Check out Beyonce on the cover of the annual Style + Design issue of Complex Magazine. The 29 year-old spoke about her recent travels, inspiration and of course of the new album, 4. Peep a snippet below:
ON KANYE WEST’S SONG “RUNAWAY”:
Although it wasn’t her first time working with ’Ye, Beyoncé was particularly keen to reconvene in the studio with the man who made the moody “Runaway,” a song that drove her to the edge of tears the first time she heard it in a van heading to one of Jay’s shows. ’Ye played it for Bey on his birthday.“The fact that he’s belting out his pain, his confusion, and his anger, with no pre-written lyrics, was so moving,” she says. “He’s singing his heart out for five minutes. He is so vulnerable. I love when an artist can be so honest.”
ON PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN:
Whenever I feel bad, I use that feeling to motivate me to work harder,” says a much wiser, more mature Beyoncé, who learned from some early ordeals, including a period of depression during the first breakup of her first group, Destiny’s Child. “I only allow myself one day to feel sorry for myself. People who complain really get on my nerves. When I’m not feeling my best I ask myself, ‘What are you gonna do about it?’ I use the negativity to fuel the transformation into a better me.” [ READ MORE ]

I paid $32.67 for a XBOX 360 and my mom got a 17 inch Toshiba laptop for $94.83

i wonder if the beyonce pics are ripp off from another artist. since ppl say stuff like that. I am not tryna be funny of anything i am curious
Love her!!!!
I wish Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Britney would stop parading around in their damn underwear.
Adele is proof that real talent and good music doesn’t need an oversexed image and over saturation to sell records.
i sooo agree with u on this one, thank heavens for sensible comments like urs
I love Adele!
co-sign
Does adele have their bodies? I dont think so. Learn your history, josephine baker went bare chested, tina turner, diana, madonna, mariah, cher, janet… they all wore revealing outfits, and if they were at their prime now, they would do it again, this is their bodies, they are artists, young, secure and comfortable enough, and there is nothing oversexed about beyonce, she keeps herself sexy and soes it tastefully; she doenst do it to sell any records, her albums are not even designed to fit desperately the charts or radios like some of these pop stars, I just hate when ppl complain about somebody showing skin, did you ever go to the beatch or the club? Ive seen way more skin and it was tasteless furthermore.
@YWAN STFU lots of female artist out there who sell records without taking their clothes…Lauren Hill is a perfect example.! plus this isnt what beyonce use to do she was so classy but i guess she needs to sell this wack ass album she has so there goes.
you must be fat lmao….
The hatred the black women have towards each other is sicking. You’ll love to talk ish because life isn’t treating you well….it called making better choices.Now you wanna talk about Lauren Hill..she hasn’t had a hit in over 7 yrs and her husband isn’t even her kids father. Im gonna need you to compare someone with some relevance in music is of 7/19/11 Thanks
no matter how you spin it or whatever the reason, u have to admit beyonce does wear next to nothing. argue as much as u may she’s been getting naked. but just like over singing the song sometimes she’s just doing way too much #fact
im so proud of Beyonce. She is so inspiring i get emotional every time i hear end of time, and other songs on her album 4
BEYONCE PR TEAM AT WORK , BEYONCE LOOK’S TACKY AND WACKY !!! SHE ALL PLAYED OUT !!!STOP LIEING
LOOK WHO’S BACK!!!!!!,ITS ABOUT TIME YOU STARTED HATING AGAIN I WAS WORRIED FOR A MIN THAT YOU HAD GOT A LIFE OR SOMETHING,PSSH SILLY ME!!
i agree with I LOVE THIS GAME…..she is beautiful but…so played out its like i been seeing this same pic constantly since 2000…..
DOPE!!!!!!!!
@ I love this game
Do you mean “She’s” all played out?
Also the correct spelling is “lying” not “lieing’
Go to school or back to school and quit leaving comments on concreteloop, you illiterate freak
dang! you told her/him….lol
I am sick and tired of this chick. She’s just a product; she’s so manufactured. And for her to hang around immature, b–chy people like Kanye is sad. She’s not that talented to begin with. She’s much talented than a lot of her peers, Britney, Gaga, Rihanna, Ciara, Jlo, Kesha, Keri Hilson, and Katy Perry, but the only reason why she’s where she’s at is because of marketing and image (beauty, sex, body) and it’s a shame.
