BIO

Beyoncé is one of the most iconic artists in the history of popular music. After attending several performing arts schools as a child, she emerged as a teen sensation in the late 1990s as the lead singer of the R&B group Destiny's Child, who would go on to be one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. After the group split in 2005, Beyoncé launched her solo career with her first solo album Dangerously In Love. Her 2008 album I Am... Sasha Fierce spawned several hit singles while winning six Grammy Awards, breaking the record for the most awards won by a female artist in one night. She followed with more groundbreaking albums, 4, Beyoncé and Lemonade, as well as THE CARTERS with her husband JAY-Z. Beyoncé has also starred in several films, such as The Pink Panther, Austin Powers and Dreamgirls.
