Beyonce’s ‘Garage’ spread is the gift that keeps on giving.

For, her interview with the publication has seen her discuss her passion for literature, motherhood and photography.

Read below…

On literature:

I would love for my younger fans to read What Will It Take To Make a Woman President? by Marianne Schnall. It’s a collection of interviews and essays by great women, including Maya Angelou, Gloria Steinem, and Melissa Etheridge. They will inspire you to become a better leader.

On her proudest moment:

Out of everything I’ve accomplished, my proudest moment hands down was when I gave birth to my daughter Blue.

On arts:

I find myself most drawn to painting and photography. There’s a release and an immediacy there that helps me escape from my other projects…My mother is a huge art collector and she always encouraged me from a young age to invest in art. I travel a lot and I love going to art galleries and museums in different cities with my family and friends. I’m really into the work of Kara Walker, Tracey Emin, Aaron Young, and Donald Judd.

On being the captain of her career:

 Over time, I have learned to focus on the things I want to focus on in the time frame that I set. I no longer have to work based on someone else’s expectations or pressure. I put enough pressure on myself! I love being 100% involved with all my projects and now I’m fortunate enough to do that.

    Yas bish!!! I read this on Billboard yesterday. I loved the Question. How does it feel being your own boss? Bey is straight annihilating the game! COME ON THROUGH MOTHA!!! I NEED B6 NOW!!!

    • King Mark111 /.\ March 10, 2016

      A boss that doesn’t own her music ,asters? How? lol

      • HailBeysus March 10, 2016

        Don’t try it Marsha. You already know how this ends. With you fleeing the scene like your pet below ?

  2. whoknowswhat March 10, 2016

    I almost fell out my seat when I read literature in the title. LOL Because we all know Beyonce as basic as they can get. Everything she says is generic, repetitive, and rehearsed. She still that b**** though. That aside, i’m so anticipating this next album, she about to bring some hurtin to the game.

    • The-Engineer March 10, 2016

      Your comment is repetitive and generic for a hater

      • Len March 10, 2016

        Now this is the truth. If Beyoncé was so generic and illiterate, how does she manage to run a $500 Million brand?

  3. fatusankoh March 10, 2016

    Omg very good I love the interview you go queen bey I can’t wait for the album

    After watching her Made in America Festival performance, I noticed a more visual, artistic approach to the set design far beyond just strobe lights. Therefore, I can believe that. Now, she talking about she’s a fan of literature; I’m going to need some receipts such as depth character insight, substantive finding, and theoretical analysis, before I believe any of that extra sh*t she said.

    • MsYonce March 10, 2016

      So what’s wrong with her being a fan of literature? You don’t need any receipt of what she does behind closed doors shut up.

      • MsYonce March 10, 2016

        She’s not good with interviews but if you think she can’t read then you’re just backwards

      • MsYonce March 10, 2016

        Some of y’all really believe that she can’t read lool its really sad. Oh and posting interviews still doesn’t mean s***. I swear y’all are backwards

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy March 10, 2016

        Just as Donald Trump would be a horrible president, Beyonce isn’t intellectually deep. Now, I do think she’s a smart woman, which are two different things; however, she’s just not academically inclined. Furthermore, her push to bring up Maya Angelou and feminism are the definition of pretentious.

      • LDN Chick March 10, 2016

        Oh so you know her grades in school now?

    • Royalkev March 10, 2016

      Not sure you’ll get those receipts from Bey, she’s not living for the world these days. When it comes to her personal life, there’s absolutely NUFFIN’ she feels obligated to prove to anyone anymore!

  5. Arfa March 10, 2016

    Flop

  6. YOUR MADGEsty March 10, 2016

    Now you know that DAVID incorporated “literature” in the title as subtle shade. LMFAO! If you haven’t noticed, he slyly shades Rih. and Bey. all the time but is not as overt with it like SAMantha.

    .

    Anyhow, I wouldn’t necessarily classify that book “To Make a Woman President” as that of ‘literature’ per say especially if we are basing it on what literature is in the classic sense. It’s moreso along the lines of philosophy/feminist philosophy or, in layman terms, a ‘self-help’ book from the female perspective. Also, since when where Gloria Steinhem and Melissa Etheridge literary figures?

    .

    I just want THE MUSIC! Hurry up Queen; I’m waiting.

  7. Ciara Stan March 10, 2016

    Beyonce can’t read and has a 3rd grade education at best.

    • RihYonce March 10, 2016

      Beyoncé made it all the way till high school. Didn’t graduate but she’s the highest paid black entertainer , while your fav is busy trying to pull 15 million out of her baby daddy with her broke ass , go buy “Jackie”

      • Ciara Stan March 10, 2016

        You Stan for two slutty uneducated thots. Their beauty and brains are jokes compared to Ciara’s. Y’all b**** mad because y’all fav is a r*****.

    • Everyone’s A Critic March 10, 2016

      Who needs a degree when you’re Schoolin Life..

    • Okayyyy March 10, 2016

      Damn, illiteracy and a third grade education resulted in half a billion dollars? Tell me, how does the correlation between your education and level of success compare?

      • LB March 10, 2016

        Receipts of half a billion dollars please?

  8. Barb-wire March 10, 2016

  9. Weezy Tha Goat March 10, 2016

    Okay but did she talk about the release date of B6? That’s all I care about TBH

    • OVO Gurl March 10, 2016

      • Weezy Tha Goat March 10, 2016

  10. RihYonce March 10, 2016

    Okay Honey B where is B6!? I need it now !! Her team has been saying “soon” for months now lol I’m tired of formation

  11. RihYonce March 10, 2016

    I feel like Beyoncé is going to be petty & release it right before the tour , we are not going to know the lyrics Lol

  12. LB March 10, 2016

    Why she lying though? We all know the closest Yonce had gotten to a book is by reading (Lol) Blue a children’s bedtime story, and she even struggles with that

    • RihYonce March 10, 2016

      That weak ass shade. Beyoncé can read idk where tf y’all get these lies from . Wendy Williams? What are you doing with your life ? Section 8? Living off the government? Internet trolls make me sick , fuckkkkh off

      • bash March 10, 2016

        You do realize he is as pathetic as his shade right… Continuously comes to a post of an artist he claims not to like for attention… Ignore him like I will when he tries to respond to my comment…(he won’t respond now tho because he knows he will be paid dust) now kids, enough attention for this true definition of a loser

    The devil is a liar!

  16. HailBeysus March 10, 2016

    Kiii did Moldy Vaginaa already flee the scene ?????! She keeping them Navy characteristics ???!

  17. .:: Centurion (14 #1s) ::. March 10, 2016

    In terms of art, she should do everyone a favour and stop stealing. At least give credit where it’s due. I don’t why she still isn’t locked up in some maximum security prison in Thailand. She’s already been caught stealing twice this year already;
    1. She stole footage from a documentary for her Formation music video.
    2. This: http://fotos.fotoflexer.com/6d5f6c46c646801c4f10f2e6108f0462.jpg

    _____________________________

    People say this all the time, but I feel it when it comes from Bey. She’s a go-getter and it’s nothing like going after what you want all on your own terms! This is exactly the point in life where I want to be and Bey’s a perfect example of it! #SoBeyInspired
