00:00I think Yonce is Beyonce, Miss Carter is Beyonce, Sasha Fierce is Beyonce, and I'm finally at a place where I don't have to

00:08kind of separate the two anymore. We're all one.

00:12More than the music, I'm proud of myself as a woman for taking the risks. I refuse to allow someone to put me in anybody's box.

00:42We started when we were nine years old, and here we are getting a Hollywood star.

01:11Dreams come true.

01:21A lot of the songs on the album a lot of people can relate to, so go out and get the album.

01:25I want to win an Oscar, and I want to win a Tony.

01:53I think I have a long career ahead of me.

02:17When I get on the stage, I have no idea what's in my head, because I turn into this crazy wild woman.

02:46We don't like the word breakup. It sounds really sad. We like to say that it's the end of a chapter in our lives.

06:17Y'all are my family. Houston is my home.

06:42Coachella is something that artists earn their way to, but there will never be, ever be another Beyoncé.

06:49All hail the queen!

07:06I wanted to be authentic to what is beautiful about the music in Africa.

07:25And to know that there are women around the world that don't have a voice.

07:28We have to use our voices and raise the awareness, and be a part of something where we can leave our legacy and help improve this world.
