Famous singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, dancer, and model Beyonce Giselle Knowles, better known as Beyonce, was born September 4th, 1981, in Houston, Texas. She was raised by both her mother Tina Knowles and father Mathew Knowles. Included in her household were her two sisters who go by the names of Solange Knowles and Bianca Knowles.

Beyonce attended St. Mary’s Elementary School, Parker Elementary School, Elsik Middle School, and Kinder High School for the performing and visual arts.

Before Beyonce became who she is today, she used to work in her mother’s hair salon to help her mother out. She currently still lives in Houston, Texas, at the age of 42 years old with her two daughters. Their names are Blue Ivy and Rumi, along with her son Sir and her husband, famous singer and rapper Jay-Z.

Although Beyonce is very well known, there are some things some people don’t know about her. For example, she didn’t go to college, she’s named after her mother, and lastly, she has at least 31 movies out including her new movie Renaissance, out Friday, December 1st, 2023.

When you are famous you also become inspiring to others, which is the reason I chose her. So here are some of her famous quotes that I find inspiring: “If everything was perfect, you would never learn and you would never grow.”  “Never let success go to your head, never let failure get to your heart.”
