At the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, beyoncé, 39, swept the scene and took away 4 trophies. To date, she has won 28 Grammys, the most of any female singer.
From the age of 9 to the age of 9, Beyoncé can be said to have been debuting for 30 years, and is truly worthy of the word "top stream" of the world's diva, with fans all over the world.
When Obama was elected president, he invited her to be a guest singer at the inauguration; Prince Harry sweated nervously when he saw her; and India's richest married woman spent $130 million just to invite her to the wedding to sing a few songs.
Overnight popularity requires luck.
But to be popular for decades or even a lifetime, in addition to luck and strength, you also need self-love.

Beyoncé' full name is Beyoncé Giselle North, born on September 4, 1981 in Houston, Texas, USA.
The name Beyoncé comes from her mother's maiden name, Beylons, whose mother, Tina North, was a successful hair stylist and fashion designer with her own hair salon, elegant and atmospheric, and Beyoncé inherited her mother's beauty.
Beyoncé's passion and dedication to her career came from the cultivation of her father, Matthew North. Matthew was a successful medical device salesman with a brilliant vision and excellent business acumen.
When she was a child, Beyoncé was a quiet and shy little girl, but she liked to sing, as long as she sang like a changed person, as long as relatives and friends came to the house, Beyoncé would perform for everyone.
When Beyoncé was 7 years old, her parents took her to participate in a draft singing contest for primary and secondary school students, and as a result, Beyoncé on the stage shocked everyone on the scene, including her parents.
Beyoncé said that in her body, there lived two girls, one was the shy and shy Beyoncé in life, and the other was sasha Firth, who was charming on stage.
This is the name Beyoncé gave herself on stage, and in 2008 she released an album called "I am Sasha Fierce" to introduce this "girl" who loves music.
In the eyes of relatives, Beyoncé was different from other children when she was a child, and while other children were still fiddling with their toys, Beyoncé was focused on her goals, and she knew exactly what she had to do.
Her mother, Tina, bought her many albums and trained her to sing and dance in all directions.
Beyoncé once said:
My parents did teach me the value of education, how to be authentic in my actions, how to celebrate individuality, and the importance of investing in myself.
Arguably, without the support of her father and mother, Beyoncé may not be able to focus on chasing her dreams.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15">02.</h1>
After participating in the draft competition at the age of 7, Beyoncé's parents saw the potential of their daughter and fully supported her to participate in various singing competitions, and Beyoncé also lived up to expectations and won many trophies.
In 1990, the first turning point in Beyoncé's life, at the age of 9, she officially embarked on the road of music, forming a girl group With two childhood friends, Girl's Tyme.
For the sake of her daughter's career, Beyoncé's father Matthew resigned, and he became the manager of the girl group, responsible for career development and the daily operation of the band, and later Beyoncé's mother Tina also joined in, responsible for costume styling.
The girls initially performed in bars, clubs and other occasions, even beyoncé's mother Tina's hair salon, and as long as they could show themselves on stage, they would seize the opportunity to show themselves.
Matthew also put the girls on a talent show, but unfortunately they lost to an adult male band, which frustrated the girls and ended the girl group's career.
But Beyoncé soon recovered from such a failure.
When she accepted An invitation from Obama to speak to graduates in 2020, Beyoncé mentioned that in her early career, she had been criticized by others for being "stupid, unattractive, and untalented."
But she never let such negativity and self-doubt be projected onto herself:
I know those moments are painful and will make you miserable, but now is the time to turn these criticisms into fuel and motivation, and then into beautiful beasts, respect is everything, without respect there is no success.
Respect yourself, Beyoncé said, only by respecting yourself can you have a chance to succeed.
In 1993, Beyoncé joined the band True Women of Destiny, a turning point in Beyoncé's musical career, but the process was very bumpy, the members of the band were constantly changing, and only Beyoncé persisted until the end.
It wasn't until late 1997 that The True Girls of Destiny were signed by the big label Columbia Records, and the girls recorded their first song, "Killing Time," which was chosen as an episode of the movie "Men in Black" and made the girls famous.
Columbia hit the iron while it was hot and released the self-titled album of Destiny True Woman a few months later, in which the song "NO NO NO" was a great success, not only to the major charts, but also won three awards.
On the surface, The True Daughter of Destiny has gradually become a well-known girl band in the United States, but behind the stage, various contradictions within the band are divided, and uneven income sharing is the biggest problem, and the members of the band are still constantly changing.
Despite this, Beyoncé, the soul of the band, conquered the United States with this turbulent band, and True Daughter of Destiny sang many classic songs in her sheyday, and won the award.
In 2001, True Destiny was temporarily disbanded, and the members flew solo.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15">03.</h1>
After the dissolution of Destiny True Girl, Beyoncé did not immediately release a solo album, she shifted the focus of her career to acting, and successively filmed the movies "Ace Spy 3" and "Billion Choir".
After two years of filming, Beyoncé finally released her first solo album Dangerous Love in 2003. The album not only topped major charts, sold 11 million copies, and won 5 Grammy Awards.
On this album, there is one song that must be mentioned, that is, "Crazy In Love", which is the first time that Jay-Z was discovered to appear in Beyoncé's world.
