Fans are obsessed with Beyonce Knowles!
Her new Fatal Attraction-style thriller, Obsessed, dominated the weekend box office with $28.5 million in ticket sales, well over what studio execs predicted.
The movie also stars The Office's Idris Elba, who plays Knowles' husband in an ideal marriage that is shattered after a psychotic coworker (played by Heroes' Ali Larter) begins some serious stalking.
The film, which was projected to open in the high teens, is Knowles' top-grossing debut since her own film debut in Austin Powers in Goldmember.
Zac Efron's 17 Again and Channing Tatum's Fighting were neck-and-neck for the No. 2 spot, with Efron's comedy taking in $11.7 million after debuting as the top movie last week - for a 10-day total of $40 million. Fighting, also starring Terrence Howard, brought in $11.4 million in its opening weekend.
The Soloist, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx, opened at No. 4 with $9.7 million.
