Beyonce: Singer, Actress and Role Model

Wouldn't you love to live like a celebrity? To have the fame, the fortune and live a luxurious lifestyle? Beyonce does it everyday and sometimes, she wishes she were anonymous.

In her new mini-documentary titled "Yours and Mine", the singer opens up about different subjects like body image, fame, feminism and her role as a mom and a wife. In the very beginning, Beyonce talks about being famous and how sometimes it's hard to do simple things like everyone else, for instance walking down the street by herself. Can you imagine not being able to walk somewhere by yourself? And having an entourage around you at all times? Wow, that is just crazy! She goes on by saying that when you're famous, you are not seen as a human; you become the property of the public.

While growing up, Beyonce didn't have it easy. She experienced a lot of drama and conflict in her life and the only way to escape from that was through music. While watching the documentary, the singer goes on about her upbringing and says something that really stood out and made me think; she said: "If I hadn't gone through some of the most painful experiences in my life.....I would not be me." I thought to myself 'that's true for everyone'. It's what we go through in life that makes us the person we are today, whether they are good or bad experiences.

For the last part of the short film, Beyonce dedicates it to the love she has for her music, her husband and her child. She loves doing what she does for a living as well as being a mom to Blue Ivy. She talks about marriage and how having somebody in your life to witness each other's ups and downs together is something amazing.

You can catch the full documentary on Beyonce's official website.
