Beyonce to star in new movie, to act as a South African slave


Beyonce has reportedly hired a team to help her work on a gritty movie in order to win her first Oscar Academy award.

The ‘Single Ladies’ hitmaker is looking to tell the story of a slave woman, Saartjie Baartman, who was exhibited in London freak shows because of the size of her bum.

Baartman was a South Africa slave who died at the age of 25 after being sold to a Scottish doctor in 1800s. The doctor was responsible for placing her on a London show because of the shape of her body.

Her stage name was Hottenot Venus. She went to court after it was argued that she had been made to perform against her will by her master, but eventually claimed she performed on her own free will.

Meanwhile, The Sun reported that Beyonce who still feels her breakthrough role in the Hollywood movie industry is yet to come, will star in the film.

Beyonce has starred in several movies including the award-winning Dream Girls, Austin Powers, and Obsessed.
