Beyonce takes French lessons

Beyonce Knowles is taking French lessons in preparation for buying a home in the south of France.

The singer has even bought some language CDs to play in her car before she splashes out on a house with fiance Jay-Z.

A source told the Daily Star, "The south of France is special to her because that's where she and Jay-Z have spent some of their most romantic times together. Beyonce thinks French is so sexy and wants to speak basic French by the time they settle on a place."
