A Clearer Understanding

          Those of you who know Beyoncé, knows that she is a very well known artist and one of the greatest singers of all time. Personally, I chose the documentary Life is But a Dream because the majority of people don't know everything celebrities go through and also because I love Beyoncé. In Life is But a Dream Beyoncé shows a side that no one knows about her. After watching this documentary I have a clearer understanding on who Beyoncé really is and how her everyday life really goes. It also made me love her even more! Although you only see what the media give you, her real life and the life you see are very well different.
          One of many things that come with being an artist is knowing how much to tell your fans and how much to keep to yourself. Something Beyoncé had to personally go through was firing her manager which was her dad. By this decision, Beyoncé was sadden, but relieved. At least once in everyone's lifetime they will have to make a decision onto where to draw the line between family and business. Another thing Beyoncé personally went through was having a miscarriage. By getting through that, she went and wrote lyrics, in which she described, "The most saddest song I've ever wrote." Her lyrics is her way of letting out all the emotions she have inside of her. These are just two of the numerous things Beyoncé, and other artists, have to go through in their personal lives as celebrities.
          Sometimes the media can be really cruel towards celebrities. While Beyoncé was pregnant with her daughter, Blue Ivy, the media started rumors about how it was a fake pregnancy. She was so shocked about this statement and the fact that her fans actually started to believe it was true. So on this documentary Beyoncé actually showed her bare stomach and her baby bump to prove that the rumors were wrong. The reason of me telling you this is because you shouldn't always believe what people tell you, in this case it's their job to make celebrities look bad.
          As you can see Beyoncé go through more things than she appear to be going through. We may think celebrities are perfect when in reality they go through the same things as we do. I really hope this blog was helpful to many. I also hope you'll have a clearer understanding on the lifestyle of Beyoncé.
