a sensational live concert in the Caribbean on the island of Trinidad on February 18, 2010. The "I AM…" World Tour launched in Edmondton, Canada on March 29, 2009 and spanned across Europe including stops in Austria, Spain and The United Kingdom.
Beyonce's first of four sold-out shows at London's 20,000-seat O2 Arena, Europe's largest in-door concert venue, inspired the Telegraph.co.uk to headline its review: "Beyonce Knowles raised the bar for what can be done in an arena show at the O2."
The North American leg of the "I AM…" World Tour kicked off in New York's famed Madison Square Garden on June 21, 2009 and came to a close with a sold-out four-night residency at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas on August 2. During this stint, the powerhouse filmed her "I AM…YOURS An Intimate Performance At Wynn Las Vegas" DVD, which later went on to become the number one music DVD in the country. The ABC Television Network aired an edited version of the DVD as a Thanksgiving Night one-hour special.
During the North American leg of the "I AM..." World Tour, Beyonce co-sponsored food drives as part of a Show Your Helping Hand™ initiative, a national hunger relief campaign created by General Mills' Hamburger Helper® in partnership with Beyonce and her Survivor Foundation. The campaign goal was to help Feeding America deliver more than 3.5 million meals to local food banks.
Upon the completion of several tour dates in Australia, Beyonce was honored with the coveted Billboard Woman of The Year Award at a ceremony held in New York City on October 2, 2009. The "I AM…" World Tour continued with shows in Japan and additional dates in The United Kingdom, including two sold-out shows in Ireland at Dublin's O2 Arena, before concluding in South America and the Caribbean. The "I AM…" World Tour which critics have called "spectacular" and "dazzling" was also named the world's #1 concert attraction by Billboard Magazine's Hot Tour rankings.
Last month, Beyonce broke the record for most Grammy® wins by a female artist in a single year taking home six awards, including "Song of the Year" (for "Single Ladies"). The wins brought her career Grammy® total up to 16 (13 as a solo artist and 3 with Destiny's Child.)
According to The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), Beyonce is the artist with the most total certifications over the past decade, with a total of 64. The certifications include cumulative album, digital song, master ringtone, and music video certifications. Beyonce also has the most master ringtone certifications for a female solo artist with 19 and the highest certified master ringtone for a female artist with "Irreplaceable" at 3x multi-Platinum. She received her very first Gold album award for her Grammy® Award winning debut solo album, "Dangerously in Love" on July 29, 2003. "Dangerously in Love" is currently 4x multi-Platinum.
