Looking at Beyonce is similar to looking at myself in a mirror. I see beauty, hardwork, power, and intelligence.



I've never been one to pattern the things that I do after someone else. But i am one to become inspired by someone else. I consider myself a blooming flower. A flower that needs it sown elements to grow and bloom properly, but also the help and guidance of others to bloom to my fullest potential.



I first became inspired by Beyonce when I was aound 8 years old in the year 2001. During this year, Beyonce was not yet a solo artist, but a member of the former group Destiny's Child. Their first album, Writing's on the Wall, was released and went straight to number 1 on the charts. There are a lot of songs that I remember hearing and enjoying, but not as much as I enjoyed listening to Destiny's Child.
