Beyonce Gets Animated: 'Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!'

"Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!" No, that's not Beyonce's new catch-phrase, it's the name of Nickelodeon's hit animated pre-school comedy, and the Grammy winner is lending her voice to show! Click on our exclusive video to catch Beyonce in action with her new character…



In a special week-long celebration running at 10 a.m. (ET/PT) Monday through Thursday, April 27-30, Beyonce plays Shine, the lead singer of The Wubb Girlz -- the hottest girl group around. The appearance marks her voiceover debut and first-ever children's project.

"I'm so happy to be a part of 'Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!' because I'm finally able to impress my nephew," says Beyonce. "I can identify with [Shine] having grown up in Destiny's Child. The Wubb Girlz are all about unity -- they sing cool harmonies and have an amazing new original song, 'Sing a Song.'" Beyonce composed and performs "Sing a Song," which will be available on iTunes and other digital outlets on April 21. After four music-filled episodes, the week culminates with an hour-long "Wubb Idol" movie on Friday at 1 p.m. (ET/PT).

"Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!" helps pre-schoolers develop social skills like sharing, listening, and helping others through the daily adventures and challenges of the animated characters Wubbzy, Daizy, Widget and Walden.
