Obsessed Is #1!!!


I can honestly say, I did NOT see this coming. Not with Beyonce, Idris, and Ali going up against Jamie Foxx & Robert Downing Jr's, The Soloist!


Obsessed is #1 in the box office this weekend and becomes the biggest opening ever for a last-week-of-April release, beating previous record holder "Mean Girls" ($24.4M).


It also gives Beyonce the best opening of her career as an above-the-title star, topping 2003's "The Fighting Temptations" ($11.7M) and "Cadillac Records" ($3.4M) from late 2008.

Sony/Screen Gems sent out a Twitter "tweet" on Sunday that said the $28.5 million opening weekend for their Beyonce film "Obsessed" is the second biggest opening in the studio's history.
