Celebrity Pay Dirt
Beyonce's Own Melrose Place -- For the Homeless

Singer/actress/designer Beyonce can now add one more title to her resume -- landlord!
Beyonce and Kelly Rowland
While they may not be singing together, former Destiny's Child members Beyonce and Kelly Rowland have reunited -- to open an apartment building for at risk populations in Houston. Can you pay my bills?!

The Knowles-Rowland Temenos Place Apartments will be a 43 unit, single room occupancy housing facility for men and women who are taking steps to improve their lives, after traumatic events of both natural and personal disasters. Save a spot for Britney!

31. This is such positive, wonderful news. But there are celebrites like these girls who have been doing great deeds such as this for years -- but shy away from media attention about their work with good causes. (Talk about character!) I only wish we could hear more stories like these.

Kudos to Bey and Kelly!

32. Beyonce does a lot for Houston - she already has some kind of charity in the Inner Loop, it's a big building off I-45 by the Medical center. And she has participated in many food drives with the pastor of her church. She is a Houstonian we are very proud of!

35. A gift that will keep on giving!!! Kudos Beyonce and Kelly!!

With all of the negative press a lot of other girls are generating, its good to see that these girls seem to have their heads on straight and are trying to make a difference in other peoples lives.

38. Wow! this is really cool, my hat is off to those women! I wish that TMZ would not have used the story of these two terrific ladies to make one of their endless unkind remarks about another performer. It is an uplifting story, and a mean swipe by TMZ has no place in such a great story.

Thank you, Kelly and Beyonce!!!

39. VERY good for them!

This is what these stars SHOULD be doing with their money. Angelina Jolie....take a page from this handbook. Charity starts at home and there are more than PLENTY of adults and kids in the U.S. that could use a helping hand!

KUDOS!

I am not even such a huge fan of either girl, but they now get more of my admiration.

This is what should be happening in this world! *STANDING OVATION*

40. What is wrong with TMZ.. you take a competely selfless act from two celebreties and use it as another opportunity to bash Britney... so sad.. this site is so quick to report anything that makes people look bad and can ruin careers but brushes over anything positive these same people do...

41. These ladies are setting a great example for other young stars/celeb to follow. I think what there doing is GREAT. Way to go ladies. PROUD TO BE A FAN.

42. Wow--how truly wonderful to read about this. I do not follow the music of these ladies, nonetheless, what they are doing is setting a seller example and rekindles my faith in people.

And to the poster who had this to say--" JUST WHAT THOSE PEOPLE NEED....ANOTHER FREE HANDOUT.....MAKE THEM WORK FOR THEIR RENT.....IF YOU KEEP ON GIVING THEY WILL KEEP ON TAKING....."

I sure hope these two are around one day if you happen to be--[ "ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE," sic] who happens to be in of need some help.
