Becoming Beyoncé: The Untold Story

Product Information

Personally, I found it hard to keep track of the people being mentioned, which was very frustrating. It paints Beyonce as something of a cipher; emotionless and driven only by her own standards for perfection. Becoming Beyonce isn't just a Beyonce biography in fact I would argue its more of a biography of her parents Matthew Knowles and Tina Knowles-Lawson.

This book follows the outline of a nonfiction or historical book more than a story, which may make it seem dry to people.It will be his second television miniseries, the first airing on NBC in 2000 and based on his book, Jackie, Ethel, Joan.

I also took a liking to the direct quotes that Taraborrelli was able to get from people who had a part in Beyonce’s life.

Even in the beginning she had a little “bow down bitches” deep down as she seems non-plussed about it all and handles it in a cold “it’s just business manner.

I think, the last song of hers which I really enjoyed was Survivor, which came out about 16 years ago. As a painfully shy six-year-old singing in her parents' kitchen back in the late eighties, it was impossible to imagine the meteoric rise that Beyoncé Knowles would go on to achieve.
