00:00Singer, songwriter, producer and actress Beyoncé Knowles is a superstar both on the
00:04screen and in the studio, but what are some things you may not have known about this amazing
00:08performer?
00:09The future Queen Bee was born on the 4th of September, and her husband Jay-Z on the 4th
00:13of December, and 4 is their favorite number.
00:16They were married on the 4th of April, and in lieu of rings, each have a number 4 tattooed
00:21on their finger.
00:22Not to mention the fact that her fourth album is called simply 4, or that the middle name
00:27of their little girl Blue Ivy comes from the Roman New Rule for 4.
00:31Speaking of her family, after the arrival of their first child, Jay released the song Glory
00:35with the newborn Blue credited as a collaborator because her cries are used at the end of the
00:40track.
00:41This means that Beyoncé's daughter, at just two days old, became the youngest person
00:45to ever have a song on the Billboard Hot 100.
00:48The superstar is allergic to most perfumes, which makes it a bit odd that she has her own
00:52fragrance line, until we learn that all of her scents are chemically modified so you can
00:57see if she won't react to them.
00:58The former Destiny's Chance singer has also racked up a number of firsts in her career,
01:03including being the most nominated female artist in history of the Grammys, and the first ever
01:07woman to take home six Grammys on one night.
01:10She's also one of the few songwriters to have a word they coined officially added to the Oxford
01:14English Dictionary.
01:15In Beyoncé's case, that word is bootylicious.
