The renowned American singer Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has been candid about the challenges of fame and her process for creating music.
In a GQ interview, the celebrity revealed that, despite her widespread success, stardom can occasionally feel like a prison.
Beyoncé, who is well-known for revolutionising the music business, revealed that she now produces music at her own speed.
“I create at my own pace, on things that I hope will touch other people. I hope my work encourages people to look within themselves and come to terms with their own creativity, strength, and resilience,” she said.
She stressed that her focus is on storytelling, growth, and quality, rather than striving for perfection.
The singer explained that while working on projects like “Cowboy Carter” and other new ventures is liberating, the pressures of fame can sometimes be burdensome.
“It is fame that can at times feel like prison. So, when you don’t see me on red carpets, and when I disappear until I have art to share, that’s why,” Beyoncé said.
When asked about retirement plans, Beyoncé responded with her optimism, stating, “Good music and strong messages will never retire.”
Recall that Beyoncé recently launched her new whisky brand, SirDavis.
The singer shared the news of the release on Instagram, posting a photo of herself holding a whisky bottle and showcasing the bottle, which was branded with a golden horse.
Beyoncé included a line from her 2024 hit song “Bodyguard” in her caption.
“Davis in my bones,” she wrote.
The renowned master distiller Bill Lumsden and Moët Hennessy partnered to create the whisky brand.
“A marriage of the complexity of rye with the elegance of malted barley, finished to perfection in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, creating a harmony of spice with sublime hints of fruit,” is how the official website characterises the whisky.
