BEYONCE IS TURNING HER CHART TOPPER INTO SPANISH IRREPLACEABLE

*Getting Beyonce to learn enough Spanish to sing the Latin version of her current chart-topper “Irreplaceable” proved to be a delight for producer/songwriter Rudy Perez, who was hired for the job following his successful stints recording Spanish versions of hits with Christina Aguilera and Il Divo. Perez spoke to Billboard about the challenge:

So she knows that if the phrase is largate, it means "get the hell out of my face." She says it with that same emotion. I worked hard in trying to find the least amount of troubling words