The first sign of a hater: They cannot admit and/or respect the obvious greatness of someone. Do not try to deem her talent exaggerated when you very well know she is one of, if not THE most talented artist of this generation.
lmao you sound like a retard…Great marketing will get you everywhere…You have your opinion and its valid if its how you truly feel the validity of your comment docent make sense
Beauty and body is shameful in 2011–beauty will always be a seller….plus other than the masses with our commenting..you never hear anything negative about her image..—she definitely know how to seperate her personal life from her stage life….
Im not even a fan or a hater…its just a fact
@ doll-1
if youre tired why coming back commenting? if she is a product then why can they make another one? you guys are sick individuals, after her 15 years in the game of hard work and success, comments like these are IRRELEVANT, you lost at “she is not talented” and “she is where she because of marketing”, bitch please sit down miserable and stop writing because you make yourself soundin like a damn fool!
Turth – I don’t think you’re a hater. Beyonce is overexposed and has been for a long time. I was a fan previously but I’m over it. What is interesting is that Beyonce is Country (note Capital C). It’s hilarious to see her acting like a glamourous wise woman has seen and knows so much. PR is a mutha isn’t it??
Again… “YAWN!!” for the WIN! PRECISELY! What the hell does Beyonce have to prove!?! Absolutely nothing. And marketing!?! Ummm what marketing besides a few live performances, boo? Err’ybody up in here knows that this was one of her LEAST, scratch that, THE least marketed albums thus far. Yet hmmmm… she still had the 3rd highest-grossing 1st week sales of the year. Hatin HO’S. HAVE. A. SEAT! Bow down before King B!
Only on a Beyonce post where if somebody has one thing negative to say about her, stans treat it like the world coming to an end. Since when did this woman pay you to be her spokeperson? This is America, if you can’t accept the fact that not everyone cares for everything she does, too DAMN bad.
Wow. Beautiful Beyonce. I love how she’s just so lovely inside and out. Gotta love her.
Her body looks nice, real nice, but that goon zombie makeup is a bit much.
Everybody do no find what she do as greatness
Every body do not find what she do as greatness
Every body do not unda-stand brokin engrish.
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO @ITSTREYTREYBABY
A lot of the Bey haters are illiterates smh
She looks GORGEOUS AS ALWAYS
Not all.
LOOOL -dies-
Werk it Honey B! I love successful women, especially ones of color. Instead of hating, this woman deserves an applause for her work. Within the industry she is WELL-respected so why can’t she be on the outside..
KING B!
Hope Foxy takes some tips on how a photo-shoot should look like….that’s all I’m sayin.
I am a fan of Beyonce, love her. But everyone has their own opinion. Why do people feel the need to defend artists, especially a mega-star like Beyonce??? She is going to sale records regardless….. And it’s always the same people! Everytime there’s something posted about that particular artist, here they come running to the rescue like their name is Capt. Sav-a-hoe. You’re not getting paid or getting any type of recognition to do so! Beyonce is not reading your comments and saying “Oh there’s my biggest fan, she/he had my back on some blog site. Let’s go find him/her…” Ya’ll crack me up trying to come hard at ppl because they have no interest in Beyonce and/or her music. Everybody is different and do not have to think or like the same things as you. Stop taking comments so personal, especially when 1) THE COMMENT IS NOT EVEN ABOUT YOU!!!!! 2) They have no personal effect on you or your life. For goodness sake BEYONCE doesn’t know you OR EVEN KNOW YOU EXIST! #fuckinweirdos
Honestly, do not waste your time on these people. I’ve typed similar posts hoping maybe they’ll grow up but no such luck. They’re lacking common sense so what you just typed is going through one eyeball and out the other (you get my point).
everyone has their own opinion which means everyone is free, if they feel the need to defend, let them be, beyonce herself cant do it, if her fans have time to do it, let them do it, u have no iea the impact of her songs or influence on people, for some ppl, its that important; just like haters are free to hate, let the stans do their job and move on period point blank
LMAO@ the spanx she is rocking to keep that gut in. I don’t care what anyone says this chick is hitting 40. Everyone lies about their age in the industry to guarantee longevity. In any case, is that Grace Jones as the head of the skull on her shirt? That wind machine is getting so played out. I see someone thinks she is Tyra and is trying to smile with her eyes…lol. Beyonce stop watching Top Model bc those poses & faces are amateur too.
