Ok, that might be taking it a bit far. But Beyonce could be set to lose a huge amount of money - she's being sued for $100 million. And it doesn't take an online currency converter thingy to work out that that is a lot of money.
The lawsuit is being filed by a video game company, who claim that Beyonce 'abandoned' a project to make a dance game back in April. Now no-one knows exactly how many months pregnant Beyonce is, but to be fair - this could have been around the time that she was busy trying for a baby, so she might have just been a bit too tired for dancing. Just making the point.
But the company, Gate Five, says that Beyonce ditched the project - which would have been called Starpower: Beyonce and frankly sounds amazing - after making 'extortionate' demands for money. The company say Beyonce cost them $7 million, and they had to lay off 70 staff because of it.
Beyonce dancing: not in a video game though, but on her ITV show
They accused Beyonce of "a breach of contract so callous that, on what appeared to be a whim, she destroyed Gate Five's business and drove 70 people into unemployment, the week before Christmas."
Woah, if this is true, it kind of makes Beyonce the new Scrooge, which is not something we ever saw coming. But Beyonce is totally refuting these claims, arguing that she was within her rights to ditch the project, because the company hadn't met their deadline to get the money for it.
The shoes match the nails. That's how famous she is
She was originally sued by Gate Five in April, but had hoped the whole thing would be dropped. If she was hoping they'd forget about her though, that whole 'being famous' thing was always going to be a problem. She's also going to struggle to keep a low profile now that she's heavily pregnant with Jay-Z's baby. Tricky.
No-one can be too mean to her - look how bloomin' pregnant she is
But Beyonce doesn't seem too worried. In fact, she was out with her mum Tina having her nails done (blue, if you're interested - it matched her shoes) yesterday, looking pretty happy and lawsuit-worry free (it's a specific expression, but easy to spot to the trained eye).
We'll update you as soon as any developments happen. And keep our fingers crossed that the baby doesn't have to live in Harper Seven's Hollywood cast-offs.
