Beyonce to give up church-going

Beyonce Knowles has always been a God-fearing young woman, but she now claims that she is so famous that she can't go to church anymore.

The Crazy In Love singer says that whenever she attends a religious service she gets mobbed by fans.

Beyonce told Look magazine: "I can't really go to church anymore, which is a shame. People have come up to me in church during the sermon and, of course, people watch everything I do.

"They come up and take pictures on their mobile phones too. They are very nice, but I think God understands if I miss Sunday service!"

The bootylicious babe also said that she would not deny her recent wedding to Jay-Z took place although she refused to comment further about it.

She explained that she had always chosen to keep her love life private in the belief that it would protect her relationship.
