The Dreamgirls become cover girls....


There has been some grumblings about how celebrities are replacing models on the covers of various national magazines. I say, hooray! Why not feature beautiful women who can do more than walk down a runway? Two of the best examples are two of the "it" girls of the moment: Beyonce Knowles and Jennifer Hudson who are currently gracing the covers of "Sports Illustrated" and "Vogue," respectively.
Both are riding high: Beyonce knocked "Listen" out of the park when she performed at last weekend's Grammy Awards and Jennifer is still the favorite to walk away with the Academy Award next Sunday for best supporting actress.
On top of all that, their wonderful movie, "Dreamgirls," is poised to cross the $100 million mark at the domestic box office sometime over the Presidents Day weekend!

Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
