Overview

Beyoncé is one of the world's biggest pop stars—and this lavishly illustrated book is the first to celebrate the talented singer, songwriter, producer, and actress in the glam style she deserves! Since rising to fame with the R&B group Destiny's Child, Beyoncé Knowles has enjoyed success after success, starting with her debut solo album, the multiplatinum, Grammy®-award winning Dangerously in Love. Beyoncé follows the artist's life (including her marriage to hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and the birth of their daughter, Blue Ivy) and career, her wildly popular music, videos, and movies, and her role as a fashion icon.

From Barnes & Noble

From the outside, the life of Beyoncé Knowles seems to have been one astonishing success after another: She was just fifteen when her group, Destiny's Child, was signed to a Columbia Records contract; she was still a teenager when she had her first starring role in a movie; her debut album went multi-platinum in three countries; and when she made $40 million last year, experts noted that she would have made more if she hadn't taken off to have a baby. The biography by music biographer Andrew Vaughan (Shania; The Eagles; Taylor Swift) won't instruct you on how to become Beyoncé, but it will tell you how she achieved that feat. A Sterling pictorial biography.
