Beyoncé’s Early Life

She was born as Beyoncé Giselle Knowles on September 5, 1981, which makes Beyoncé’s age to be 36. She was born in Houston, Texas to Mathew Knowles, who was a Xerox sales manager, and Celestine “Tina” Knowles, a salon owner. Her younger sister, Solange, is also a singer.

Beyoncé was into singing from the time she was very young. She joined an all-girl singing group with her childhood friend, Kelly Rowland. Initially, the group’s name was “Girl Tyme,” but they struggled to gain momentum in the music industry.

In 1996, they were finally signed by Columbia Records. That’s when they decided to change the group’s name to Destiny’s Child.

After few years, the group sold out concerts and became famous for their amazingly popular tracks like, “Say My Name,” “Survivor,” and “Bootylicious.” Destiny’s Child began to top the charts, eventually becoming a household name.

Lemonade, Beyoncé’s latest album, has not disappointed fans, either. The album ranked No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.
