As her daughter Beyonce sits atop Pop’s throne with the help of many an empowering hit, her mother Celestine Beyince‘ (AKA Tina Knowles) has stepped into the limelight to share her story Texas Women’s Empowerment Foundation.
It was there, in a bid to inspire those in attendance, did Beyince’ tell the story of her life, taking her audience back to her humble beginnings in Galveston, Texas, the cruelty she suffered at the hands of the Catholic school her parents worked as indentured servants to place her in, and her marriage to businessman Mathew Knowles.
Unfortunately, contrary to the image thrown to the masses during Destiny’s Child‘s earlier years, Tina revealed that the marriage was anything but a happy one, taking a turn for the worse she learned she was pregnant with the baby that would grow up to become Beyonce.
A remarkable story below…
Truly inspiring.
While Beyonce’s pro-girl stance have at times seemed “gimmicky” to those unaware of her background, we’re sure her critics will let out an understanding “oh” once they see the above.
For, we’d challenge anyone not to be moved by the fact that the singer’s career has seen her put music to her mother’s story.
The importance of financial dependence in ‘Independent Women (Pt 1).’
Motherhood during marriage in ‘Mine.’
Betrayal in the seemingly shallow ‘Ring the Alarm’ or the emotive ‘Resentment.’
When one sees her from this angle (through eyes of her mother), it’s become pretty apparent that the agreeable, politically correct and at times boring Yonce is anything but, far braver and authentic than her own fans may even realise.
The woman who taught YAWNce how to be a lying, stealing fraud. You must be one proud Mama. You should’ve focused more on basic English. I know mentally disabled people who speak more eloquently than YAWNce.
Oh just STFU already!
SHUT UP
Go Tina! Very inspiring story
She has masculine features, regal woman tho, question to the Beyhive:
It is true that Beyoncé is Haitian?
She’s part French Creole, NOT Haitian
Creole are blacks too, some people say she is half white but both her parents are black, i know her mother have some white ancestors but she herself is not half white since both her parents are also black, there’s nothing wrong with being Haitian.
No one said they weren’t black. And who on earth said Beyonce was half white? She has not one white parent. But Beyonce is French creole mix still.
And your constant riding a Bey is very feminine. It’s possible that she could be Hatian because of the mulatto hatian migration into New Orleans. We often say Creole because it’s such a mix. Some of the people in New Orleans even have Latino ancestry by way of Honduras. Hence the reason some of us speak Spanish as well. All in all, still AfricanAmerican which is all inclusive.
Ok, thanks for the info, if science is right, then we all have Africa inside us.
Hmm I was thinking the same thing about Angelina Pitts long gaunt masculine horse face. #KeepItCute
The most beautiful woman in the world, let’s not, you’re making a fool of yourself.
I love your dedication to THAT woman…
That woman is an angel, an angel.
Satan was an angel too… So, I believe you.
Play the violins and cry me a river TGJ
It is a gimmick
so what, everyone, normal people and celebrities has had trials and tribulations Beyonce is no different stop the empowerment BS its just another gimmick of hers
Some people just don’t know when to just let it go. I sort of hate when Sam post articles like this because the commenters on here are to ignorant to appreciate anything outside of shading artist. It was an empowering message that I’m sure many women will benefit from. Go Ms. TIna!!!
She’s so ugly and look like a witch kii
I can’t believe I missed the Adele post, the hive are so pressed by everybody accomplishing success and surprising their fav in sales, acclaim, or talent.
*Scans post* I don’t see this ‘pressed hate you speak of.
Adele was awarded an Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list for services to music, and she received the award from Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace
Not impressive, if isn’t from her Madgesty, then it’s not a big deal, lol.
I’m confused. Did the Hive say anything negative about Adele. The only comment I saw was “Beyonce makes more than her” Which is basically the truth.
Don’t group the Hive together, because you don’t like what they have to say.
Everybody hollering hive this, Hive said this, are obviously bothered by the Hive. Why do some of the Hive’s opinions bother you??
Is it because are fave is the standard? kii
*our
S**** hive thank you you know what this haters will say all their lies hate on bey is ok with them but is not ok for we bey fans to defend her all this trash they talk about her for no reason let continue to love support our bey for life don’t let this haters win
Exactly. There was not even any hate. Lmao. They have such sheep mentality.
ADELE IS NOT A LIAR AND MUSIC INDUSTRY THIEF..BEYONCE IS A LIAR AND THIEF WHO DODGE COPYRIGHT LAWS. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BTWN ADELE’S SUCCESS AND BEYONCE THE THIEF

Aw that’s nice, Tina’s a very inspiring hardworking woman.
and y’all really think bey is dying of unhappiness in her marriage. no way her or solange would ever take any s*** from any man. won’t be surprised if solo ran up on mathew on good time, he def caught the hands. deadbeat
Don’t remember where I heard this, But i’m sure Solange whooped up Matthew’s b*** when she heard about him cheating on Tina.
Oh, ok.
I really enjoyed this.
I do think this is nice! But Beyonce Stans should be more friendly on other posts that aren’t about her like they expect people to on here.It was very Inspiring tho.
….so what happened to Mrs Hernandez breaking the US market. kii
*tumbleweed rolls past*

TINa Should teach her daughter thiefyonce not to steal work from other women who have suffered hardships and are trying to make a success of themselves. theif b**** beyonce steals work and claim it as her own her entire rip off career
stay pressed
The whole family is so damn tacky when it comes to dressing.
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your
blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got
to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way
of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for
only having one or two images. Maybe you could space
it out better?