As usual you sound like a bitter idiot!

Just curious, but does Beyonce’ have a high school diploma?
Is she paying you to know her business about if she finish High School??? DID YOU FINISH HIGH SCHOOL??? Kiss teet, it’s like she damn if she does, damn if she don’t!!! WTH happened about liking her music not her personal life?? Only this generation- disgusting!!!!
^ Is she paying you to defend her? ONYX! was just asking a question .. it’s not that serious.
yes she has!
i see the stan fans are out in force stamping on anyone who dont see their queen as they do
hard as it to believe muchless accept not everybody worship at the feet of Bey. there are some of us who are proud to walk upright and look people in the eye and see them for what they are. accept in. its called life.
oh and if anyone else had release that mediocre album beside Bey, it would have flopped HARD.
No thank you sweetie…Im sure your daddy and your mommy keeps you busy sucking your dick…BTW take this nonsense to
media take out
suck it real good! and dont use your teeth.
this is for SUCKMYDICK comment….If you’re looking for a ghetto site with this nonsense…go to media take out
“With a lot of success comes a lot of negativity.” – Beyonce Knowles.
A lot of you guys here prove that this quote is so right
Please the universe needs a break “B”
Then you should go take some time out, go on vacation, have a little bit of rest, because `B` ain´t going nowhere.
Beyonce’s my girl! I love how she’s doing her
To Beyonce’s PR: please book in some US promo
very Rhiannah
You ppl are hilarious when it comes to this chick, she is just a woman doing her thing. i am not a big Beyonce fan i bought B’day because I liked some of the songs, like I do all artists. People are telling each other to ‘suck thier dicks” and calling one another idiots because of a post. I guess we have to much time on our hands and not enough to do with our own lives, if we have to defend a wealthy woman to this extent.
Only 48 comments? That’s unusual for a Beyonce post.
That’s a purrrty white lady, lol, just had to do it.
I JUST IGNORE NEGATIVE COMMENTS ABOUT BEYONCE BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY IM STILL GONNA BE A BEYONCE FAN REAGARDLESS IF WHAT A HATER SAY
SPELL CHECK : REGARDLESS OF WHAT A HATER SAY
I can’t stand Beyonce selfish scandalous behind…….but I dag gone sure wouldn’t compare her to Lauryn Hill. Lauryn Hill can’t sing, she have 5 kids and not married, now she is on number 6. Nawwwwwwwww, Lauryn is no one’s role model, not even her own kids. Lauryn fell off big time, jeez. As for Beyonce she is just a greedy lying jealous skank. Now she is saying she doesn’t want any kids until she is 40. Really Beyonce? stop lying, you just don’t want any ugly guppy looking babies,lol. What guarantees Bey that she will have cute kids. Solange ugly as crap and her son along with her. I still can’t believe they have the same parents.
Beyonce. Nothing is authentic about you. I’m sorry. Look that word up sweetie. And no God did not give you talent. Goodness, how catty was that comment. Your parents (daddy) just primed you from a young age. You are a disciplined artist. But nothing separates you from the other artist so much. You are not original, you’re not doing anything new or ground breaking. Learn some humility. As far as I’m concerned, the only thing that makes you different is that you are such a liar. Yes, you’re famous and all, but you are Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Aaliyah and oh, so many more. You’re rich and famous, but there is so much more in this life to be honey and you are not it. I’m sorry. I was liking you until I read this article. You have so much to learn. And you sound a little insecure.
cool story bro. now back to reality where she wins and your anonymous self loses.
I love Beyoncé.
But there’s too much photoshop, it’s horrible. Beyoncé didn’t have to accepted it.
I love this picture!
I WISH THIS BITCH WOULD GO SOMEWHERE AND SIT DOWN #HAVESOMEBABIES OR SOMETHING. RUNNING AROUND TAKING PICTURES. GIRL BO!!
