(EUR) – Beyoncé’s new DVD/CD remix package, titled “Above and Beyoncé Video Collection and Dance Mixes,” is due to hit Walmart stores nationwide on June 16.
The DVD includes seven music videos including “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It).” The remix disc, featuring seven songs, will include Beyonce’s collaboration with Kanye West on “Ego.”
“The song is fun,” Beyoncé tells People. “It talks about someone being very confident and having this swagger when they walk and when they talk,” says the singer.
It’s no coincidence that West was recruited for that particular song. Recounting her conversation with him, Beyoncé says he agreed to do it, telling her, “‘Okay, so you have a song about an ego and you want me on the record?’ He’s like, ‘I love it. I’ll do it.’“
In other Bey news, word of her current lessons in car racing for an upcoming video has reached Danica Patrick, the first woman to ever win an Indy car race.
“I want to help her out!” Patrick told the New York Daily News. “She’s a ‘conquer all’ kind of woman, and I’m sure she’ll be great.”
Patrick has already worked with Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z by commanding a $350,000 Pagani Zonda Roadster in his video for “Show Me What You Got.”
“The theme was that the girls kept winning, beating the guys at everything,” Patrick said of the clip. “I zoomed in front of Jay-Z’s car. It was exactly my kind of video.”
In still more Beyonce news, the artist tells Self magazine that she struggles hard to keep her weight in check.
“I’m not one of those people who doesn’t have to work at it,” the 27-year-old tells the June issue. “I can’t eat what I want, and I can’t not go to the gym.”
“To me, it’s sexier when it doesn’t look like you go to the gym,” she adds. “If you look like you’ve been spending a lot of time in the gym, then it just looks like you spend a lot of time in the gym. So I never want to get to that point where it’s not natural. I think it’s important to feel like a woman, as well as look like a woman.”
“I feel best when I’m not really thin and not really heavy, like now, when I’m still curvy,” she tells Self. “I really believe that everyone is supposed to be different, and whatever is a natural weight for you is usually what looks best.”
