ok, I didn't know that, let me go and check beyonces songs now
Jackie Chan is an amazing actor... love that he does his own stunts. I was brought up watching martial arts and oriental films as both my dad and brother were black belts in karate and loved everything about the orient. Jackie Chan has always been one of my favourite actors, so glad he has this accolade to his name too!
