The gorgeous stars have revealed they are set to star in the sexy Victorian drama "Tipping The Velvet." Eva, 31, said, "Yes it's true. We are talking about doing the movie together. It's such a wonderful novel, a beautiful love story." Director Sofia Coppola is hoping to bring Sarah Water's novel about sexual repression to the big screen and is anxious for Beyonce and Eva to take the roles of 1890s music hall star Kitty Butler, and her lesbian lover Nan Astley. Beyonce, 25, thinks it is time the world was treated to a classic lesbian love story. The singer, who was speaking at a New York benefit for ovarian cancer, said, "We've had 'Brokeback Mountain' so the time is right for this divine novel to get the same treatment."
