Beyonce, Father Not so Crazy in Love Right Now
Daddy dearest? Not when it comes to managing your career. So Beyonce might say, as the diva opened up to Giant magazine recently about her issues with Matthew Knowles - and, yes, apparently there really is a publication known as Giant ... and her father really is simply named Matthew.
What other revelations can fans learn?
Beyonce reveals the duo often fought when she was an up-and-coming star, especially when "I'd say âno' to something and he'd book it anyway. Then I'd have to do it because I'd look bad (if I didn't)."
"It took a while for me and my dad to have an understanding, because he thinks everyone's supposed to work like him," she says. "When I turned 18 and started handling my business more, he went into shock."
So, how problematic is the feud? Consider this: Her new album, "B'Day," was recorded without her pop's knowledge. Come on, this is an independent woman!
"âDon't tell my daddy. Don't tell my mama. Don't tell anybody ⦠[including] the label,'" she admits ordering her studio team. "So two weeks later, I called my dad and said, âMy record's done.' He was, like, âWHAT!?'"
Fortunately, Beyonce's relationship with Jay-Z is drama-free. One MIGHT say they're crazy in live.
"It's very easy. He's so quick. And we respect each other. If I have any suggestions he respects it. If he has any suggestions, I respect it. It's just, I don't know, easy. And fun."
Quick? His wit? His rapping skills? His performance in the sack? That's left to us to decide ...

I love Beyonce but I think she really should be more of a Role Model in the way she dresses AS SHE CLAIMS TO BE A CHRISTIAN; she is also now a married woman and is not getting any younger (Mind you JayZ, I know you have not complained). For instance, during an award in 2009, comparing Taylor Swift's dressing to Mrs Carter's, it was obvious whose dressing was more of an example to follow. Beyonce is "big" enough as I believe that God is blessing her talent. Celebrities wear nice clothes and there really shouldn't be need for all that flesh flaunting; clothes can be complete and still look really nice. I love Beyonce but I think the dressing is getting a bit too far for what is expected of a dignified woman.

Beyonce seems like a fine young woman but I will never support her music until she stops wearing fur. There is no reason why animals have to be tortured and/or killed for the sake of fashion. As a celeb Beyonce should become a better role model and I firmly believe this.
