description: Beyonc Knowles is a woman who began her career at the age of eight performing in pageant shows and talent contests honing her craft through her teenage years until at the age of 16 she had her first number one record with Destiny's Child. That hit-making trio launched Beyonc's successful solo career catapulting her as of 2014 to #1 on Forbes annual list of most wealthy celebrities--the same year she made the cover of Time. BECOMING BEYONC is not only the story of struggle sacrifice and what it takes to make it in the cut-throat record industry it's the story of the great rewards of such success and the devastating toll it often takes on the human spirit.