But it's not, the two met when they were making Jay-Z's song "'03 Bonnie and Clyde" and hit it off.
Although many people think that they are not right, but love is a wonderful thing, and the person who does not seem to be right is rubbing out the spark of love.
Since then, Jay-Z has not only become Beyoncé's boyfriend, but also her partner, and they often fit together in life and on stage.
But for the media, Beyoncé pays great attention to privacy, she rarely mentions her relationship publicly, and work is still her most important thing.
After the success of their first solo album, Destiny True Girls was launched again, and Beyoncé's sisters joined the band, releasing the album Destiny Come True, which was also a success, but the band officially disbanded after the universal tour.
Subsequently, Beyoncé filmed the film "Dream Girl", which was a great success, and Beyoncé was nominated for a Golden Globe Award.
In 2006, Beyoncé returned to her music world and released her second solo album, which was a hit album. She did not become complacent about it, but continued to compose new music and never stopped.
Beyoncé sets a higher goal for herself whenever she accomplishes something, saying she's a workaholic, there's no word in her dictionary that she can work 24 hours a day.
When asked what the secret of her success was, she always replied: get involved in the work.
She says there may be more failure than victory, but failure can be your best motivation to win bigger.
Beyoncé's cousin said that in his eyes, Beyoncé, after becoming a top diva, was like the little girl he saw in childhood, hoping to be the best she could no matter what she did.
But Beyoncé says that she is not a perfect person, and she will make mistakes, but she is not afraid of mistakes, but will gladly accept them:
In any case, when you feel that you are out of control, or the world is the enemy of you, let this vulnerability inspire you to greatness, this is how I found my true self, I have been improving, this is the beauty of growth.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15">04.</h1>
In 2008, after years of dating, Beyoncé entered the halls of marriage with her boyfriend Jay-Z.
They did not announce the marriage to the public, only invited the parents of both parties, relatives and friends to attend. On the night of the wedding, they held a wedding party in a mansion in New York, and all the guests in attendance were not allowed to bring mobile phones into the venue.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z, in addition to their love of music, also have a business mind.
Long before they got married, they had already invested in a lot of projects, jay-Z set up an agency, signed Rihanna and other popular singers. Tasting the sweetness, he continued to set up a sports star agency, which was also prosperous.
In addition, he also invested in the aviation field and developed app software for booking airplanes, similar to our current taxi software, except that people are high-end versions and book airplanes.
Jay-Z made a lot of money, and Beyoncé was not to be outdone, she and her mother Tina founded her own fashion brand.
Beyoncé took the goods herself, from clothing to perfumes, and sold amazing results, and it is said that the first perfume she launched sold 70,000 bottles every hour.
By 2013, Beyoncé and Jay-Z had more than $1 billion in assets.
However, in May 2014, a video of Beyoncé's sister Solange beating up her brother-in-law Jay-Z in an elevator was exposed by the website TMZ. Curiously, Beyoncé, who was riding the elevator, watched indifferently.
And Jay-Z didn't dare to resist at all.
Soon, Jay-Z cheats and news of Beyoncé's preparation for divorce comes out.
But Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not respond positively until 2016, when Beyoncé released an album called Lemonade, claiming that the album helped her find her inner strength and become independent.
There is a song on the album called "Sorry" that is believed to be Beyoncé's allusion for Jay-Z's cheating, and the lyrics are written like this:
Now I regret that I accepted the marriage proposal that day
He always had all sorts of excuses
I pray to God to reveal His true nature
……
It wasn't until he lost me that he knew how to cherish it
He'd better go find the blonde girls with straight hair
Jay-Z also released a new album called 4:44, apologizing to Beyoncé.
The album was released in July 2017, and Beyoncé gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix babies in June, their second child, and as early as 2012, Beyoncé gave birth to a daughter.
Later, in an interview with The New York Times, Jay-Z admitted that he had sneaked up on him, and he also admitted that the two almost divorced at that time, but after receiving psychotherapy, they reconciled.
Beyoncé, on the other hand, also said in an interview that it is not so easy to balance career and family, to take care of children and have to date her husband, and what many people do not know is that she gave birth to twins after many miscarriages.
However, these difficulties and pains in life made her have a deeper understanding of life:
Pain and loss are actually a gift.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15">05.</h1>
I have seen such a sentence:
Only self-love, self-knowledge and self-control, and guiding life can derive divine power.
A self-loving person, with a clear self-awareness, and a high degree of self-control and self-discipline, they will not let themselves sink into negative emotions, but choose to constantly challenge themselves, overcome difficulties, and move forward.
Because of self-love, Beyoncé did not allow those negative emotions to overwhelm herself, for whatever reason she forgave Jay-Z, and most importantly, she also let herself go.
This experience made her reborn like nirvana, and she was more determined to pursue the goal.
Looking at the self-depraved stars in the entertainment industry, Beyoncé's self-love really hit a lot of people in the face.
Don't make any excuses for yourself to be willing to fall, learn to accept reality and failure calmly, and constantly grow into a better person, with such a sober cognition, you will go further.
