 Beyonce Knowles: Marriage to Jay-Z is a "power struggle"
Grammy nominated Beyonce Knowles admits her 8-month marriage to Jay-Z is a "power struggle.
"But if I didn't respect someone, and they didn't have that strength, then I would be bored," Beyonce says in the January issue of Elle.
"I wouldn't be attracted to them," she adds.
And don't expect the 27-year-old to have kids any time soon.
"I'm terrified of having a child. No way!" she says. "I'm terrified of delivering a child because I saw my nephew being born. That traumatized me."
Beyonce Knowles' sister Solange Knowles welcomed Daniel in 2004.
Knowles adds, "I'm only 27. I've got time."
Beyonce Knowles, for the time being, is focusing on her career. Beyonce's album, I Am...Sasha Fierce was released Nov. 18, and her flick, Cadillac Records, hits theaters Friday.
Beyonce says that, playing tough talking jazz singer Etta James in the drama was a departure from her usual, sweet self.
"My mom had to leave the set. I don't normally curse. Maybe twice a year," Beyonce Knowles says. "I have to be really livid. Somebody saying things or scheduling something where I'm not in control."
The 27-year-old singer also says that, using all the profanity "was freeing, but it was also the most emotionally draining time of my life. Every day I would come home; my eyes would be completely swollen."
Beyonce Knowles' mom, Tina Knowles, also opened up about slapping her daughter for acting like a diva during a promotional appearance.
"My husband came up and said, 'Tina! She's got the No. 1 record on the radio!' I said, 'I dont care!'" Tina says. "I was terrified. I had seen people take your child and turn them into something you didnt want them to be.
"I taught my girls to pick up their own suitcases," she adds. "Pretty is as pretty does. Like my mother said, 'You got to be cute on the inside.'" |
