[edit] The Pink Panther

"Woman like Me" was performed in character by Beyoncé Knowles, as Xania, in two scenes of the 2006 film The Pink Panther.[1] The song was written by Charmelle Cofield, Ron Lawrence, and Beyoncé Knowles.[2] The DVD version of the film includes an exclusive complete performance of the song in the special features.[1] The song was recorded in New York City using multitrack recording where Beyoncé harmonized with herself several times over.[1] Three different shots were used from no more than five takes for the visual performance of the song in the film.[1] Like "Check on It", "Woman like Me" was not included on the soundtrack album for The Pink Panther.[3] The song is not commercially available, but it had an Internet leak.
