Music World Music/Columbia Records will release "I AM...YOURS An Intimate Performance At Wynn Las Vegas" -- a concert performance DVD and Live CD that captures a never-before-seen performance from iconic artist, Beyonce on Monday, November 23.

YOURS An Intimate Performance At Wynn Las Vegas" is Beyonce's first live CD and fans can also consider the release a greatest hits collection.
Recorded on August 2, 2009 during a sold out four-night stint at the Encore Theater in Las Vegas, "I AM... YOURS An Intimate Performance At Wynn Las Vegas," will be available on DVD (amaray) and Deluxe Edition 2 CD/DVD (digipack) on November 23 and Blu-ray on December 15.
Also available on Monday, November 23 is the "I AM...SASHA FIERCE" Deluxe Edition which will feature five number one hits and two bonus tracks which include "Video Phone (Extended Remix)," featuring Billboard magazine's Rising Star for 2009, Lady Gaga. MTV will exclusively world premiere the music video for "Video Phone" on-air and online on Thursday, November 5. "Video Phone" will premiere in the US on MTV and MTV.com at 5:30 PM/EST while MTV channels across the globe will premiere the music video in 162 countries following the airing of the MTV Europe Music Awards from Berlin.
According to Billboard magazine, the "Video Phone" debut on the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop chart makes "I AM...SASHA FIERCE" the first album in a decade to yield six entries which include "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)", "If I Were A Boy," "Diva," "Halo," "Ego" and "Video Phone". Beyonce also extended her current lead to 13, for most top 10's on the Hot 100 Billboard chart by a female artist this decade when "Sweet Dreams" entered the chart at number eight.
On Thanksgiving night, November 26, the ABC Network will air the one-hour television special, "Beyonce-I AM...YOURS." It is the first network special from the superstar. The airing is scheduled for 9:00 PM/EST.
Before wrapping up her 2009 "I AM..." World tour, which recently included dates in Japan, China, and Korea, Beyonce will head to The United Kingdom this month for several performances, including three nights at the renowned O2 Arena in London. On October 2, Beyonce was honored as Billboard magazine's Woman of the Year at a luncheon held in New York City. The Woman of The Year honor comes fresh off the heels of the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards where Beyonce received a staggering nine nominations and walked home with the biggest award of the evening, Video of The Year for "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)."
