Matthew might not be likable in many eyes, but darn sure can’t call him a bad father! That man believed in his child and sacrifices a whole lot for his children as you should suppose too! Not many can relate to this!💯

All facts

5:36 Beyoncé work ethic is one of the reason I admire her so much. She knew what she wanted since she was 5 and worked her ass off to get where she’s at now. She’s inspiring, motivating and empowering.

her family is honest.. no wonder she is so humble cause they dont hold back.. "you didnt have much friends"

[@reaunasims]

2:44 BEYONCÉ IS A TRIPLE THREAT!!! She has pure talent. She’s a vocalist, entertainer, entrepreneur, writer, producer, actress, mother and a ICON. No other artist can compare to Beyoncé sorry not sorry. She remains untouchable when it comes to the stage and her music.

she was extra overly confident when she was younger, which was needed for her to become the ultimate Diva that she is now.

[@jags.3389]

Matthew might be so many things but he sure did make that sacrifice for his daughter to be. Just as a father should. The world’s got to give him his crown for that.

[@bagabones5580]

Everyone used to hate on her so bad and hated how she was so confident which is ridiculous because if she was a man people would be clapping and proud of her. Now people love it and come to the realisation that a woman can be proud of herself and want to be at the top while being humble. Beyonce wouldn’t be beyonce without that fire in her belly and that sass or that mindset that she will be at the top, like she said she’s talented and with that talent she rode to the absolute top. There are so much men who have this mindset and are constantly rewarded with praise for this attitude and are even rude sometimes. Look like at Jay-Z nearly every song he has is talking about how he’s a big deal and he gets everything. Or Kanye who’s known for his ego and people absolutely loved him for it. Also I gotta give Matthew his props he made destiny’s child think like adults about their business from a young age. He made sure they understood it’s a dog eat dog world and they had to be beasts in everything they did. He made sure they saw the goal and didn’t look anywhere else, he’s the reason why they didn’t become wild teenagers who lost their mind when they saw a-bit of money or fame.

This was kinda sad because beyonce and her family were really going out all their way to try to impress Kate, and for Kate to be so disrespectful to beyonce was wrong.

[@ogdvb]

Oh gosh! I was just 8 and It was my very first time visiting the US with my parents in early July 2003 when I first saw this on TV☝🏼🙌🏼 Ever since then we all became witnesses to what Beyonce became and how her true excellence emerged. But I definitely one of those who separates those Destiny’s Child and early Beyoncé’s solo years from what she started to approach with the release of the great masterpiece which was the “4”. So I appreciate Matthew as the man who guided Beyoncé through those early years, but I definitely love the freedom and risks that Beyoncé started to take after her split with Matthew-the producer way more. But the nostalgic feeling that I’m getting watching this old footage is very sweet is absolutely precious🤗

[@m44sheehan22]

why is it i feel like she was more open here than later?

She's always hated interview but at the earlier stages of her career she had to do them! No way around it. But even during those interviews she was still very private like her and Jay Z openly talked about their relationship years after starting dating. Now she paid her dues and stopped talking to the press altogether. She releases her stuff and go live her life very privately.

Read the book "becoming Beyonce..." he also pointed out that she wrote dangerously in love in her her bedroom sitting on the floor when she was a teenager and she sung it to him and he thought it was like the best song he's ever heard back then...she wrote a lot of songs with him in mind...that's how messed up that fool was

[@BrownGirlColorStruckWorld]

It's interesting to see where they placed Kelly at the table. The order is Beyonce, Solange (who was coming out with a record and movie), Tina (to jump in and help control the interview), Kelly (cause she's beyonce's sista- but can't sit with her and solange), and Matthew (to monitor everyone). The seating is arranged in who they want her to ask questions to.

[@usedbyjesus]
